DUE TO A LATER NIGHT CARD
DON'T WANT RESULTS BEIN RISKY
SO I WILL WAIT UNTIL THURSDAY
SO THEY'LL BE PURRRKY & FRISKY!

[RUFFIAN]

THE SUN WAS JUST GOING DOWN
AS 10 THEN ENTERED TO RUN
SOME WOULD FINISH SO WELL
SOME WOULD RUN JUST FOR FUN

AND THEN WHEN THE GATES OPENED
IT WAS CLEAR FROM THE VERY START
THAT MANY WERE FULL OF POWER
SOME WERE JUST RUNNING ON HEART

THERE WAS NO CLEAR CUT LEADER
AS EIGHT RAN WELL THE FIRST HALF
TWO NEVER FIRED AT ALL
CALLING THEM 'RUNNERS' = A LAUGH


AND THEN AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
ONE HORSE BROKE FREE FROM THE REST
BLUNNY WITH POWER + SPEED
LEAVING NO DOUBT WHO WAS BEST


BUT NOTHING IS A SURE THING IN RACING
AND IT AIN'T OVER UNTIL FAT LADY SINGS
SEVERAL CAUGHT UP QUICKLY TO BLUNNY
LET'S SEE WHAT THE HOME STRETCH WOULD BRING

BLUNNY -- CATALINA -- TIGER DANCER
HORSE CRAZY GAL AND THEN RUFF
JOHN HENRY -- CIGARSHOP -- REAL QUIET
FINDING THE TRACK PRETTY TUFF

FAR BACK IN ANOTHER TIME ZONE
WERE DUSTY AND CRIMINAL TYPE
NEITHER SHOWING NO SPEED AT ALL
THEIR CONNECTIONS COULD ONLY JUST GRIPE

AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY ALL CAME
THE LEAD VERY SMALL HELD BY BLUNNY
FOUR RUNNING JUST OFF HIS TAIL
ALL FIVE WITH A SHOT AT THE MONEY

THE WIRE WAS THERE JUST AHEAD
WOULD A PHOTO BE NEEDED TO SEE
WHOSE NOSE TOUCHED DOWN FIRST
OUT OF FIVE JUST WHO WOULD IT BE?

AND THEN WITH A ROAR FROM THE CROWD
ONE OF THE FOUR RAN PAST BLUNNY
RIGHT AS THE WIRE WAS THERE
CATALINA BROUGHT HOME THE BIG MONEY


BUT BLUNNY HAD GIVEN HIS BEST
FROM THE GATE RIGHT DOWN TO THE WIRE
AND EVEN IN HIS DEFEAT
THAT COLT NEVER ONCE EVER TIRED

IT WAS CLOSE FOR THE OTHER 2 SPOTS
A PHOTO WOULD BE NEEDED TO SEE
ONCE THAT PHOTO WAS REVEALED
WE KNEW JUST WHO IT WOULD BE

TIGER DANCER FINISHED STRONGLY IN 3RD
HORSE CRAZY GAL THE PRECIOUS SHE STOLE
AND FINISHING IN THE VERY LAST SPOT
WITH A GOOSE EGG SHINING IN GOLD

WAS DUSTY WHO BROKE VERY BADLY
WITH CRIMINAL TYPE DID COLIDE
WAS LUCKY THAT NEITHER DID FALL
BUT BOTH WERE A NIGHTMARE TO RIDE


SO HERE IS HOW THEY ALL FINISHED
AND WHO TOOK HOME MOST OF THE MONEY
CATALINA WITH FIERCE FILLY POWER
AT THE WIRE DEFEATING BOLD BLUNNY

CATALINA ======= ======= $60.40

BLUNNY ======= ======== $51.80

TIGER DANCER =========== $49.40

HORSE CRAZY GAL ===== === $48.80 (Steals The Precious)

======== ALSO RAN =======

RUFFIAN ================ $46.40

JOHN HENRY ===== ======== $39.80

CIGARSHOP ============== $38

REAL QUIET ============== $37.80

CRIMINAL TYPE (DC) ====== == $29.40

DUSTY ================= $0

===> NOW A MEMBER OF THE GOLDEN GOOSE EGG CLUB
JOINING RUFFIAN + CRIMINAL TYPE


KIND OF AMUSING CONSIDERING THAT DUSTY WAS 2010 HOTY
AND EVEN MORE IRONIC, CRIMINAL TYPE HOTY 2011 / 2013 / 2014
