" JOURNEY NOT UPON THE PATH OF ANOTHER LEST YOU ARRIVE AT THEIR DESTINATION ~ AND NOT YOUR OWN! 😔 "
GOOD AFTERNOON + WELCOME TO MIDWEEK MAYHEM-BOTS DAY
BRINGING ALL THE EXCITEMENT FROM MONMOUTH PARK CELEBRATING JULY 4th OUR FEATURE EVENT WILL BE THE ''FIERCE + FEARLESS FIRECRACKER'' STAKES
UNFORTUNATELY -- DUE TO TECHNICAL FLIGHT ISSUES, DEFENDING CHAMP --> CRUZAN WAS A LATE SCRATCH AND UNABLE TO RUN FOR THE REPEAT VICTORY TODAY
ALSO MISSING THEIR FLIGHTS WERE EL PRADO + REAL QUIET SO THE JULY 4TH CELEBRATION RACE WILL ONLY HAVE 7 RUNNERS
A SLIGHT DELAY CAUSED BY DUSTY WHO IS BEING A FEISTY FILLY SHOWING NO INDICATION SHE IS READY TO GO INTO THE GATE! CATNIP LACED HORSE TREATS FINALLY HAVE CONVINCED HER!
AND AWAY THEY GO IN THE 'FIERCE + FEARLESS FIRECRACKER' STAKES....
CATALINA IS AWAY FIRST TAKING A SHORT LEAD WITH AN 'ENERGIZER-BLUNNY' HOT ON HER TAIL
CIGARSHOP ~ RUFFIAN ~ TIGER DANCER ARE JUST A LENGTH BACK
FOLLOWED BY A DAWDLING DUO OF THUNDER CAT + DUSTY
~~THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH~~
THE BOTS (BATTLE OF THE SEXES) IS LIVING UP TO ITS NAME
CATALINA ~ FEROCIOUS + FLAWLESS FILLY FOLLOWED BY AN EQUALLY CHARGED-UP 'ENERGIZER BLUNNY' RIGHT AT HER TAIL
ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK IS THE 'BIG-CAT'-DYNAMIC-DUO OF RUFFIAN WHOSE 'INNER CHEETAH' IS NOT SO FAST TODAY AND THE TENACIOUS TIGER DANCER WHOSE DANCE TEMPO IS A LOT LESS 'PURRRKY' THAN A 'QUIK-STEP' TODAY!
BACK IN ANOTHER TIME ZONE ARE CIGARSHOP + THUNDER CAT JUST MEANDERING ALONG BUT STILL WAY IN FRONT OF A FALTERING, FATIGUED FRANTIC FILLY, DUSTY ~ WHO IS FADING FASTER THAN YESTERDAY'S MEWS
~~AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME~~
CATALINA JUST A NECK IN FRONT OF A VERY ENERGIZED-BLUNNY THE DUELING DUO ARE WAY IN FRONT OF ALL CHALLENGERS BUT WHOSE NOSE WILL TOUCH THE WIRE FIRST?
THE FLAMBOYANT FIERCE FILLY OR THE CALCULATING CLASSY COLT?
HERE COMES THE WIRE ~ WAY TOO CLOSE TO CALL! LOOKS LIKE WE MAY EVEN HAVE A DEAD HEAT FOR BOTS DAY! EQUAL OPPORTUNITY BRAGGING RIGHTS!
HOLD ALL TICKETS: STEWARDS REVIEWING REPLAY
OBJECTION BY CATALINA'S JOCKEY AGAINST BLUNNY FOR INTERFERENCE IN THE FINAL STRIDES FOR: VEERING OUT
AFTER A VERY LONG WAIT, THE STEWARDS HAVE DECIDED THAT ALTHOUGH BLUNNY INDEED DID VEER OUT A SMIDGE IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO DQ HIM FROM THE VICTORY HE WILL, HOWEVER, RECEIVE A FINE FOR RECKLESS RIDING
SO THE BOTS GLORY GOES TO THE COMPETITIVE COLTS! THANKS TO A HIGHLY CHARGED 'ENERGIZER-BLUNNY'
