=======> DERBY DAY DANCER <=======

THANK YOU LARRY

THE HORSES ARE STANDING QUIETLY WAITING FOR
GOTADUN TO DECIDE TO ENTER HER GATE

THE FILLY HAS REARED UP, TOSSING HER JOCKEY
BOTH HORSE + RIDER ARE BEING EXAMINED TO
DETERMINE IF THE FILLY CAN RUN OR NOT

THE TRACK VET HAS DETERMINED THAT GOTADUN IS OK TO RUN
THE JOCKEY APPEARS TO BE OK
THO EGO MAY HAVE BEEN A BIT BRUISED

WE ARE NOW READY TO RUN IN THE RUFFARAMA STAKES

AND AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO.....

BREAKING WITH SUPER SPEED IS BLUNNY TAKING THE EARLY LEAD

IT'S A TRIO RUNNING JUST BEHIND THE LEADER
CRIMINAL TYPE ---- DUSTY --- CATALINA

JUST A LENGTH BEHIND THEM ARE
HORSE CRAZY GAL ---- PEEPTOAD --- TIGER DANCER

IT'S A BREAK OF 10 LENGTHS BACK TO
CIGARSHOP ---------RUFFIAN ----- JOHN HENRY

AND EVEN FARTHER BACK ALL ALONE IS GOTADUN
WHO BROKE BADLY AS SHE STUMBLED OUT OF THE GATE
ALMOST LOSING HER JOCKEY --- AGAIN!

===== HEADING INTO THE TURN =====

BLUNNY LOOKING SPECTACULAR AS HE ACCELERATES ON THE LEAD
PUTTING MORE DISTANCE BETWEEN HIM + THE FIELD

BUT HOLD ON FOLKS.....

RUFFIAN SUDDENLY HAS TURNED HER INNER CHEETAH LOOSE
AND IS PASSING EVERYONE IN HER PATH

NOT TO BE OUTDONE -----
PEEPTOAD IS MOVING RIGHT ALONG WITH RUFFIAN
AND THE TWO FILLIES HAVE PUT NOSES IN FRONT OF BLUNNY

AND NOW CIGARSHOP IS MAKING HIS MOVE TO STAY IN THE MIX
-------- MOVING UP QUICKLY


====== THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH ======

AND IT'S PEEPTOAD LEADING THE WAY

RIGHT THERE WITH HER IS BLUNNY WHO IS SHOWING SUPERSONIC SPEED

DUSTY SUDDENLY FLEW FROM THE CLOUDS
AND IS JUST OFF THE TAIL OF BLUNNY

HORSE CRAZY GAL IS STAYING RIGHT WITH DUSTY AS THIS FILLY IS
SHOWING SUPURB FORM AFTER A HUGE LAY OFF

JOHN HENRY + CATALINA ARE NEXT -- ABOUT 5 LENGTHS BACK

IT'S A BREAK OF 10 LENGTHS BACK TO
CIGARSHOP --- CRIMINAL TYPE --- RUFFIAN ---- GOTADUN

AND NOW TRAILING BY 20 LENGTHS IS A VERY LEG WEARY
-------------------- TIGER DANCER

===== AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME =====

HOLD ON TO YOUR DERBY HATS, FOLKS

THIS IS GONNA BE A NAIL BITER AS DUSTY HAS SUDDENLY
SURGED TO RUN RIGHT PAST BLUNNY AND IS NOW AT THE
NECK OF PEEPTOAD, WHO IS SHOWING NO SIGN OF TIRING

THESE TWO FILLIES ENGAGED NOW IN A NECK + NECK BATTLE

BLUNNY STILL RUNNING STRONGLY IS ONLY 2 LENGTHS BACK

IT'S A BREAK OF 3 LENGTHS BACK TO HORSE CRAZY GAL

JOHN HENRY + CATALINA --- NECK + NECK ARE NEXT

BUT THE ROAR OF THE CROWD IS ALL FOR THE 2 FIREY FILLIES
AT THE FRONT AS THE WIRE IS JUST AHEAD

PEEPTOAD ALL OUT TRYING FOR A REPEAT WIN

DUSTY FULL OF FIRE RIGHT THERE WITH HER

AND HERE COMES THE WIRE ~

TOO CLOSE TO CALL! -- PHOTO FINISH --
COULD BE A DEAD HEAT AS IT APPEARS BOTH FILLY NOSES
TOUCHED THE WIRE IN UNISON

STEWARDS TAKING A LONG TIME TO STUDY THE REPLAY

A JOCKEY OBJECTION ALSO HAS BEEN RELAYED TO THE STEWARDS
#7 = CONTACT / INTERFERENCE IN STRETCH ON #5

THE CROWD ROAR IS DEAFENING
HALF ARE SCREAMING FOR PEEPTOAD
THE OTHERS YELLING DUSTY'S NAME

WHO WILL IT BE?

DOES PEEPTOAD REPEAT AND RUN FOR THE 3~PEAT?
WILL DUSTY FOIL HER GLORY?

AND HERE IT COMES, FOLKS -------
THE LIGHTS ON THE TOTE BOARD #5 / #7 HAVE STOPPED FLASHING

JOCKEY OBJECTION => DISMISSED

THE RETURN TO GLORY IS ALL PEEPTOAD BY A WHISKER
ONE OF THE CLOSEST PHOTO FINISHES WE HAVE EVER SEEN!

BLUNNY RUNNING A SPECTACULAR RACE COMPLETES THE TRIFECTA

AND EASILY STEALING 'THE PRECIOUS' IS HORSE CRAZY GAL
WITH AN AMAZING EFFORT AFTER A HUGE LAY OFF! WELL DONE
