**A TIGER DANCER PRODUCTION**

AND SO THIS IS MID-WEEK
ANOTHER RACE RUN
THE LAST OF THE YEAR NOW
LET'S FIND OUT WHO WON

REAL QUIET HAD A "BLONDE MOMENT"
OR PURRRHAPS TURNED RIGHT AT ALBUQUERQUE
AND FOUND HIMSELF AT TURFWAY
FREEZING HIS CHESTNUTS OFF --
{**CHESTNUTS SHOULD BE ROASTED
ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME OF YEAR}
... AND THUS .... MISSED TODAY'S EVENT

TODAY WE ARE AT TAMPA BAY
WITH A FEISTY FIELD OF EIGHT
THE POST PARADE IS OVER NOW
AND EIGHT STAND IN THE GATE

AS THE GATES SPRUNG OPEN
THUNDER CAT ROARED AWAY
THE REST STARED IN DISBELIEF
NOT MUCH ELSE THEY COULD SAY

SHE RAN QUITE IMPRESSIVELY
THE 1st HALF OF THE RACE
AS RUFFIAN WAS PLODDING ALONG
AND COULD NOT FIND THE PACE

THEN BLUNNY FOUND HIS MOJO
AND WENT ZOOOMING RIGHT ON PAST
HIS BATTERIES FULLY CHARGED TODAY
MAKING SURE THAT HE WOULD LAST

DUSTY AND TIGER DANCER
BOTH WERE NOW IN THE MIX
SASHAYING ACROSS THE TRACK
LIKE A COUPLE OF 'SUPER HOT CHICKS'

CIGAR RAN WELL IN THE EARLY GOING
THEN GOT SAMMICHED
TWEEN CATALINA AND RUFFIAN
WHICH HAD THE POOR COLT COLLARED
TWEEN FRUSTRATION AND A GRIN

MEANWHILE THE CROWD WAS FOCUSED ON CRUZAN
THE 3-PEAT CHAMP -- NOW TRYING TO MAKE IT 4
RUNNING FOR A HIT IN THE RECORD BOOKS
THIS COLT HAD FOUR ON THE FLOOR

BUT INSTEAD OF RUNNING WILD AND FREE
CRUZAN COULD NOT GRAB A GEAR
INSTEAD OF FINDING THE WIRE FIRST
HE WAS BRINGING UP THE REAR

ON THIS LAST MID-WEEK OF THE YEAR
BLUNNY CROSSES THE WIRE FIRST
OUR 3-PEAT CHAMP IN THE DOGHOUSE
AND DREAMS OF A 4-PEAT NOW BURST

CONGRATS TO THE ENERGIZER BLUNNY
ON HIS VERY CONVINCING WIN
THANKS TO THOSE WHO RACED ALL YEAR
OUR BAND OF HAPPY HOULIGANS
