GOOD EVENING & WELCOME TO A LATE NITE SUPURR-SATURDAY
COMING TO YOU FROM SAM HOUSTON RACETRACK

OUR FEATURE EVENT FROM THE LONE STAR STATE WILL BE
THE 'TEXAS 2-STEP' STAKES

DEFENDING CHAMP, CRUZAN WILL HAVE 10 CHALLENGERS TRYING TO PREVENT A REPEAT WINNING PERFORMANCE ~

AS 10 ARE STANDING QUIETLY IN THE GATE, ONCE AGAIN IT'S
RUFFIAN WITH HER 'SHENANIGANS' HOLDING UP THE START!
PERHAPS THIS FRISKY FILLY NEEDS A BIT OF GATE RE-TRAINING?

WITH EXTRA HELPERS & A HANDFUL OF CATNIP THE FEISTY FILLY
FINALLY HAS BEEN CONVINCED TO GO INTO HER GATE!

~ AND THEY'RE OFF IN THE 'TEXAS 2-STEP' STAKES ~

IT'S A FAST FILLY TRIO 2-STEPPIN THEIR WAY TO AN EARLY LEAD
TIGER DANCER ~ PEEPTOAD & THUNDER CAT LEAD THE WAY

BUT THAT LEAD DIDN'T LAST VERY LONG AS POST-TIME-MIKE
SUDDENLY SURGED WITH A POWERFUL MOVE TO RUN RIGHT
PAST THE 3 FILLYS IN FRONT TAKING TOTAL COMMAND

===== OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME =====

POST-TIME-MIKE'S RUN WAS SCINTILLATING ~ BUT SHORT LIVED
AS TIGER DANCER ROARED RIGHT BY HIM TO TAKE CHARGE!

IT'S 10 LENGTHS BACK TO A SHOCKED POST-TIME-MIKE
--- WHO NOW IS JOINED BY PEEPTOAD

ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK ARE
THUNDER-CAT ~ BLUNNY + DUSTY

REAL QUIET + CIGARSHOP ARE NEXT FOLLOWED BY
THE 'TURTLE-TRIO' OF
CATALINA ~ RUFFIAN & DEFENDING CHAMP = CRUZAN

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

TIGER DANCER CONTINUES ON HER MERRY WAY IN FRONT

POST-TIME-MIKE HAS REGAINED HIS EARLIER MOMENTUM AND
IS GAINING GROUND ON THE FRONT RUNNING DANCING TIGER

THUNDER CAT WITH A 'ROAR' OF HER OWN IS PUTTING
PRESSURE ON THE FRONT RUNNING SPEEDY DUO

DUSTY IS RIGHT THERE WITH THUNDER CAT
--- FOLLOWED BY PEEPTOAD & BLUNNY ---

IT'S SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK TO
CIGARSHOP ~ CATALINA & REAL QUIET

THE ''SLOW-SNAIL-SNOOZERS'' ~CRUZAN AND RUFFIAN
ARE SO FAR BACK THAT ANY CHANCE OF MONEY IS NOW DISAPPEARING QUICKER THAN THAT DUO IS RUNNING!

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

THE RACE HAS SUDDENLY TURNED INTO A FILLY~COLT CHALLENGE!

POST TIME MIKE IS RIGHT AT TIGER DANCER'S TAIL AS THE FILLY
GLANCES BACK TO SEE HIM GAINING WITH EVERY STRIDE!

THE CROWD IS GOING WILD AS ONLY A MATCH RACE THIS CLOSE
CAN PROVOKE ~ UNLESS SOMEONE EMERGES FROM 'THE CLOUDS'

BUT THAT JUST AIN'T HAPPENING!
THUNDER CAT & DUSTY ARE SO FAR BACK THEY ARE NOW JUST
RUNNING FOR THE SHOW MONEY& 'THE PRECIOUS'

TIGER DANCER & POST-TIME-MIKE ~ NECK & NECK
HERE'S THE WIRE -------- WAY TOO CLOSE TO CALL

STEWARDS ARE REVIEWING THE REPLAY AMIDST OBJECTIONS
