SORRY FOLKS FOR THE DELAY
TIGER DANCER HAD TECH ISSUES
SO I AM POSTING RESULTS SANS GRAPHICS
SHE MAY ADD SOME LATER ON BUT THE
HOUR IS GETTING LATE AND I WANT TO
END THE CURIOSITY & ANTICIPATION
==================================
Good afternoon and welcome to Supurrr Saturday
at the Fair Grounds
Today we have an outstanding Field of 12 runners with the exception of JOHN HENRY who is still recovering at the equine medical center
We wish him a speedy recovery and hope to see him
back in the gate very soon
The horses are entering the starting gate without incident
just waiting for Post Time Mike to settle down and go in
Everyone is standing quietly and we are ready to run
And Awaaaaaaaaaaaaaay They Go
Out for the early lead is TIGER DANCER ~
With CIGARSHOP, BLUNNY & DUSTY Right there at her tail
Coming out of the turn things have changed dramatically as
CRIMINAL TYPE & PEEPTOAD Suddenly fired like July 4th firecrackers
taking total command of the race with a gigantic lead
over the rest of the field
It's at least 15 lengths back to the next tier of horses
Where we see DUSTY, CIGAR SHOP,
STARK THE DEFENDING CHAMPION, REAL QUIET & BLUNNY
TIGER DANCER DID NOT HANDLE THE TURN WELL
AND HAS DROPPED VERY FAR BACK
ITS ANOTHER 15 LENGTHS BACK TO
OAKLAWN CAPPER ... WHO IS STRUGGLING
BUT EVEN FARTHER BACK RUNNING IN ANOTHER TIME ZONE ARE
POST TIME MIKE, CATALINA & RUFFIAN WHO WILL HAVE TO
SPROUT WINGS TO CATCH UP TO THE FRONT RUNNERS
AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH IT'S NOW CRIMINAL TYPE
WHO HAS LEFT PEEPTOAD STUNNED AS HE FLEW BY
LIKE A STARSHIP AT WARP SPEED
--- AND TAKING TOTAL COMMAND OF THE RACE
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
IT HAS NOW TURNED INTO A 2 HORSE MATCH RACE
WITH CRIMINAL TYPE HAVING A COMMANDING LEAD
BUT PEEPTOAD STILL RUNNING STRONGLY TRYING TO CATCH HIM ------
AND AS WE ALL KNOW ---
IT AIN'T OVER TILL THE STOUT LADY SINGS!
SUDDENLY THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET
SCREAMING LIKE BANSHEES BUT WE CAN'T SEE WHY YET
WE CAN SEE 2 HORSES FLYING UP THE RAIL
FROM THE VERY BACK ----- LAST OF ALL
BY AT LEAST 20+ LENGTHS ....
IT'S RUFFIAN WHO HAS TURNED HER INNER CHEETAH LOOSE
--- ROARING PAST ONE AFTER ANOTHER
JUST AS TIGER DANCER RECOVERING FROM HER STUMBLE ON THE TURN
GOT BACK ON TRACK & THESE 2 FILLYS NOW RUNNING IN TANDEM ARE
JUST A FEW LENGTHS BEHIND THE SPEEDY FRONT RUNNING DUO OF
CRIMINAL TYPE & PEEPTOAD
ALTHOUGH CRIMINAL TYPE HAS A HUGE LEAD
REAL QUIET HAS SUDDENLY FOUND HIS MOJO
AND IS CLOSING QUICKLY ON RUFFIAN
.... AND IS NOW RIGHT AT HER TAIL
TUCKED IN JUST BEHIND REAL QUIET ARE
BLUNNY ... CATALINA ... STARK
THESE 3 SUDDENLY FOUND NEW ENERGY
THAT WAS NOWHERE TO BE SEEN IN THE
FIRST HALF OF THE RACE
BUT ARE SO FAR BEHIND THAT THERE IS LITTLE
CHANCE OF PICKING UP ANY MONEY
EVEN FARTHER BACK ARE DUSTY, CIGARSHOP & OAKLAWN CAPPER
AND ALL ALONE SHOWING NO SPEED FROM THE GATE
IS POST TIME MIKE WHO APPEARS TO BE PULLING UP NOW
THE WIRE LOOMS JUST AHEAD
AND THE MATCH RACE HAS NOW TURNED INTO AN EXHIBITION BY CRIMINAL TYPE
AS HE HAS LEFT PEEPTOAD ALL ALONE RUNNING IN 2nd PLACE
TIGER DANCER HAS LEFT RUFFIAN BEHIND AND NOW IS RUNNING IN 3RD
RUFFIAN IS TRYING TO SHAKE OFF THE CLOSING SPEED OF REAL QUIET
AS THE TWO OF THEM ALMOST CLIPPED HEELS NEARING THE WIRE
THERE WILL BE NO PHOTO FINISH FOR 1st TODAY FOLKS
AS CRIMINAL TYPE LIKE A MASTER THIEF
STOLE THE RACE RIGHT OUT OF THE TURN
PEEPTOAD SUPER STRONG FROM THE GATE WILL HAVE TO BE CONTENTED WITH 2nd
AS THE POWER OF CRIMINAL TYPE WAS TOO STRONG TO OVERCOME
IT WILL TAKE A PHOTO TO DETERMINE WHO PICKS UP
THE FOURTH PLACE MONEY & THE PRECIOUS
RUFFIAN AND REAL QUIET WITH JUST A KITTY WHISKER SEPARATING THEM
