EXCITEMENT WAS IN THE AIR
FOR THIS SUPER SATURDAY SHOW
AS TEN WENT INTO THE GATE
AND WE HEARD -- 'AWAAAAY THEY GO'
AND AS THE GATES THEN OPENED
IT WAS FAST + FURIOUS INDEED
CRIMINAL TYPE + CIGARSHOP
EL PRADO + JOHN HENRY TO LEAD
THE REST CAME OUT MORE SLOWLY
THE FOUR UP FRONT LED BY A LOT
BUT WOULD ANY OF THEM FINISH FIRST
WOULD ANY OF THEM STAY THIS HOT?
THEN INTO THE TURN THEY RAN
WHEN REAL QUIET TURNED UP THE HEAT
RUNNING LIKE HE WAS ON FIRE
WITH FLAMES LIGHTING UP HIS FEET!
HE CAUGHT UP TO THE 4 IN FRONT
THEN ACROSS THE TRACK IT WAS FIVE
THE REST OF THE FIELD WERE SO FAR BACK
AND RUNNING TO JUST SURVIVE
AT THE HEAD OF THE STRETCH CAME A SOUND
AS THE FILLY WHINNIED --------- "ENUFF!"
BECAUSE THAT IS WHEN EL PRADO
BECAME SUPER STRONG + REAL TUFF!
BUT REAL QUIET IS NO STRANGER
TO WINNING OUR SS DAY
HE KEPT RIGHT UP WITH THAT FILLY
TRYING TO STEAL THE LEAD AWAY
CRIMINAL TYPE + JOHN HENRY
WERE RUNNING STRIDE FOR STRIDE
WHEN CATALINA SUDDENLY FIRED
TO KEEP HER HOPES ALIVE
TWAS ANOTHER SEVERAL LENGTHS
TO DUSTY - CIGARSHOP + BLUNNY
THEN RUFFIAN + PEEPTOAD NEXT
WITH NO CHANCE OF ANY MONEY
HEADING INTO THE FINAL FURLONGS
THE FIVE IN FRONT JUST FLEW
UNTIL REAL QUIET + EL PRADO
DID WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO
THEY PICKED UP THE SPEED EVEN MORE
AND SEPARATED THEMSELVES FROM THE REST
THE RACE WAS NOW A MATCH RACE
BUT WHICH ONE WOULD FINISH AS BEST?
THEN THE WIRE GREW EVER CLOSER
THE TWO WERE NOW NOSE & NOSE
AS CRIMINAL TYPE + JOHN HENRY
WERE RUNNING JUST FOR THE SHOW
CATALINA RIGHT AT THEIR TAILS
TRYING WITH ALL OF HER HEART
TO GET UP IN TIME FOR A PLACING
AFTER A VERY EMBARRASSING START
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY ALL CAME
THE WIRE WAS NOW JUST AHEAD
NOBODY COULD KNOW IT FOR SURE
SO A PHOTO WOULD TELL IT INSTEAD
ONLY A BOB OF THE HEAD
WOULD DETERMINE WHO REALLY HAD WON
AND THE PHOTO SHOWED THAT THE FILLY
WAS INDEED THE REAL SPECIAL ONE
EL PRADO RIGHT FROM THE GATE
NEVER LOST THE LEAD FOR A MINUTE
SHE RAN WITH SUPERIOR POWER
SHE WAS SURELY IN IT TO WIN IT
AND THE PHOTO TAKEN FOR THIRD
JOHN HENRY BY A NOSE DID REVEAL
CRIMINAL TYPE THE MASTER THIEF
'THE PRECIOUS' OF COURSE HE DID STEAL
CATALINA CAME UP JUST SHORT
BEHIND CRIMINAL TYPE SHE DID RUN
BUT THE OTHER FIVE WHO HAD TRIED
AT THE HALFWAY MARK WERE ALL DONE
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TEN RUNNERS
WAS ACTUALLY SO VERY STRIKING
TWAS APPARENT RIGHT FROM THE START
THIS TRACK WAS NOT TO THEIR LIKING!
SO HERE ARE THE FINAL TOTALS
BUT IF THEY ARE ALL NOT RIGHT
