And Re-Training Plus Ego Therapy

The Horses Are Entering The Track
Now Let's Meet The Field


Leading Out In PP #1
K D
2011 Distorted Humor Award

This Clownish Colt has so many surprises in his repertoire that many
fans come to a race where he runs just to see WHAT he may do!

He Rarely Disappoints Them!

He can come from so far back that most
think he won't even hit the wire in the
top 5 but then he passes them all with an amazing turn of foot...

The ComeBack Kid can ALWAYS
Come Back so never count him out

His Last Race Was An Exhibition Of
Power and Determination!

IF He Can Duplicate THAT....
He Is A Major Contender Today!

He Goes Off At: 5/1

In PP #2
BALLERINA

This Very Talented Filly has proven several times that she definitely
belongs running with these champions!

She has missed a little bit of training time lately so she may not be in
top form today
and may need a few more races to resume her best stride

She Is At: 10/1


In PP #3
REAL QUIET

A Super Impressive Colt whose Past Performance record is to be admired

He rarely runs a bad race and if he does there is generally a valid
reason

He has been a little bit off form lately
but with his past record we know he
can bounce back with a good effort

He Goes Off At: 7/1


In PP #4
DUSTY
2010 HOTY + SS Champion

This Exciting Filly was a Dynamo
in 2010, but then tailed off a bit last
year due to extenuating circumstance

But she has already shown She Is BACK
this season having run some impressive races

She can Leave the Gate like A Rocket
and play Catch Me If Ya Can...

Or hang back so far then close with a
Zenyatta-Like Impression to Win

Nobody ever knows which style she
will choose on any given day...
and her huge Fan Base remains true
---- win or lose

One of our most Popular Fillies ever

She Is At: 6/1


In PP #5
TIGER DANCER
2011 Rookie Of The Year

This Fab Feline named Filly shocked
everyone last year as she broke the existing 3 year track record set by
Criminal Type in just her 3rd Start
as a Maiden

She went on thru the year to show that she is not just a One-Trick-Pony
and
can run with the best

The main issue that causes her to
start off like a bullet and finish like a blank is LACK OF FOCUS!

Railbirds & Real Birds somehow draw
her attention away from the job at hand
and usually in the Home Stretch!

Blinkers Work SOMETIMES
Depends on the size of the Flock!

She has been challenged today in
another running of the Big-Cat-Diary
Match Race Series by Ruffian

She appears to be super Perky and
Persnickity in the Post Parade which
may be a Dangerous Sign for Ruffian

She Goes Off At: 11/1

In PP #6
TY88

A Newcomer this season, This outstanding Filly is already headed towards
year end honors!

She has already won 4 Midweek-Mayhem
Races including 2 BOTS wins for the Fillies

She is still finding her best style so now and then she tosses in a poor
effort but her overall record shows a Filly who can run with the best of
em...

She Is At: 9/2


In PP #7
GotaDunQH {GDQH}

This Exciting Newcomer Filly although a Maiden has been in the money in
many races and just missed out in a photo finish by a Kitty Whisker!

Give her some time and this talented Filly will show everyone just how
Good she is!
No Doubts About It!

Her last 2 races were very promising with Show placings in both just
missing out in the final strides

She Goes Off At: 7/2


In PP #8
HORSE CRAZY GAL {HCG}
2011 Most Improved Award

This Filly's Middle Name Is HEART

She never gives up + never gives in
no matter how far back she may be

No matter what the track surface is
No matter what the weather is
No Conditions Affect Her Sheer Determination to run her best every time

She broke her Maiden last month winning a Midweek Mayhem Race & in her
last start she gave the Winner, Criminal-Type a real run for the money
in the final furlong

She is always up to the task and can never be counted out till the wire!

She Is At: 7/2


In PP #9
EL PRADO

One word to describe this Filly is CLASS!

Her Past Performance Record sparkles like a Diamond...

But due to some Health issues she was
forced to miss so much training time last year that she is still on the
Comeback Trail

She has run some good races this season but is still not at 100% fitness
level

Time and Training will surely see her
return to the Winner's Circle soon!

