$$$ MONEY TALKS $$$
This wouldn't be an easy one
When trying to decide
15 runners in the gate
And on the line their pride
The choice was pretty simple
Out of 20 just pick three
Who will bring you all the money
And the winner you will be
On paper it sounds easy
Until the race is run
Because anything can happen
Until the race is done
And this year something happened
That we've never seen before
One player just turned "Psychic"
A Cold Trifecta he did score! --
He picked the winning horses
In the order they came in
When Money Talked it 'Shouted'
This extraordinary Win!
So out of 15 players
The Winner with most money
Was last year's 'Blind Luck' Winner
And the Winner's Name Is => BLUNNY!
The runner-up in money
Who picked two of the three
Oaklawn Capper an Exacta had
But No "Creator" did we see
The Third-Place resulted in a tie
John Henry & Tiger Dancer
They both had 1st & 3rd place pix
But the middle held no answer
The Superfecta placing
Was another tie we see
HCG Tried to Repeat
But that was not to be --
A New runner in the gate
Ribot is His Name
He gave it all he had
Not enough to win the fame
The Final Order of Finish
When all was said & done
Three Fillys in the Cat House
Golden Goose Eggs they had Won --
