Good Evening and Welcome To
CHARLES TOWN Racetrack
Our Feature Tonight:
THE RUFFARAMA
Tonite being held at 1 1/4 Miles
We've had Several Scratches due to the International Airport--Volcanic Ash Problem that has caused a Chain Reaction of cancellations globally
This has left us with a Field of 7
The Horses are entering the track for the Post Parade
Leading them on in PP #1
REAL QUIET
A Talented Stallion who has not been consistent this year and has struggled with various track conditions
He ran an outstanding race 2 starts ago but then faltered in his last time out
He is very capable of running a dynamic race but his fans never know when that might be
He goes off at: 10/1
In Gate #2
DUSTY
A Super-Sonic Filly who fights for every placing in every race!
She is tenacious nearing the wire which she proved in her last start as she JUST
WON by A Nostril Flare!
She Can Take The Early Lead and play Catch-Me-If-U-Can
Or
Hang back way off the leaders and close like an Express Train all the way to the win ~ OR ~ Photo Finish
She is the Favorite today: 5/2
In PP #3
INTO-THE-MYSTIC
A very Game Filly who is a threat in any race she runs, even when it appears she can never close fast enough to catch the leaders >> She Does!
Her last race was a close Photo for Win
in which she came up just Short by a nose She goes off at: 4/1
In Gate #4
DUSTINO
A Stallion who has shown Determination and Versatility in his last 2 Races and is a Force to be dealt with every time he runs
He Just lost the Place Spot in a super tight photo finish last time out by a nose
He leaves at: 7/2
In PP #5
EL PRADO
A Super Classy Filly who usually is either in the Winner's Circle Or in a very close Photo Finish
Her last 2 Races were a Win and a 2nd
She rarely is out of the money
She goes off at: 3/1
In Gate #6
CRIMINAL TYPE
An Older Stallion who has his moments of Brilliance making his fans remember his Outstanding Style of Last Year
He showed vast improvement in his last race at a shorter distance than tonight's event at 1 1/4 M
So its a question mark whether the Longer Distance will prove to be tiring for him or not
He will leave at: 12/1
In PP #7
RUFFIAN
A Feisty Filly whose Shenanigans in the Post Parade as she Dances her way to the starting gate, often take their toll when the Real Running begins!
Her last 2 Starts have been very lack luster but she has been known to bounce like a red rubber ball and is capable of surprising her fans with a Win
Even her connections never know which way it will go on any given day!
She was very Fractious in the Post Parade and may have left her best energy in the Gate!
She leaves at: 15/1
We Now Turn U Over To
Our Track Announcer
PAGAN CAT
Thank you Trevor
The Horses are standing quietly
waiting for the last one to enter the gate, which is proving to be a problem
DUSTY is fighting entering the gate with great determination and aggression causing the Jockey to get off and then remount
She seemed a bit distracted in the Post Parade as well...
All are ready now
And... Awaaaaaaay They Go!
Like a NASA ROCKET....
INTO-THE-MYSTIC has shot out of the gate leaving the rest of the field at least 7 Lengths behind her!
DUSTINO has found his stride and is moving up but is still way behind the Leader who shocked everyone with the way she Exploded right out of the gate!
REAL QUIET is another 2 Lengths back
EL-PRADO ~
CRIMINAL-TYPE
RUFFIAN
Way back of the front running 3
DUSTY stumbled badly right out of the gate almost losing her jockey who luckily managed to just hang on ~ but lost his whip in the effort and now trails by 10 Lengths
Heading into the Clubhouse turn
INTO-THE-MYSTIC looking Super-Strong in the Lead and they will need Wings to catch this Filly today!
DUSTINO very aggressive in 2nd...
REAL QUIET has gained ground and
has moved up into 3rd
DUSTY just found a new gear and is weaving her way thru traffic inthe middle of the track to just within a Length of RQ
EL PRADO is next another length back
CRIMINAL TYPE has nothing left
RUFFIAN now trails and never fired at all
And Down The Stretch They Come!
Its ALL INTO-THE-MYSTIC as Strong as she was Leaving the Gate flying to the wire
DUSTINO with everything he's got
still strong in 2nd...
Grit and Determination -
But he's running out of ground...
REAL QUIET with a Powerful Move on the
rail to come within a half-length of Dustino
And... At The Wire...
