We say a farewell gladly to 2020
One of the most depressing years in recent times
With the hope that once you get to the bottom ~
the only way from there is UP!

Defending Champion The Energizer Blunny Will NOT
Be running for a repeat victory

We shall begin 2021 at Gulfstream Park

Welcome To Supurr Saturday
And Finally we’re in 2021
Tiz A Brand New Racing Year
To Gulfstream Park for Fun

Tiz “Happy Mew Year Day For Cat”
So Our Feature Event Is Gonna Be That

Real Quiet Raven Catalina
Never made it to the gate
We have no word from trainers
As patiently we all did Wait

Those scratches left us with eight
Who now are all in the gate
Ready to run for the glory
With the Penthouse as their Fate

The day is bright and sunny
And Away they go for the money
Seven of the eight Running well
Except for the “Energizer Blunny”

Right from the start - 2 are Fast
But at this distance will both last?
Ruffian and Cruzan far up in Front
The rest of the field not yet in the hunt

At the top of the stretch, The “Cheetah” ahead
Right from the start this Filly has Led
But Cruzan is strong and not giving in
The Colt believing That he could still win

Tiger Dancer now making her move
It took her a while to find her best groove
The rest of the field still lagging behind
Gulfstream so far — Being Unkind

At the top of the stretch a match race we see
Ruffian and Cruzan ~ but who will it be ?
Whose velvet nose will cross the line First
Who will prove Faster + Who may feel Cursed

It’s going to be close
And down to the wire
But Cruzan it seems
Is beginning to tire

With the speed of The Cheetah
With Determination + Power
It’s Ruffian a Winner
The Queen of the Hour

Tiger Dancer holds on
To catch the Bouquet
Roamin to the Shire
“The Precious” today

Ironically It’s “The Cheetah” To Win
On “ Happy Mew Year Day”
To Roar and Purrr to Victory
Toying with the rest on her way!

In the Dog House not earning much money
With Milk Bone biscuits there is the Bunny
