          *THE DANCERS NOT THE CHIPMUNKS!*
         


DEFENDING CHAMP ---> POST TIME MIKE
WILL HAVE 9 CHALLENGERS INSTEAD OF 10
DUE TO THE LATE SCRATCH OF CIGARSHOP....
~~Haaaay, What about Meeee?? 
         


9 ARE STANDING QUIETLY IN THE GATE
WAITING FOR THE DEFENDING CHAMP
POST TIME MIKE .... TO SETTLE DOWN!

THE COLT IS BEING VERY ORNERY TRYING TO 'FROLIC'
WITH RUFFIAN WHO IS HAVING NO PART OF HIS ANTICS!

FINALLY, WITH THE AID OF A MILK BONE DOG BISCUIT
   AND GENTLE URGING BY ASSISTANT HANDLERS
   THE QUIRKY COLT HAS DECIDED TO GO ON IN!


AND AWAAAAY THEY GO       
        IN THE 'RUFFZILLA BIRTHDAY' STAKES ....
           


OUT FOR A BRIEF EARLY LEAD ARE DUSTY -&- CATALINA
  FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY RUFFIAN + TIGER DANCER

THESE FOUR FRISKY FILLYS LEAD THE FIELD INTO THE TURN


     ~~OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME~~


    WITH AN INCREDIBLE SUDDEN SURGE OF SPEED ~
REAL QUIET HAS TOTALLY DEMOLISHED THE LEAD OF THE FILLYS
      TAKING COMPLETE COMMAND OF A HUGE LEAD

DUSTY IS THE ONLY FILLY OF THE FOUR WHO HAS MANAGED
TO STAY RELATIVELY CLOSE TO THE CONTENTIOUS COLT AHEAD

TIGER DANCER HAS SASHAYED HERSELF INTO 3rd
BUT IS STILL AT LEAST 15 LENGTHS BEHIND DUSTY

IT'S ANOTHER 6 LENGTHS BACK TO A NOT-SO-ENERGIZED-BLUNNY
BETWEEN A PAIR OF FEISTY FILLYS: THUNDER CAT & CATALINA
THE CONNIVING COLT SEEMS TO HAVE A BIG SMILE ON HIS FACE!

BACK ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS ARE PEEPTOAD & RUFFIAN
              SHOWING LITTLE SPEED SO FAR

WITH EVEN LESS MOMENTUM WAY FAR BEHIND ARE A PAIR OF
CONSERVATIVE CRAFTY COLTS ~ CRUZAN & POST TIME MIKE
JUST BIDING THEIR TIME TO BRING ON THEIR LATE CLOSING RUN


     ~THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH~


THE CALCULATING CAPRICIOUS COLT -- REAL QUIET
HAS OPENED UP AN EVEN BIGGER LEAD OVER THE FIELD
TURNING THE RACE INTO A DYNAMIC DISPLAY OF POWER

DUSTY IS STILL RUNNING STRONGLY AND APPEARS TO BE
THE ONLY CHALLENGING COMPETITION TO THE CONTENTIOUS
         COLT RUNNING AWAY WITH THE RACE

PEEPTOAD IS FINALLY GETTING HER MOJO INTO GEAR, AS
SHE LEAPS PAST EVERYONE IN FRONT OF HER TO MOVE
CLOSER ~ WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE OF SOME PURSE MONEY

THUNDER CAT IS ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BEHIND PEEPTOAD

CRUZAN ~ BLUNNY ~ TIGER DANCER ARE NEXT BY 2 LENGTHS

CATALINA -&- RUFFIAN EVEN FARTHER BACK

POST TIME MIKE SHOWING ABSOLUTELY NO SPEED TODAY
IS SO FAR BACK HE IS PUTTING ON A SLOW-SNAIL-SIZZLELESS
SHOW OF LETHARGY AS ANY CHANCE OF A REPEAT VICTORY
WAS NEVER EVEN A REMOTE POSSIBILITY FROM THE START


