TIGER DANCER BOLTS OUT OF THE GATE
TO TAKE A GIGANTIC LEAD OVER THE REST OF THE FIELD
WHO ALL LOOKED STUNNED TO BE LEFT THAT FAR BEHIND
THE FILLY HAS SEPARATED HERSELF FROM THE FIELD
BY AT LEAST 20 LENGTHS IN THE EARLY GOING

AND NOW THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET
AS SUDDENLY FROM THE CLOUDS ---
DUSTY HAS MADE AN IMPRESSIVE POWERFUL MOVE
FROM FAR BACK TO IMPROVE HER POSITION

THE TIGER DANCER FANS ADORNED IN WHISKER FACE TIGER MAKEUP
ARE GOING WILD AS THEIR FILLY IS SHOWING THE COLTS
JUST HOW TO WIN A RACE

TRY TO CATCH UP
AND NOW JOHN HENRY IS DOING EXACTLY THAT
HE IS CLOSING THE HUGE GAP WITH EVERY STRIDE HE TAKES!
