RESULTS PRESENTED BY REAL QUIET --------------Legal Disclaimer - Results not provided by Ruffian or Dances with Tigers

Welcome to Churchill Downs for a day of Midweek
Mayhem.

Although it's not the traditional first Saturday in September
a field of 5 fillies and 3 colts are lined
up in the starting gate and are ready to Engage in what
should prove to be a non BOTS tussle.

All three people
in the stands who have deviously jumped or crawled
under the gate are on their feet.

As the gate opens
Blunny shows Flat Out Speed and zooms to the front
followed by Real Quiet and Tiger Dancer.

The remaining
5 at the moment appear to be just Out For a Spin.

In a Blitzkreig move Thunder Cat has exploded to the lead.

In the hunt are Real Quiet (Contrarian),
Tiger Dancer (La Bellafina) and Blunny (Everfast or Fast Enough?).

Yet to be heard from are Catalina and Cruzan (waiting to Shashashakeitup),
Ruffian who is not running like the Cat's Pajamas
and Dusty (Sal the Turtle) who can see them all.

It is still a wide open race and if nobody gets
caught in (NY) Traffic it's not over by a longshot (Mine That Bird).

As the finish line appears will Coworker ($70)
give someone the win? The answer is NO.

From last to first we have Catalina who was a Faraway Kitten.
Dusty was Bound For Nowhere in a dull effort.

Cruzan had Great Expectations of a repeat but it was not to be.

Ruffian aLady of a Thousand Words had no voice in the outcome.

Tiger Dancer had a nice winner early but then ran like the Kitten's Cat she is.

That leaves Blunny in third who looked at the Bigger Picture
and avoided a World of Trouble by not challenging the Cat.

Real Quiet gets second. He Revved It Up but even with a Rally Cry
couldn't catch the winner.

All the glory goes to Thunder Cat and all she did was Win Win Win.
Believe me, she is Authentic and Totally Bossed the field.

Following up are the totals pending a stamp of approval from Ruffian.

Thunder Cat $57.20
Real Quiet $52.20
Blunny $49.70
Tiger Dancer $31.90
Ruffian $21.60
Cruzan $11.00
Dusty $7.80
Catalina $5.80 (hi ho hi ho....to the cathouse she will go)
