IT'S A FRISKY FILLY FOURSOME OUT FOR AN EARLY LEAD
RUFFIAN ~ DUSTY ~ PEEPTOAD ~ THUNDER CAT
HEADING TO THE TURN JUST A LENGTH IN FRONT OF CRUZAN
EL PRADO IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY THE REST OF THE FIELD
WHO HAVE NOT SHIFTED INTO HIGH GEAR YET
~~OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME~~
LIKE A METEOR STREAKING ACROSS THE SKY ~CRUZAN~
HAS SOARED TO A GIGANTICUS LEAD OVER THE FIELD
TURNING THE RACE INTO A 'CATCH-ME-IF-U-CAN' EVENT EARLY ON!
THE CRAFTY COLT HAS 3 FEARLESS FILLYS GIVING CHASE
BUT THEY ARE AT LEAST A DOZEN LENGTHS BACK
TIGER DANCER, RUFFIAN & THUNDER CAT TRYING TO MAKE
A RACE OUT OF THIS SUPER-SONIC-SPEED- SHOW BY CRUZAN!
PEEPTOAD IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY
DUSTY ~ CIGARSHOP ~ REAL QUIET
IT'S ANOTHER HUGE GAP BACK TO
DEFENDING CHAMP -- EL PRADO
JUST A LENGTH AHEAD OF CATALINA
THE EARLY TRAILERS VERY FAR BACK ARE
BLUNNY AND POST-TIME-MIKE
~~THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH~~
CRUZAN JUST ROLLIN RIGHT ALONG WITH A COMFORTABLE LEAD
SHOWING NO SIGNS OF SLOWING DOWN AT ALL ~
DUSTY & CATALINA ARE STARTING TO GAIN GROUND QUICKLY
TRYING TO CREATE A CREDIBLE CHALLENGE TO THE COCKY COLT
CLEARLY RUNNING AWAY WITH THE RACE!
TIGER DANCER WITH A SUDDEN SURGE OF SPEED JOINS THE
OTHER FEARLESS FILLYS AS THESE 3 BEGIN TO CLOSE THE GAP
IT'S A FEW LENGTHS BACK TO RUFFIAN & CIGARSHOP
FOLLOWED BY REAL QUIET & POST TIME MIKE
ANOTHER 3 LENGTHS BACK ARE
THUNDER CAT ~ BLUNNY ~ PEEPTOAD
AS DEFENDING CHAMP, EL PRADO, IS
SHOWING NO SIGNS OF SPEED OR ENERGY
TRYING TO REPEAT HER LAST IMPRESSIVE WINNING EFFORT
~~AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~~
CRUZAN JUST 'CRUISIN' CONFIDENTLY ON THE LEAD
CATALINA WITH A NEW FOUND 'MOJO' HAS LEFT DUSTY BEHIND
MOVING UP QUICKLY ON THE COLT AHEAD AND NOW WITH
A DECENT CHANCE OF STEALING THE RACE
DUSTY WITH ANOTHER BURST OF SPEED IS NOT THRU YET!
TIGER DANCER STILL TRYING FOR A PIECE OF THE PURSE MONEY
THE REST ARE FAR BACK WITH NO CHANCE OF MONEY TODAY!
THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET AS CATALINA WITH A SUDDEN
SURGE OF SPEED IS CLOSING THE GAP WITH EVERY STRIDE
CRUZAN SEEMS TO BE AWARE OF THE IMPENDING THREAT
BEHIND HIM ~ AND WITH A GLANCE BACK ~ DECIDES THAT
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF THIS FILLY FOOLISHNESS
AND WITH YET ANOTHER DRAMATIC DISPLAY OF POWER
THE CONFIDENT CLASSY COLT MAKES ONE MORE MOVE
TO LEAVE NO DOUBT IN ANYONE'S MIND WHO WAS CLEARLY
THE 'CLASS OF THE RACE' TODAY!
CATALINA WITH A FIERCE FILLY RALLY WAS JUST NOT ENOUGH
