[RUFFIAN]

DUE TO VARIOUS ISSUES
EL PRADO UNABLE TO SCORE
SO ONCE AGAIN THE RUFF ONE
WILL STEP RIGHT IN TO ROAR

THE THUNDER CAT WILL BE TRYING
TO RUN WITH LIGHTNING FAST FEET
WITH 2 VICTORY GALLOPS ALREADY
IT'S NOW THAT ELUSIVE 3~PEAT!

WITH 8 TO CHALLENGE HER EFFORT
SHE'LL TRY TO GIVE IT HER BEST
TO WIN THE ELUSIVE 3~PEAT
DEFEATING ALL OF THE REST

THE NINE ARE ALL STANDING NICELY
JUST WAITING TO OPEN THE GATE
AND WHEN THE FINISH LINE COMES
WILL 3-PEAT GLORY BE FATE?

AND AWAY THEY GO IN GOOD FASHION
FOUR BREAK FAST FOR THE LEAD
THUNDER CAT ~ BLUNNY ~ CATALINA & STARK
THE REST NOT SHOWING GOOD SPEED

OUT OF THE TURN THEY ALL COME
BLUNNY & CATALINA IN THE LEAD
THUNDER CAT IS NEXT NOW
DUSTY & STARK WITH SOME SPEED

IT'S A LONG WAY BACK TO THE REST
EL PRADO ~ TIGER DANCER & RUFF
CIGARSHOP WITH THE 3 FILLYS
ALL FINDING THE TRACK A BIT TUFF

AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH THEY ALL COME
STILL AT THE FRONT WE SEE BLUNNY
THUNDER CAT RIGHT AT HIS THROAT
WITH A GOOD SHOT AT VICTORY MONEY

CATALINA IS THERE WITH THOSE TWO
THE REST ARE PRETTY FAR BACK
THREE SETTING VERY FAST FRACTIONS
AS GOOD SPEED THE OTHER 6 LACK


AND DOWN THE STRETCH COME THE NINE
A 3 WAY BATTLE WE SEE
BLUNNY ~ THUNDER CAT & CATALINA
BUT AT THE WIRE WHO WILL IT BE?


BLUNNY IS NOT SLOWING DOWN
THUNDER CAT AIMING FOR GLORY
CATALINA STILL LOOKING STRONG
BUT WHICH NAME HEADLINES THE STORY?

THE WIRE LOOMS JUST UP AHEAD
THUNDER CAT A HEAD BEHIND BLUNNY
3-PEAT OR A FROSTED WHISKER
STORM CLOUDS OR EVERYTHING SUNNY?
?

THE ANSWER TO THAT WE NOW SEE
IT'S BLUNNY DENYING HER GLORY
THUNDER CAT WITH FROSTED WHISKER
WITHOUT HER HISTORY MAKING STORY


CATALINA WILL FINISH IN THIRD
CIGARSHOP = "THE PRECIOUS" HAS WON
THUNDER CAT GAVE IT HER ALL
BUT SADLY COULD NOT GET ER DONE
