PEEPTOAD, CIGARSHOP & STARK ARE ANOTHER LENGTH BACK
TRAILING IN THE EARLY GOING ARE THE TRIO OF
POST TIME MIKE - RUFFIAN & TIGER DANCER
WHO HAVE NOT YET SHOWN ANY SPEED
THE HORSES HAVE REACHED THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
CRIMINAL TYPE IS ON FIRE
AS HE HAS SUDDENLY EXPLODED
WITH A TREMENDOUS SURGE OF POWER ~
LEAVING THE FIELD IN HIS WAKE
... AT LEAST 20 LENGTHS BACK!
DUSTY IS GAINING ON THE LEADER WITH EVERY STRIDE
REAL QUIET ALSO HAS HIS MIND ON RUNNING
AS HE HAS PICKED UP HIS SPEED
AND IS NOW JUST ABOUT 6 LENGTHS BACK BEHIND DUSTY
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
CRIMINAL TYPE ----- IS RUNNING LIKE A 2 YEAR OLD!!
REMINDING HIS LOYAL LONG TIME FANS THAT
JUST LIKE FINE WINE = HE KEEPS GETTING BETTER WITH AGE!
HE HAS SEPARATED HIMSELF FROM THE FIELD
BY ABOUT 15 LENGTHS -- JUST TOYING WITH THEM
PLAYING HIS OWN VERSION OF ''CATCH-ME-IF-U-CAN''
DUSTY KEEPS GAINING GROUND -
CLOSING IN ON THE RUNAWAY COLT
BUT SHE WILL HAVE TO SPROUT WINGS
AND TURN INTO ''SUPER-FILLY''
IF SHE HAS ANY HOPE OF CATCHING HIM
REAL QUIET IS ALL OUT BUT NOT REALLY GAINING
SUDDENLY THERE'S A HUGE ROAR FROM THE CROWD ~
ALL EYES ARE TURNING TO THE BACK OF THE TRACK
WHERE SOMEONE IS FLYING UP THE RAIL
WITH AN INCREDIBLE SURGE OF SPEED
FROM THE VERY BACK OF THE FIELD ~
WHO CAN IT BE?
NOW WE CAN SEE FLASHY HOT PINK SILKS ~
RUFFIAN HAS SUDDENLY AWAKENED HER "INNER CHEETAH"
FROM A SNOOZE FEST IN LAST PLACE ~
TO A ROARING RAMPAGE OF POWER
SHE HAS PASSED ONE AFTER ANOTHER LIKE A LIGHTNING BOLT
AND IS RIGHT AT THE TAIL OF REAL QUIET ~
~ BUT IT MAY BE TOO LITTLE TOO LATE!
THE CROWD IS UP ON THEIR FEET AS THE FINISH LINE GETS CLOSER
ATTENTION IS ALL AT THE FRONT WHERE DUSTY,
WITH AN AMAZING TURN OF FOOT & DYNAMIC DETERMINATION
HAS NOW CAUGHT UP TO THE FRONT RUNNER
THE ''MASTER THIEF'' - CRIMINAL TYPE ~
WHO IS WELL KNOWN FOR STEALING RACES....
THE FIERY FILLY HAS TURNED HIS "SURE-THING"
INTO A MATCH RACE TO THE WIRE!
BUT SHE IS RUNNING OUT OF GROUND
AS THE WIRE LOOMS JUST AHEAD
REAL QUIET & RUFFIAN ARE LOCKED IN A BATTLE OF THEIR OWN
FOR A BIGGER PIECE OF THE PURSE ~
BUT WITH NO CHANCE OF CATCHING THE 2 AHEAD OF THEM
IT'S GONNA COME RIGHT DOWN TO THE WIRE
TOO CLOSE TO CALL--- HOLD ALL TICKETS
PHOTO FINISH -- OBJECTION LIGHTS FLASHING ~
STEWARDS EXAMINING THE REPLAY --
COULD IT BE A DEAD HEAT?
LIGHTS HAVE STOPPED FLASHING
THE CROWD SEEMS DIVIDED IN THEIR REACTIONS:
THE HIGHER PITCHED SCREAMS OF THE LADIES --
APPARENTLY EXUBERANT INDICATE THAT INDEED
THE FILLY NOSE WAS 1st ON THE WIRE
THE LOWER TONE OF THE MEN ---
MORE A GROAN OF DISBELIEF THAT THEIR HERO
WHO APPEARED TO BE UNBEATABLE --- WAS
REAL QUIET IN A PHOTO ~ HOLDS ON FOR 3rd
RUFFIAN WITH AN OUTRAGEOUS CLOSING KICK
CLAWS HER "PAWS" AROUND 'THE PRECIOUS'
