SUPURRR SATURDAY RESULTS ~ 4/18

[RUFFIAN]

OH THE CHARLES TOWN FANS
ALL SING THEIR SONG
DOO DAH ------ DOO DAH
THE CHARLES TOWN RACETRADK
A 1 1/8 MILES LONG
DOO DAH ------ DO DAH

0 THEY AIN'T GONNA RUN ALL NIGHT
BUT WILL RUN FAST ON SATURDAY
SOME MAY BET ON A REALLY FAST COLT
OR A FILLY WHOSE COAT IS SHINY GRAY

AND WHEN WE HEARD THE ANNOUNCER
SHOUT OUT AWAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO
IT WAS FOUR ACROSS THE TRACK
WITH FIVE OFF A BIT MORE SLOW

CIGARSHOP ~ DUSTY ~ JOHN HENRY
WITH CATALINA JOINING THOSE THREE
BUT SUDDENLY A GIANT ROAR WAS HEARD
AS CRIMINAL TYPE + EL PRADO BROKE FREE

ROUNDING THE TURN CAME A SHOCKER
AS DUSTY EXPLODED WITH FURY + FIRE
SHE FLEW PAST THE 6 LEADERS
SHOWING NO SIGN THAT SHE WOULD TIRE

IT WAS SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK
TO REAL QUIET ~ RUFFIAN + BLUNNY
PRETTY SLOW OUT OF THE GATE
THEIR FANS NOT THINKING IT FUNNY

THEN THE TOP OF THE STRETCH CAME
DUSTY IN FULL COMMAND OF THE LEAD
DEFENDING CHAMP REAL QUIET
SUDDENLY PICKING UP HIS SPEED

THEN CATALINA AND CIGARSHOP
WITH A HUGE BURST OF SPEED
JOINED DUSTY UP AT THE FRONT
WITH CRIMINAL TYPE NEAR THE LEAD

REAL QUIET DEFENDING HIS TITLE
WAS FAR FROM THRU + STILL FIRING
AS THE REST OF THE FIELD BEHIND HIM
WERE SHOWING SIGNS OF TIRING

AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY CAME
WITH A MATCH RACE NOW WE SEE
DUSTY AND CATALINA NECK AND NECK
BUT AT THE WIRE WHO WILL IT BE


CIGARSHOP + CRIMINAL TYPE
STILL HAVING HOPES OF WINNING
BUT THE 2 FILLIES IN THE LEAD
HAD OTHER IDEAS FROM THE BEGINNING

AS THE WIRE DREW EVER CLOSER
DUSTY WAS ALL POWER + FIRE
CATALINA SHOWING NO SIGNS
THAT SHE WAS GONNA TIRE

AND SO THESE 2 FAST FILLIES
SEPARATED THEMSELVES FROM THE REST
BUT A SUDDEN TURN OF FOOT BY ONE
WOULD SOON SHOW WHO WAS THE BEST

WITH A DRAMATIC SURGE OF POWER
CATALINA TURNED UP THE HEAT
SHE ROARED -- SHE SCORED - SHE FLEW
AS IF RUNNING ON PEGASUS FEET

THERE WAS NO DOUBT OF THE WINNER
NO PHOTO WOULD BE NEEDED THIS DAY
THE REIGNING CO-HORSE OF THE YEAR
SHOWED HER POWER IS HERE TO STAY!


TWAS A PHOTO FOR THIRD + FOURTH
SHOWING CIGARSHOP 3RD BY A HEAD
OVER CRIMINAL TYPE IN FOURTH
NOT A WIN BUT THE PRECIOUS INSTEAD

SO HERE ARE THE FINAL TOTALS
BUT IF YOU THINK THEY'RE WRONG
JUST NOTIFY THE CAT IN CHARGE
SO SHE CAN FIX BEFORE TOO LONG
