**ROUND -N- ROUND RESULTS**

GOOD AFTERNOON -&- WELCOME TO
MIDWEEK MAYHEM @ SARATOGA

TODAY IS NATIONAL CAROUSEL DAY
HONORING THAT HOLIDAY --
OUR FEATURE EVENT IS: THE ''PAINTED PONY'' STAKES

EACH HORSE WILL CARRY THE SILKS DESIGNED BY THE TRAINER
THESE SILKS WILL BE DESCRIBED IN THE RESULTS CALL WRAP UP

DEFENDING CHAMP -- THUNDER CAT
WILL HAVE 8 CHALLENGERS DUE TO
THE LATE SCRATCH OF CIGARSHOP ~ NO REASON GIVEN

~ THE FAB NINE ARE LOOKIN FINE ~
ADORNED IN SOME OUTRAGEOUS OUTFITS
AND NOW ... ON WITH THE SHOW!

AWAAAAAAAY THEY GO IN
THE ''PAINTED-PONY'' STAKES ....

IT'S DUSTY SPRINTING AWAY QUICKLY
TO TAKE THE EARLY LEAD WITH
NO CHALLENGERS CLOSE ~ YET
WITH A LONG WAY TO GO

~~HEADING OUT OF THE TURN~~

THINGS HAVE DRASTICALLY CHANGED AS
DUSTY LOST HER EARLY SPEEDY MOMENTUM
BEING DISTRACTED BY SOMETHING CRAWLING
AROUND IN THE INFIELD ~

IT IS NOW CATALINA -&- CRUZAN
IN COMMAND OF THE LEAD
FOLLOWED BY A TENACIOUS TRIO OF:
BLUNNY ~ DUSTY ~ TIGER DANCER

REAL QUIET + THUNDER CAT ARE NEXT

AND STILL THE TRAILING TWOSOME REMAIN:
EL PRADO ~ NOT SHOWING ANY INCENTIVE TO RUN
AND RUFFIAN, WHO SEEMS A BIT 'UNINSPIRED' BY HER SILKS,
YET TO MAKE ANY SORT OF SPEEDY SURGE BY HER 'INNER-CHEETAH'

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

CATALINA + CRUZAN CONTINUE TO LEAD THE WAY

TIGER DANCER WALTZES UP INTO 3rd
FOLLOWED BY THE 'ENERGIZER-BLUNNY'
WHO APPEARS TO HAVE A 3/4 CHARGED BATTERY

HE IS JUST A LENGTH AHEAD OF EL PRADO
WHO SUDDENLY FOUND HER STALKING MODE
FOLLOWED BY DUSTY WHO IS STILL HANGIN TUFF
IN WITH A CHANCE AT SOME PURSE MONEY

~~AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~~

CATALINA + CRUZAN CONTINUE NECK -&- NECK
THE FRISKY FIERCELY FAST FILLY
THE CALCULATING CONTENTIOUS COLT
STRIDE FOR STRIDE -- SEPARATING THEMSELVES FROM
TIGER DANCER ~ BLUNNY ~ EL PRADO ~ DUSTY

RUFFIAN -- SO FAR TOTALLY UNAFFECTED
BY HER 'INNER-CHEETAH'
SHOWING NO SIGNS OF SPEED AT ALL

REAL QUIET -- NOT DOING MUCH BETTER
IS JUST OFF RUFFIAN'S TAIL

DEFENDING CHAMP -- THUNDER CAT
IS STILL TRAILING AT A TEPID-TURTLE PACE
THUNDER-STRUCK BY THE SPEED IN FRONT OF HER

HERE COMES THE WIRE AS 2 NOSES TOUCH IT ALMOST IN SYNC
STEWARDS WILL NEED TIME REVIEWING THE REPLAY FOR SURE

IN THE MEANTIME, THE CROWD IS GETTING A CHANCE AT
ENJOYING THE OUTRAGEOUS SILKS WORN BY THE RUNNERS
WHICH WILL BE DESCRIBED WITH THE OFFICIAL RESULTS

THE LIGHTS HAVE FINALLY STOPPED FLASHING ....

**CIGARSHOP
Hibernating Bear Never Awakened In Time To Run

**STARK ==> ''The-Shark''

They use electro-sensitive body organs to
help them feel the presence of prey