     ~DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~


THE CLASSY COLT LEADING THE WAY IS SO FAR IN FRONT
THAT THOSE CHASING HIS TAIL ARE ONLY RUNNING FOR 2nd
                   


DUSTY CLEARLY IS THAT ONE CONTENTIOUS CHALLENGER WHO
MIGHT HAVE A SLIM KITTY WHISKER CHANCE OF CATCHING
      THE CAREFREE 'CHARISMATIC' COLT IN FRONT 

SOMETIMES WISHES COME TRUE ~ OTHER DAYS THEY DON'T
ALL OUT AND TRYING HER BEST ~ DUSTY COULD NOT REACH
    THE CONSISTENTLY COMPETENT COLT AT THE WIRE

SHE IS A SENSATIONAL 2nd WITH A RUN THAT ON ANY OTHER DAY
               WOULD HAVE BEEN A WINNING EFFORT!

PEEPTOAD ~ SLUGGISH IN THE FIRST HALF, CLOSED WITH
SIZZLING SPEED -&- POWER, LEAPING INTO THE SHOW SPOT

THUNDER CAT FINDS JUST ENOUGH TO STEAL 'THE PRECIOUS'

ONCE AGAIN WE HAVE A DELAY -- AS 10 IN THE GATE ARE
  WAITING FOR RUFFIAN TO STOP HER 'SHENANIGANS'
    DANCING -&- PRANCING LIKE A CIRCUS PERFORMER


(RUMOR HAS IT, HER TRAINER HAD BEEN SHOWING HER
VIDEOS OF ZENYATTA DANCING IN THE POST PARADES)

FINALLY SOME CATNIP LACED HORSE TREATS HAVE CONVINCED
       THE SILLY FILLY THAT IT'S TIME TO RUN A RACE!


  AND AWAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO ....
          IN THE 'MEMORIAL DAY' STAKES
   


          OUT FOR THE EARLY LEAD IS ...
      A QUINTET HEADING TO THE TURN
      (DC) PEEPTOAD ~ POST TIME MIKE ~
        BLUNNY ~ DUSTY ~ REAL QUIET


      ~~OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME~~


THE FAST FRISKY 5 HAVE NOW BEEN REDUCED TO JUST 2
       IT IS PEEPTOAD WHO EMERGES WITH THE LEAD
     AND THE 'ENERGIZER-BLUNNY' RIGHT ON HER TAIL
   


IT'S ABOUT 8 LENGTHS BACK TO
DUSTY ~ REAL QUIET ~ CRUZAN
WITH POST TIME MIKE + CIGARSHOP
    NOW JOINING THOSE 3
IN A LINE ACROSS THE TRACK

     THIS NEW QUICK QUINTET IS FOLLOWED BY
THUNDER CAT -&- CATALINA A FEW LENGTHS BACK

SOMEWHERE IN THE FAR DISTANCE IS THE 'BIG-CAT' DUO
TIGER DANCER -&- RUFFIAN -- WHO APPARENTLY LEFT THEIR
       STEALTH AND SPEED ALTER EGOS ....
DREAMING ABOUT MUNCHING ON A CATNIP BALE IN THE BARN!
   


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


DEFENDING CHAMP PEEPTOAD ~ STILL IN COMMAND
BUT HER LEAD IS DIMINISHING QUICKLY
AS THE CLOSERS ARE PICKING UP SPEED 
WITH BLUNNY NOW NECK -&- NECK WITH THE TIRING FILLY

SUDDENLY THERE IS A HUGE ROAR FROM THE CROWD

A DYNAMIC DUO OF POST TIME MIKE -&- DUSTY
HAVE SPROUTED INVISIBLE IMAGINARY WINGS
     FLYING PAST EVERYONE IN THEIR WAY

THERE THEY GO RIGHT PAST BLUNNY -&- PEEPTOAD!

