COMPLETE RESULTS WITH GRAPHICS CAN BE SEEN AT: THOROUGHBRED RACING FANS.COM - --------- GOOD AFTERNOON & WELCOME TO SUPURR SATURDAY
TODAY WE ARE IN CAJUN COUNTRY AT THE FAIR GROUNDS
IN THE MIDST OF GROWING FEAR & ANXIETY WORLD WIDE
PERHAPS A FEW HOURS OF HORSES CAN TAKE OUR MINDS
INTO ANOTHER TIME AND PLACE, IF ONLY FOR AWHILE
AS THE SAYING GOES:
THERE IS NOTHING AS GOOD FOR THE INSIDE OF A PERSON
AS THE OUTSIDE OF A HORSE
OUR FEATURE EVENT: CELEBRATING 1ST DAY OF SPRING
''HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL'' STAKES
WITH LATE SCRATCHES OF BRI & RAVEN ~
DEFENDING CHAMP ~ RUFFIAN ~ WILL HAVE 9 CONTENTIOUS
CHALLENGERS TRYING TO STOP 'THE CHEETAH' AT THE WIRE
THE TENACIOUS TEN ARE IN THE GATE
AND THEY'RE OFF IN THE ''HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL'' STAKES
LIKE 3 ROCKETS, A TRIO LEAVES THE REST OF THE FIELD BEHIND
ROAMIN ~ POST TIME MIKE & DUSTY
THESE 3 HAVE OPENED UP AT LEAST 20 LENGTHS HEADING TO THE TURN
OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME
THE TRIO CONTINUES TO OUTRUN & OUTCLASS THE REST
NECK AND NECK ~ STRIDE FOR STRIDE ACROSS THE TRACK
25 LENGTHS BACK ARE CRUZAN & REAL QUIET
ANOTHER BIG GAP TO
BLUNNY ~ CATALINA ~ RUFFIAN ~ TIGER DANCER
ALL ALONE IN ANOTHER TIME ZONE IS THUNDER CAT
MEANDERING ALL OVER THE TRACK, TAKING TIME TO
WATCH THE CLOUDS MOVING ACROSS THE SKY ~
APPARENTLY NOT AWARE YET THAT SHE IS IN A RACE?
THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
THE TRIO HAS NOW TURNED INTO A DUO AS DUSTY SPOOKED
AT SOMETHING ON THE TRACK, LOSING HER EARLY MOMENTUM
ROAMIN & POST TIME MIKE, LEAD THE WAY
DUSTY TRYING TO REGAIN COMPOSURE IS NEXT
CRUZAN & TIGER DANCER BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY
GAINING GROUND WITH EVERY STRIDE ON THE RUNAWAY DUO
REAL QUIET & CATALINA ARE NEXT
IN THE FAR DISTANCE AT THE BACK
THE NOT-SO-ENERGIZED-BLUNNY WITH 1/2 CHARGED BATTERY
DEFENDING CHAMP RUFFIAN WHO MUST HAVE LEFT
HER 'INNER CHEETAH' BACK AT THE BARN TO SNOOZE
THUNDER CAT WITH NO APPARENT DESIRE TO RUN
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
POST TIME MIKE SUDDENLY JUMPED A SHADOW
DROPPING BACK QUICKLY, LEAVING ROAMIN ALONE ON THE LEAD
SUDDENLY IN THE 'WINX' OF AN EYE
IT IS TIGER DANCER & CRUZAN FLYING LIKE TWIN PEGASUS
IF THERE WERE A CROWD IN THE STANDS
THE ROAR WOULD BE DEAFENING
THIS DYNAMIC DUO IN A SEPARATE MATCH RACE OF SPEED
NOW PASSING POST TIME MIKE WITH ONLY ROAMIN AHEAD
THE WIRE LOOMS JUST AHEAD
WILL THIS GIGANTIC DUAL EFFORT BE TOO LITTLE TOO LATE?
ROAMIN GLANCING OVER HIS SHOULDER TURNS UP THE HEAT
WITH ONE FINAL DESPERATE BURST OF ENERGY.....
BUT ALAS ~ ONE OF THE DANGEROUS DUO HAS EVEN MORE POWER!
CRUZAN WITH A LAST MINUTE SPECTACULAR SURGE OF SPEED
PASSES ROAMIN WITH ROOM TO SPARE!
