SUPURR SATURDAY ~ 5/27 ***RESULTS***

[RUFFIAN]

GOOD AFTERNOON & WELCOME TO
SUPURRR SATURDAY AT SANTA ANITA

OUR FEATURE EVENT WILL BE THE MEMORIAL DAY STAKES
REMEMBERING & HONORING ALL THOSE WHO PUT
THEIR LOVE OF COUNTRY ABOVE THEIR OWN LIVES

CATALINA WILL BE RUNNING FOR A REPEAT VICTORY
AS TEN CHALLENGERS WILL BE TRYING TO PREVENT THAT

DUSTY IS A LATE SCRATCH BUT WE HAVE HAD NO WORD
FROM HER CONNECTIONS FOR ANY REASON ~
AS SOON AS WE HAVE AN UPDATE WE WILL LET YOU KNOW

THE HORSES ARE ALL IN THE GATE AND READY TO RUN

AND THEY'RE OFF IN THE MEMORIAL DAY STAKES

IT'S A FIERY FREAKY FAST FILLY DUO OUT FOR THE LEAD
AS RUFFIAN RELEASED HER 'INNER CHEETAH' RIGHT OUT
OF THE GATE AND EL PRADO JOINNG HER QUICKLY

IT'S JUST A FEW LENGTHS BACK TO A FAST FOURSOME OF
CIGARSHOP ~ PEEPTOAD ~ BLUNNY & REAL QUIET

THE REMAINING FIVE OF POST TIME MIKE ~ THUNDER CAT ~
STARK ~ CATALINA & TIGER DANCER ARE VERY FAR BACK
BUT ANYTHING CAN CHANGE BY THE TIME WE SEE THE WIRE!

OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME

RUFFIAN HAS LEFT EL PRADO IN HER WAKE AS SHE TURNED
UP THE HEAT TAKING TOTAL COMMAND OF THE LEAD

IT'S A COLT DUO OF CIGARSHOP & BLUNNY AS POST TIME MIKE
JOINS THEM CHASING A FIERY FAST FILLY AT THE FRONT

IT'S SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK TO EL PRADO ~ PEEPTOAD & REAL QUIET

STILL VERY FAR BACK RUNNING IN WHAT APPEARS TO LOOK
LIKE A TOTALLY SEPARATE RACE SO FAR ARE
THUNDER CAT ~ CATALINA ~ TIGER DANCER & STARK

THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH

RUFFIAN STILL ROARING IN THE LEAD SHOWING NO SIGNS
OF SLOWING DOWN

CIGARSHOP HAS TURNED WHAT HAD BEEN A COLT 'TRIO'
CHASING THE FREAKY FAST FILLY ~
INTO A SOLITARY DETERMINED DRAMATIC EFFORT
LEAVING THE OTHER TWO IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR!

HE HAS GAINED GROUND SO QUICKLY THAT RUFFIAN'S LEAD
HAS BEEN REDUCED TO A HALF LENGTH AS THESE TWO
NOW ARE IN A TIGHTLY CONTESTED MATCH RACE

AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME

RUFFIAN & CIGARSHOP LEADING THE WAY BY 6 LENGTHS
OVER EL PRADO ~ POST TIME MIKE

EVEN FARTHER BACK ARE PEEPTOAD ~ STARK ~ BLUNNY
THUNDER CAT ~ REAL QUIET ~ TIGER DANCER & CATALINA

THE WIRE LOOMS JUST AHEAD AS THE COLT & FILLY BATTLE
NECK & NECK ~ STRIDE FOR STRIDE ~ RUFFIAN AND CIGARSHOP

HOLD ON FOLKS ---- SUDDENLY THE CROWD HAS ERUPTED
WITH A DEAFENING ROAR AS SOMEONE IS FLYING UP THE RAIL

IT'S GONNA TAKE RECORD BREAKING FRACTIONS FOR ANYONE
TO CATCH THE TWO FRONT RUNNERS ~

HARD TO SEE WHO IT IS YET WITH THE REST OF THE FIELD
TIGHTLY BUNCHED EXCEPT FOR CATALINA WHOSE HOPES
FOR A REPEAT VICTORY WERE LEFT AT THE GATE

NOW WE CAN SEE WHO HAS EVERYONE UP ON THEIR FEET

JUST LIKE A JUNGLE CAT WHO HAS SPOTTED PREY FAR AHEAD
TIGER DANCER IS ROARING AND CLAWING HER WAY PAST
EVERYONE IN FRONT OF HER ~

AND THE CROWD IS GOING WILD!
THE FIERCE FILLY HAS FLOWN BY THE FRONT RUNNERS AS
IF THEY WERE STANDING STILL LEAVING THEM IN HER WAKE

SHE HAS WON BY DAYLIGHT EASILY BY AT LEAST 20+ LENGTHS!
ZENYATTA & CRYPTOCLEARANCE WOULD BE PROUD OF THIS EFFORT
EVEN STIRRING MEMORIES OF SECRETARIAT'S BELMONT

THIS KIND OF FINISH IS ALWAYS A BOLD REMINDER OF
''IT AIN'T OVER TILL THE STOUT LADY SINGS!''
OR IN THIS CASE ~ THE QUICK-STEP WAY FASTER THAN A WALTZ!