BLISTERING BODACIOUS FIERCE FRACTIONS HAVE PUT
  THIS FILLY-COLT-COMBO FAR AHEAD OF THE REST


     ~~AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~~


POST TIME MIKE -&- DUSTY IN A BREATHTAKING BATTLE
NECK AND NECK ~ STRIDE FOR STRIDE ~ SIDE BY SIDE

BLUNNY IS NEXT ~ ALL OUT ~ BUT HIS ENERGIZER BATTERY IS
STARTING TO DRAIN AS THE DISTANCE TO THE DUO IN FRONT
IS NOW LOOKING LIKE AN IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE TO OVERCOME

DEFENDING CHAMP, PEEPTOAD, WHOSE BRILLIANT BEGINNING
  EFFORT HAD HER LOOKING LIKE A REPEAT WINNER, IS NOW
A LOST CAUSE, AS THE FILLY IS LEG WEARY & LOSING GROUND

WITH THE WIRE JUST AHEAD, THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET

CHEERING ON DUSTY AND THE DEEP VOICES OF MEN,
ROOTING ON THEIR COLT CHAMP,  POST TIME MIKE!

        TRYING TO PREVENT THAT


        THE HORSES ARE ALL IN THE GATE
THE JOCKEYS READY WITH 6 PAIR OF GOGGLES {May Need MORE!!}
         


THE CROWD ADORNED WITH PLASTIC SHEETS



               
                        AND WE ARE READY TO RUN!   
AWAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO IN THE 'HIGH HOPES' STAKES ....
                   


     A ''6-PACK'' OF SPEEDSTERS
HAVE COME AWAY WITH A SHORT LEAD:
PEEPTOAD ~ POST TIME MIKE ~ DUSTY 
CRUZAN  ~ CATALINA ~ THUNDER CAT



REAL QUIET IS NEXT -- RIGHT AT THEIR TAILS
        HEADING INTO THE TURN

                 THE REMAINING FOUR OF:
CIGARSHOP ~ BLUNNY ~ RUFFIAN ~ TIGER DANCER
ARE NOW PLAYING A GAME OF CATCH UP EARLY ON


     ~~OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME~~


THE SPEEDY 6-PACK IS NOW A FIERCE FOURSOME IN THE LEAD
     PEEPTOAD ~ THUNDER CAT ~ REAL QUIET & CIGARSHOP

BLUNNY ~ DUSTY ARE STILL RUNNING STRONGLY JUST 3 LENGTHS BACK
   FOLLOWED BY A TRIO OF CATALINA ~ CRUZAN ~ RUFFIAN

       POST TIME MIKE SPOOKED
AT THE SHENANIGANS IN THE INFIELD
LOSING ALL FOCUS AND EARLY MOMENTUM



TRAILING THE FIELD BY DAYLIGHT IS -- THE DANCING TIGER
       WHO IS DOING THE SLOW-SNAIL-SAMBA
APPARENTLY FORGETTING HOW TO DO THE 'QUIK-STEP'
         

   THE FILLY SEEMS TO BE WAY MORE INTERESTED IN THE
PREAKNESS PARTY-GOERS ANTICS THAN RUNNING A RACE!
     


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


PEEPTOAD SEEMS TO HAVE FOUND THE WATER SOAKED TRACK
PURRR-FECT FOR HER STYLE OF RUNNING AND NOW HAS
   'LEAPED'  INTO COMMAND OF THE LEAD ALL ALONE
           


THUNDER CAT AND REAL QUIET ARE ABOUT 4 LENGTHS BACK
       WITH BLUNNY -&- DUSTY NEXT TRYING TO KEEP UP

CIGARSHOP ALSO GOT DISTRACTED BY FANS IN THE INFIELD
  LOSING HIS EARLY FOCUS ....  JUST AS POST TIME MIKE
      HAD DONE COMING OUT OF THE TURN
    ~Cigarshop FANS~   


NO WONDER SOME DEDICATED RACING FANS ARE
    OPPOSED TO THE INFIELD SHENANIGANS ....
WHICH SEEMS TO AFFECT SOME HORSES SO BADLY
IT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE OF A WINNING EFFORT OR LOSS


