Good Afternoon and Welcome To
LAUREL PARK RACETRACK
Our Feature Race Today Is The
RUFFARAMA STAKES
The Horses Are Now Entering The Track for our Post Parade
Leading them off is:
CRIMINAL TYPE
An older Stallion who may have
Snow on the Roof ---
But Fire in the Furnace!
Lately he has suffered from a previous
gate injury and has not indicated that he is back in his usual winning form
He was Vanned off in his last 2 races
He will go off at odds of 15/1
In Post Postion #2
DUSTY
A Filly Who is a Threat in any race
because of her running style
She is like another version of the Great-Zenyatta!
Never consider the leader has won untill this Filly comes a runnin late in the race
---- closing with a tremendous kick!
In her Last 2 races tho, this Filly totally changed her running style and went for the Early Lead -
And winnng one of them gate to wire!
She will leave the gate at 9/2
In Gate #3
KD
Another Stallion who always runs with great determination, and never knows the word Quit!
He is always full of run and rarely runs a poor race and usually is in the money on the toteboard!
He has finished 1st or 2nd in his last few starts and seems ready to run big today
He goes off as the favorite 5/2
In Post Position #4
RUFFIAN
A Feisty Filly who often displays her 'Shenanigans' in the Post Parade and starting gate - tossing her jockey!
She is inconsistent and can win one race only to finish last in her next start
She Won her last race and was 2nd in the race before that one
She will leave the gate at 7/2
In Gate 5
ELITE MERCEDES
This is a Classy Filly who always is
In-It-To-Win-It!
She rarely has a poor performance and shows up 'More Than Ready' to run every time!
She will go off at odds of 6/1
Rounding out the Field in PP #6
INTO-THE-MYSTIC (aka: ITM)
This Filly broke her maiden in this series last race with determination and style
Based on her other past performances she seems ready to run today with a big effort
She goes off at 9/1
We now turn you over to our
Track Announcer:
COURAGEOUS CAT
Thank you Trevor
The Horses are standing quietly now after having waited for CRIMINAL TYPE to enter the gate -
apparently not much into running today
And--- AWAAAAAAAAY They Go
Going for the Early Lead are
DUSTY + RUFFIAN
With KD right at their heels...
Following that Trio are
INTO-THE-MYSTIC
ELITE MERCEDES
CRIMINAL TYPE
3 across the track around 3 lengths
behind the front runners
Heading into the Far Turn
RUFFIAN has fired on all Cylinders
turning on the heat and putting her nose in front of KD
who is staying right at her neck
DUSTY has dropped back by 2 lengths
and ELITE MERCEDES - ITM and
CRIMINAL-TYPE have yet to start their
engines!
At the Top of the Stretch
RUFFIAN has found yet another gear and is moving strongly
But K D is showing NO signs of letting her run away with the race!
He is as determined today as we have ever seen him run
ELITE MERCEDES has moved into 3rd but she is 5 lengths behind the front 2 leaders
DUSTY is struggling to keep up with
Into-The-Mystic + CRIMINAL-TYPE all
about 8 lengths behind the front pair
And Down The Stretch They Come!
RUFFIAN + KD neck and neck with
RUFFIAN just a half head in front...
ELITE MERCEDES holds steady in 3rd
DUSTY is holding onto 4th with
INTO-THE-MYSTIC IN 5TH
CRIMINAL TYPE Is being pulled up and will cross the finish line last -
we can see the Vet Ambulance waiting
and wish his connections good luck with the exam back at the barn
AT THE WIRE:
ITS RUFFIAN holding on as her small nose hits the wire just in front of KD who ran a spectacular race as well!
ELITE MERCEDES holds on for Show
INTO THE MYSTIC > Superfecta
DUSTY in 5th
CRIMINAL TYPE ran last / vanned off
PAYOUTS:
RUFFIAN >>> $58.60
K D >>>>>>> $53.80
ELITE MERCEDES > $31.50

PLEASE CHECK ALL PRICES for Accuracy
Congrats to RUFFIAN
and we bid you all
a Good Evening From Laurel Park...
And a Safe Drive Home