She Goes Off At: 20/1


In PP #10
CRIMINAL TYPE {DC}

2011 HOTY
SS CHAMPION
MM CHAMPION
BOTS CHAMPION
COLT CHAMPION
TRACK RECORD
RACE OF THE YEAR

What more can be said?

This Older Stallion went from near
Retirement to Old Friends ~
in 2010 after a Miserable Season

To be given one more chance in 2011
due to the overwhelming response by his long time devoted fans to his
connections

PLEASE DON'T RETIRE HIM YET

And so the rest is HIS-STORY
as he ran his heart out like a 3 year old
to garner almost every award given!

This season however...
He seems to be running like a Deja-Vu
of 2010 ----

Not showing the Form of last year at all and appearing to have no
interest in running at all.....

UNTIL LAST TIME In This Series
when the Ole War Horse Suddenly
found his 'Inner-Colt-45' ~ And ~
blew away the field from gate to wire

IF He Can Repeat That Effort...
WATCH OUT
The Champion Is BACK!

He Is At: 5/2


In PP #11
RUFFIAN
2011 Filly Of The Year

This Feisty Frisky Fractious Filly is always a Handful in the Paddock +
Gate so other trainers request she come out 1st or Last
to prevent a Bold Ruckus

The Cheetah (as she is affectionately called by her fans) is based on
her
'Cheetah~Pounce' from Last to First

Clawing her way past horses...
Roaring as she goes ---

But the Other Side of this scenario
is the Lazy Cheshire~Cat~In~Wonderland
who thinks she is out for a trot in the pasture for fun!

She has finished LAST in her previous 2 starts making her the longest
shot on the board today at > 30/1


We Now Turn U Over To Our
Track Announcer
JOYFUL KITTEN

Everyone Is Standing Quietly Waiting
For Ruffian who has broken away from the gate handlers and is running
back
up the track!

O No not THIS again!
Someone needs GATE LESSONS!

The Outriders have caught up to her
and leading her back but the Fiery Filly
is having none of it and being a very Naughty Girl today!

NOT a Good Sign for her fans with the
Big Cat Match Race at stake as well

NOW She Is In & We Are Ready

And Awaaaaaaaay They Go!

Down To Her Knees Right Out of the Gate....... RUFFIAN!

Almost losing her Jockey...& spotting
the field a huge amount of ground

And Its TY88 exploding like a Rocket...
right out of the gate...
---separating herself from the Field
by 10 Lengths already!

This Filly Is On FIRE!
and increasing her lead with every stride

Running Next But Far Back In
the Early Going are
GDQH ~ DUSTY ~ EL PRADO ~ KD

The Next Tier comprised of
Ballerina ~ Criminal Type ~ HCG

Farther Back
Tiger Dancer ~ Real Quiet


RUFFIAN TRAILS
Running Alone So Far Back...
in the early going,
Hope seems to be a Fantasy...


INTO THE TURN......

Someone Is FLYING Up The Rail!

YES! It's CRIMINAL TYPE
Moving Like A Champion....

He is passing horses one after another
and NOW Has PASSED TY88
to take command of the Lead

TY88 appears to have Jumped over something on the track and is losing
ground badly after gaining such a huge lead from the gate!

TY88 Still Holds on to 2nd behind CT

And there goes TIGER DANCER!

She is Roaring up the Middle of the track
with her eye on the Match Race Trophy!

DUSTY
Suddenly found her Fire and is running neck and neck with Tiger Dancer
now

KD showing Speed now along with
BALLERINA have moved up nicely

HCG Suddenly Awakened picking up the pace a little bit

GDQH...EL PRADO...REAL-QUIET
Showing Little so far...

RUFFIAN WAY FAR BACK
Little Hope For The Trophy Today

But .... HOLD ON FOLKS
Whoaaaaaaa Nellie!

THE CHEETAH HAS AWAKENED!

