FIRING LIKE TWIN ROCKETS OUT OF THE GATE ARE
TIGER DANCER -&- STARK WHO HAVE LEFT THE REST OF THE FIELD
EATING DUST FROM FREAKY FAST FRACTIONS IN THE EARLY GOING




IT'S ABOUT 13 LENGTHS BACK TO A NOT-SO-FAST FOURSOME
RUFFIAN ~ CIGARSHOP ~ DUSTY ~ THUNDER CAT

ONLY ANOTHER LENGTH BACK RIGHT ON THEIR TAILS ARE
PEEPTOAD -&- REAL QUIET

THAT DUO IS FOLLOWED BY BLUNNY -&- CATALINA

AND BRINGING UP THE REAR IN THE EARLY GOING
IS POST-TIME-MIKE


OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME


~ IN A HEARTBEAT EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED ~


FROM THE CLOUDS ~
POST TIME MIKE RUNNING IN LAST, 20 LENGTHS BACK
HAS FLOWN UP THE RAIL TO OVERTAKE TIGER DANCER -&- STARK
TAKING TOTAL COMMAND OF A HUGE LEAD!

TIGER DANCER NOW RUNNING IN 2nd
WITH A TRIO RIGHT AT HER TAIL
CATALINA ~ STARK -&- CIGARSHOP

JUST ANOTHER LENGTH BEHIND THOSE THREE ARE
DUSTY ~ THUNDER CAT -&- RUFFIAN

SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK ARE REAL QUIET -&- BLUNNY

NOW TRAILING THE FIELD IS PEEPTOAD WHO HAS NOT YET
'LEAPED' INTO HER BEST STRIDE




THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH -- WITH POST TIME MIKE
LEADING THE WAY LOOKING CONFIDENT -&- STRONG

THUNDER CAT NOW STARTING TO INCREASE HER SPEED
MOVING WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE OF TIGER DANCER
WHO IS SHOWING NO SIGNS YET OF SLOWING DOWN
BUT IT'S STILL POST TIME MIKE THE ONE IN COMMAND TO CATCH!


AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME


POST TIME MIKE BEGINNING TO LOOK A BIT LEG WEARY
WITH HIS LEAD QUICKLY DIMINISHING
AS STARK, FINDING HIS BEST STRIDE
IS NOW NECK AND NECK WITH THUNDER CAT




THAT DUO CONTINUES TO FOLLOW POST TIME MIKE -&- TIGER DANCER

CATALINA FINDING A BIT MORE SPEED IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY
BLUNNY ~ DUSTY ~ PEEPTOAD ~ CIGARSHOP -&- REAL QUIET
AS RUFFIAN WHOSE 'INNER CHEETAH' IS BACK SNOOZIN AT THE BARN
TRAILS THE FIELD SHOWING LITTLE INTEREST IN RUNNING!




POST TIME MIKE LOSING GROUND WITH EVERY STRIDE WHEN
SUDDENLY THE CROWD IS GOING WILD AS TIGER DANCER
IN A HEARTBEAT HAS ROARED RIGHT PAST POST TIME MIKE
LEAVING THE REST OF THE FIELD IN HER MIGHTY WAKE!

POST TIME MIKE FADING BUT STILL COURAGEOUS NOW TRYING
TO HOLD OFF THE LATE RUN BY STARK & THUNDER CAT!

THE EYE OF THE TIGER IS FOCUSED ON THE WIRE
LEAVING NO DOUBT IN ANYONE'S MIND
WHO WILL STAND PROUDLY IN THE WINNER'S CIRCLE




SHE HAS MADE A MOCKERY OF THE RACE IN THE FINAL FURLONGS
WITH A TIRING LEG WEARY POST TIME MIKE HOLDING ON FOR 2nd
