WE NOW TURN YOU OVER TO OUR GUEST TRACK ANNOUNCER

======== WILD WHISKERKINS ========

THE HORSES ARE ALL STANDING QUIETLY EXCEPT FOR CIGARSHOP
WHO SEEMS TO BE ANXIOUS AND UPSET OVER SOMETHING ~
POSSIBLY THE EMPTY GATE WHERE TIGER DANCER SHOULD BE?

WE ARE READY TO RUN IN THE RUFFARAMA STAKES

AND.................... AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO

BOLTING OUT OF THE GATE WITH SUPER SONIC SPEED IS
JOHN HENRY WHO TAKES COMMAND OF THE EARLY LEAD

IT'S A FEW LENGTHS BACK TO
BLUNNY ~ OLDOWAN ~ CATALINA ~ RUFFIAN + DUSTY

AND THE EARLY TRAILERS ARE CRIMINAL TYPE AND CIGARSHOP
WHO IS SHOWING ABSOLUTELY NO SPEED OR INTEREST IN RUNNING

================ OUT OF THE TURN THEY GO ================

AFTER A LOT OF BUMPING AND SHUFFLING AROUND A NEW LEADER
HAS EMERGED AS CATALINA SHOWING BRILLIANT SPEED FLEW RIGHT
PAST JOHN HENRY WHO LOST A LOT OF GROUND ON THE TURN

CATALINA IS A FILLY ON FIRE AND EXTENDING HER LEAD OVER THE FIELD

BLUNNY GAINED GROUND HANDLING THE TURN WELL AND HAS MOVED
UP INTO 2ND RIGHT BEHIND CATALINA

CRIMINAL TYPE ALSO FOUND HIS BEST STRIDE AND IS ON THE MOVE
FROM THE BACK OF THE PACK

RUFFIAN IS NEXT ALONG WITH JOHN HENRY + OLDOWAN

DUSTY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRACK IS JUST A LENGTH BACK

AND CIGARSHOP IS ALL ALONE VERY FAR BACK

=========== THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH ===========

AND IT'S STILL CATALINA SHOWING THE WAY IN FLASHY FILLY STYLE

BLUNNY CONTINUES RUNNING STRONGLY IN 2ND

IT'S A FEW LENGTHS BACK TO CRIMINAL TYPE + JOHN HENRY


=========== AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME! ============

CATALINA SHOWING NO SIGNS OF TIRING IS RUNNING LIKE A CHAMPION

BUT HOLD ON FOLKS......

THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET SCREAMING AS ONE HORSE HAS SUDDENLY
ROARED AND IS FLYING UP THE RAIL AS IF SOMEONE LIT HER TAIL ON FIRE!

RUFFIAN HAS TURNED HER INNER CHEETAH LOOSE AND IS PASSING
EVERYONE IN HER WAY

SHE HAS CLAWED HER WAY UP TO CATALINA AS THE 2 FEISTY FILLIES
ARE NOW ENGAGED IN A TIGHT MATCH RACE

NECK + NECK ~ STRIDE FOR STRIDE
A WHISKER SEPARATES THESE 2 FILLIES

BLUNNY STILL RUNNING WELL IS NEXT

JOHN HENRY IS JUST OFF OF HIS TAIL

CRIMINAL TYPE JUST A HALF LENGTH BEHIND JOHN HENRY

OLDOWAN IS NEXT AS CIGARSHOP FINALLY WOKE UP AND RAN ---
ALTHOUGH WITH NOT MUCH ENTHUSIASM

NOW IT'S DUSTY WHO FINDS HERSELF ALONE AT THE BACK
AFTER ALMOST CLIPPING HEELS ON THE TURN - - -
LOSING ALL MOMENTUM AND STRUGGLING TO KEEP UP

THE CROWD'S ROAR IS SO LOUD THAT IT'S DIFFICULT TO EVEN
HEAR MY RACE CALL OVER THEIR SCREAMS

CATALINA IS ALL OUT BUT NOT GIVING IN

RUFFIAN WITH A FIERCE DETERMINATION HAS JUST PUT HER TINY NOSE
IN FRONT OF CATALINA WHO HAS BEEN BRILLIANT FROM THE GATE
