OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME :rhrse:

With a lightning turn of foot it is now Digger running away with the race
In the early going but anything Can and often changes by the time the wire arrives

It is at least 13 lengths behind the Front Running Colt
A Trio of Competitive Colts Trying to catch up to Digger
Zippy, Cruzan, Blunny

Then a big gap back to
Post Time Mike, AEA, Dusty, Ruffian

Trailing the field in the early going are Roamin + Tiger Dancer

Digger Showing no signs of slowing up running away from the rest

AEA starting to find her best Stride moving up quickly on the rail
It’s another several lengths back to Dusty, Senator, Cruzan
This trio is followed lethargically by
Post Time Mike, Ruffian, Roamin & Tiger Dancer

AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME :rhrse:

Digger Making a mockery of the race putting on an exhibition
With nobody even close to challenging yet

It is a trio trying to catch the runaway Colt but not gaining ground
Blunny, Zippy, AEA

The rest of the field is far behind with little chance of any money

Suddenly the crowd is on their feet screaming like a bunch of Banshees

All eyes have Quickly turned away from the front runner to the far back
The Cause of the commotion is Tiger Dancer ROARING from last
The Freaky Fast Filly has unleashed a Shocking Surge Of Supurr-Sonic Speed!

She is passing one after another sprouting imaginary wings like Pegasus
She has passed every runner in front of her except Digger
And now has the front running colt in her sights

The Crowd is Roaring now with 2 different Tones
The deeper voices of the Men, screaming for Digger
The Feminine Filly Voices, Fiercely for The Dancing Tiger

HERE COMES THE WIRE ~ WAY TOO CLOSE TO CALL!
