GOOD AFTERNOON & WELCOME TO MIDWEEK MAYHEM

DEFENDING CHAMP, CATALINA, WILL HAVE 9 CONTENTIOUS CAPABLE CHALLENGERS
TRYING TO PREVENT ANOTHER ROMP TO VICTORY

AND AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO!

LIKE TWIN TORNADOES, RUFFIAN & ROAMIN LEAVE THE REST
OF THE RUNNERS WONDERING IF THEIR GATES MALFUNCTIONED!

THE FIERCE FILLY & CRAFTY COLT HEAD INTO THE TURN
WITH AN UNBELIEVABLE LEAD OVER THE FIELD

OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME
IT IS STILL JUST 2 SWISHING TAILS FAR IN FRONT
RUFFIAN AND ROAMIN IN A RUNAWAY RUCKUS

FAR BACK A SUDDEN SURGE OF SPEED BY TIGER DANCER
AND THUNDER CAT BEGINS TO TURN AN EXHIBITION INTO MORE
OF A RACE AS THESE 2 FILLYS START TO GAIN GROUND
ON THE DYNAMIC DUO IN THE LEAD

DUSTY BEGINS TO SHOW HER FRISKY FEET THE WAY
MOVING UP TO JOIN TIGER DANCER & THUNDER CAT

BUT THIS FILLY TRIO IS STILL VERY FAR BEHIND THE
FRONT RUNNING DUO AT THE FRONT

CIGARSHOP NOW IS IN 'HOT-TO-TROT' MODE RIGHT
AT THE TAUNTING TAILS OF THE FILLY TRIO

CRUZAN, STALLING OUT OF THE GATE, NOW HAS FOUND
HIS FOOTING AND JOINS CIGARSHOP BEHIND THE FILLYS

BLUNNY IS NEXT BUT SEEMS TO RUNNING ON A 1/2 CHARGED ENERGIZER-BUNNY-BATTERY

EVEN FARTHER BACK IS DEFENDING CHAMP, CATALINA
FOLLOWED BY A SLUGGISH EL PRADO

THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH

RUFFIAN & ROAMIN NECK AND NECK FROM THE GATE
CONTINUE TO SHOW THEIR HEELS TO THE REST OF THE FIELD

THUNDER CAT WITH AN EXPLOSIVE SURGE OF SPEED IS
MOVING UP AS TIGER DANCER IS SUDDENLY DROPPING BACK ~

DUSTY IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY CIGARSHOP

TIGER DANCER & CRUZAN ARE ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK
AS BLUNNY IS SHOWING NO ENERGIZER ENERGY TODAY IS NEXT

FAR BACK IS DEFENDING CHAMP, CATALINA, SEEING HER CHANCES OF A REPEAT VICTORY
DISAPPEARING IN THE DISTANCE IS JUST TROTTING ALONG NOW

EL PRADO WHO WENT TO HER KNEES EXITING THE GATE
HAS NEVER RECOVERED FROM ALMOST LOSING HER JOCKEY
AND WILL BE EASED AND EXAMINED BACK AT THE BARN

AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME

RUFFIAN AND ROAMIN ~ FROM THE GATE TOGETHER
SIDE BY SIDE ~ NECK & NECK ~ NEITHER ONE GIVING IN

THUNDER CAT CONTINUES TO GAIN GROUND