     ~~AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~~


PEEPTOAD CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN A 5 LENGTH LEAD
APPARENTLY REALLY LOVING THE PUDDLES SHE IS GLIDING
RIGHT OVER AND NOW ... EVEN INCREASING HER SPEED
         


THUNDER CAT -&- REAL QUIET ARE NECK -&- NECK IN A
BATTLE OF THEIR OWN FOR THE 'BRIDESMAID TROPHY'

SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK ARE BLUNNY & DUSTY EACH HOPING
TO STEAL 'THE PRECIOUS' AS A WIN IS DEFINITELY OUT OF REACH

CIGARSHOP IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY DEFENDING CHAMP -- CATALINA
   WHO NOW REALIZES A REPEAT VICTORY IS LOST IN THE FOG   
             


       EVEN FARTHER BACK IS THE TURTLE-TEMPO-TRIO OF
               CRUZAN ~ POST TIME MIKE AND RUFFIAN
WHO MUST HAVE LEFT HER 'INNER CHEETAH' BACK AT THE BARN
         


IN ANOTHER TIME ZONE, IS --- TIGER DANCER
JUST MEANDERING ALONG ... APPARENTLY
MESMERIZED BY THE INFIELD PARTY ANTICS

WITH THE WIRE JUST AHEAD PEEPTOAD HAS LEAPED INTO AN
EVEN BIGGER LEAD, SIMPLY RELISHING THE TRACK CONDITIONS
HAVING HER OWN "PUDDLE-PARTY-OF-A-PERFECT-PERFORMANCE"!

              ~~PERSISTANT -&- PASSIONATE  PEEPTOAD  FANS~~

WHERE DEFENDING CHAMP, REAL QUIET, HOPES TO REPEAT
HIS SUPURR IMPRESSIVE VICTORY GALLOP OF LAST TIME!

WITH THE LATE SCRATCH OF TIGER DANCER ~ REAL QUIET
WILL HAVE 10 CHALLENGERS TRYING TO STOP HIS REPEAT

TEN ARE STANDING QUIETLY WAITING FOR THE RAMBUNCTIOUS RUFFIAN
TO STOP HER 'SHENANIGANS' AS THE FRISKY FILLY IS REFUSING TO GO IN ~
            WHICH MAY BE A 'CLUE' TO HOW SHE RUNS TODAY!
                                             
     
HER LOYAL 'CHEETAH-LOVIN-FANS' KNOW IT'S EITHER A VERY GOOD   
  SIGN OR A VERY BAD ONE ~ NEVER JUST MIDDLE OF THE ROAD!
SHE EITHER IS READY TO ROAR OR CONTENT TO LOLLYGAG AROUND!

WITH SOME CATNIP LACED HORSE TREATS, THE FILLY HAS
    CONCEDED AND ENTERED HER GATE RELUCTANTLY

                       FINALLY WE ARE READY TO RUN
AND AWAAAAAAAAY THEY GO IN THE 'TINKER BELL' STAKES

IT'S A SUPURR SPEEDY PEEPTOAD LEAPING TO A BIG LEAD
              TAKING THE FIELD INTO THE TURN
                                         
       
         ===== OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME =====

IT IS NOW THUNDER CAT IN COMMAND BY 10 LENGTHS OVER PEEPTOAD
         WHO IS ABOUT 8 LENGTHS IN FRONT OF A COLT-QUARTET
COMPRISED OF: CIGARSHOP ~ CRUZAN ~ POST TIME MIKE & RAVEN

                CATALINA HAS NOW JOINED THOSE 4 COLTS 

THE FIELD IS REALLY STRETCHED OUT OVER A LONG DISTANCE
FROM THUNDER CAT AT THE FRONT TO  A FEEBLE FOURSOME
    SO FAR  BACK IT'S LIKE WATCHING 2 DIFFERENT RACES!