And There She Goes Up The Rail

RUFFIAN finding her Inner-Feline
suddenly Exploded...and is passing
horses one after another

She has passed everyone except
for TY88 + CRIMINAL TYPE!!!

SHE'S RUNNING 3rd NOW
after a Disastrous Start!

The Feline Is On Fire

They're At The TOP Of The STRETCH

ITS ALL CRIMINAL TYPE
showing the way...

Reminding everyone HOW he won
HOTY last season...

Yes He IS BACK!
Going for a REPEAT Win today

But RUFFIAN May Have Something
to Roar about that idea...

SHE HAS MOVED PAST TY88!

Now running behind CT
with her eyes on the prize...

TY88
Is Fading Badly now...
She may have hurt something when she jumped over an object on the
track... perhaps goggles or a whip?

And Someone Is moving like a Tornado
up the middle of the track...
passing horses as if they were trotting

ITS ITS ITS...... KD!

He found his MOJO coming out of the turn and has fired on all cylinders
The Comeback Kid is COMIN BACK!

DUSTY
Is running within a half length of KD

TIGER DANCER
Who started out with A Roar is
now running on a Mild Purrrrrrr

REAL QUIET
Suddenly woke up to realize he is in a race.....after a very slow
start...
and is moving up rapidly...

TY88
Looking very leg weary trying to hang on

BALLERINA
Lost ground on the turn but seems to have found her stride again now...

TIGER DANCER
Strong from the early going....
handled the turn very well.....
and then the inevitable...

FLOCK OF BIRDS in the Infield
And her Focus... went kerplunk
along with her chance for the
Big Cat Match Race Trophy!

GDQH
Nothing in the early going but
after the turn suddenly reached
down deep and found her speed
that was lacking from the gate

but probably gonna be too little
too late today for her

HCG
Right alongside of GDQH
but also not showing her best
form this day

EL PRADO
Failed to show anything from the gate
and never picked up her speed at all
She may be due for a Vet Exam later


DOWN The STRETCH They Come!

ITS ALL CRIMINAL TYPE

RUFFIAN Like The CHEETAH
Clawing Her Way Past Them All
Has Her Eyes set on the HOTY
ahead of her...

Digging Deep Finding MORE...
She is within a Length of CT

It's Turning Into A 2 Horse Race
The HOTY and the FOTY...

KD Still Charging Ahead
with a chance to ruin it all for
the front running Duo....

KD fans on their feet Screaming
knowing HE CAN.....

DUSTY
ALL OUT With One last Desperate
surge...

THE WIRE IS COMING FAST

AND ------YES!

RUFFIAN HAS PUT A
PERSNICKITY NOSE In FRONT
Of CRIMINAL TYPE!!!!

SHE IS ROARING To The Wire
CAN SHE HOLD ON?

CRIMINAL TYPE ALL OUT
KD FLYING.....

AT THE WIRE

RUFFIAN HAS DONE IT!
Last To First AND
Wins The Big Cat Match Race!
As A 30/1 Longshot Too!

1st Place & An Anchovy Supreme!
Humble Pie For Tiger Dancer!

CONGRATS RUFFIAN
Your Cheetah Ruled Today

Where's that vet, anyway. I think I have medication issues. It's hard to concentrate with a kidney stone kicking you in the flank.

[Real Quiet]

Give credit where credit is due. Congrats on your Super Saturday win Ruffian. After FIVE CONSECUTIVE Saturday wins by the colts those anchovies must have been sticking in the proverbial craw!

[Real Quiet]

From Ruffian

MEOW MEOW MEOW!
RQ:

Considering that was my THIRD SS WIN
compared to TWO by You...

My 'Craw' Enjoyed The Anchovy Supreme Without Any Problem At All!

The Sidedish of Catnip for Winning The
Big Cat Diary Match Race (Finally) Was
My Version Of 'Cherry On The Top' ~

Strange How The Fillies Lead in MM
and the Colts in SS ~
Usually Same Players

Anyone Venture A Guess WHY?
Or Is It Just The Twilight Zone Theory

MAY THE PURRR BE WITH U
