RUFFIAN JUMPED A SHADOW IN THE TURN & HAS DROPPED BACK BADLY
--- LOSING ALL MOMENTUM
AND THERE GOES CIGARSHOP -- JOHN HENRY & CRIMINAL TYPE

WITHIN JUST 2 LENGTHS BEHIND THE LEADER
IT'S ANOTHER 10 LENGTHS BACK TO
TIGER DANCER & CATALINA
AND AT THE BACK ARE
DUSTY ~ GOTADUN-QH & RUFFIAN
THE HORSES HAVE REACHED THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
AND NOW THE COMPLEXION OF THE RACE HAS DRAMATICALLY CHANGED
EL PRADO ONCE 15--20 LENGTHS IN THE LEAD ---
NOW SHOWING SIGNS OF TIRING AND LOSING GROUND
BUT NOTHING IS SLOWING DOWN JOHN HENRY WHO IS SHOWING
INCREDIBLE DETERMINATION & ENERGY
CIGARSHOP ALSO RUNNING POWERFULLY TODAY
RUNNING STRIDE FOR STRIDE NEXT TO JOHN HENRY
BOTH COLTS ARE RIGHT AT THE TAIL OF EL PRADO
CATALINA & TIGER DANCER
BOTH FILLIES TURNING UP THE HEAT NOW AND GAINING GROUND
WITH EVERY STRIDE ----- ARE NEXT
GOTADUN-QH
NOW MAKING HER BID IS JUST OFF THE TAIL OF TIGER DANCER
CRIMINAL TYPE & DUSTY ARE ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK
ALONE WAY AT THE BACK IS A VERY TIRED RUFFIAN
-------- AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
THE FEVER PITCH OF THE CROWD IS SOARING BECAUSE
WE HAVE A 3-WAY MATCH RACE ON OUR HANDS NOW FOLKS!
IT'S NO LONGER A RUNAWAY WIN FOR EL PRADO WHICH IT
SEEMED LIKE UNTIL THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
CIGARSHOP & JOHN HENRY ARE TURNING THIS INTO
A REAL BATTLE ON THE FRONT END
CATALINA & TIGER DANCER ALL OUT & WITH A SHOT ARE NEXT
ABOUT 3 LENGTHS BEHIND THE LEADERS
GOTADUN-QH STILL RUNNING STRONGLY IS NEXT
AND NOW THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET SCREAMING
JOHN HENRY SUDDENLY BROKE AWAY FROM CIGARSHOP
AND NOW IS NECK & NECK WITH EL PRADO