                           TRAILING BY AT LEAST 20 LENGTHS ARE
    DEFENDING CHAMP, REAL QUIET, DUSTY ~ BLUNNY & A SLOTH SLOW RUFFIAN
WHO MUST HAVE LEFT HER ''INNER CHEETAH'' BACK AT THE BARN IN A SNOOZE FEST!

                    THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
THUNDER CAT CONTINUES TO LEAD THE WAY IMPRESSIVELY
            SHOWING NO SIGNS OF SLOWING DOWN YET

CIGARSHOP HAS TAKEN OVER 2ND AS PEEPTOAD BEGAN TO TIRE

SUDDENLY THE CROWD IS ON THEIR FEET SCREAMING LIKE BANSHEES

THE REASON FOR THIS HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR AS CATALINA
WITH A SUPER-SONIC-SURGE OF SPEED HAS TOTALLY ROARED
RIGHT PAST PEEPTOAD, CIGARSHOP AND THUNDER CAT AS IF
     THEY WERE JUST OUT FOR A BREEZING WORKOUT!
                                       

THE FRISKY FAST FILLY IS ON FIRE TAKING TOTAL COMMAND OF
THE RACE AS IF SHE WERE ALONE PUTTING ON AN EXHIBITION
REMINDING SOME FANS OF SECRETARIAT'S BELMONT RACE!
                                       

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

CATALINA IS SO FAR AHEAD OF THE REST THAT ONLY PEGASUS
    WOULD BE ABLE TO FLY FAST ENOUGH TO PASS HER!

THUNDER CAT IS ALL OUT BUT NOT GAINING ON THE FIERCE FILLY
AS CATALINA IS AT LEAST 28 LENGTHS IN FRONT OF THE FIELD
WHO NOW ARE JUST RUNNING FOR A PIECE OF THE PURSE MONEY

           THUNDER CAT IS STILL RUNNING STRONGLY
BUT ALL SHE CAN HOPE FOR IS THE ''BRIDESMAID'' PRIZE

CIGARSHOP IS MOVING ALONG NICELY BUT IS STILL 10 LENGTHS BEHIND THUNDER CAT
WITH A LEG WEARY PEEPTOAD ANOTHER 8 LENGTHS BEHIND CIGARSHOP AS BLUNNY
FINALLY FOUND HIS "ENERGIZER BUNNY''  MOJO AND IS CLOSING QUICKLY ON PEEPTOAD

RAVEN IS NEXT FOLLOWED BY DEFENDING CHAMP, REAL QUIET, WHO
NOW IS SEEING ALL CHANCE OF A REPEAT VICTORY DISAPPEARING
     INTO THE DISTANCE AS POST TIME MIKE JOINS REAL QUIET

CRUZAN IS ANOTHER 2 LENGTHS BACK FOLLOWED BY DUSTY

   FAR BACK IS RUFFIAN WHO HAS APPARENTLY NO CLUE SHE IS IN A RACE
  FIRST ~ STALLING OUT OF THE GATE WHEN IT OPENED THEN MEANDERING   
        ALL OVER THE TRACK AS IF THIS WERE JUST A WALK IN THE PARK

           AT THE FRONT, CATALINA HAS ROARED PAST THE WIRE
WITH THE JOCKEY  TRYING HIS BEST TO PUT THE BRAKES ON BUT SO FAR
THAT ISN'T WORKING AS THE FILLY IS STILL FIRING ON ALL CYLINDERS
                                             

THUNDER CAT IS A STRONG 2ND WITH AN EFFORT THAT ON ANY
        OTHER RACE DAY WOULD HAVE BEEN A WINNING ONE

CIGARSHOP TAKES 3RD AS PEEPTOAD WITH 1 TINY 'LEAP'
JUST HOLDS ON TO OUTLAST THE ENERGIZER-BLUNNY ~
STEALING  ''THE PRECIOUS''  MUCH TO THAT COLT'S DISMAY
