It's a beautiful day for the race
Stooge Hand is the favorite today
Assault is in there
Dog Biscuit is 3 to 1
Safety Pin has been scratched
Ya ya
And at 20 to 1 ... Beetlebomb

Now the horses are approaching the starting gate
And there they go!!

And it's Stooge Hand going to the front
Cabbage is second on the rail
Beautiful Linda is third by a length
And ... Beetlebomb

Around the first turn
Stooge Hand is still in front
Cabbage is second by a head
Cabbage by a head
Beautiful Linda is third
And ... Beetlebomb

Into the back stretch
Dog Biscuit is now leading the pack
Lady Evelyn is second, very close
Banana is coming up through the bunch
Banana coming up through the bunch
And ... Beetlebomb

At the half
Stooge Hand still out in front
Apartment House is second with plenty of room
Assault is passing Battery
Assault and Battery
Notary Sojac is fourth
And in last place by 10 lengths
I believe it is, yes it is ...
Beetlebomb

Around the turn heading for home
It's Stooge Hand and Dog Biscuit
And Girdle in the stretch
Flying Sylvester is third
And Mother-In-Law nagging in the rear
Oh oh oh

And now they come down to the wire
And it's number one
And now number two
And it's very close
There'll need to be a photo finish
Or an oil painting
And now Louis leads with a left
And Louis is in there slugging
And it's a battle
And now they're tearing hair
There's hair all over the ring
There's hair all over the place
I don't know whose hair it is, ah ah
It's mine

And there goes the winner ...

Any Given Saturday, followed by a Storm In May, and rounding it out Summer Doldrums.  Sounds too much like a weather forcast not to be the winning ticket.

[litl rooster]

Ohhh, ohhhh, I just 'membered an old M.A.S.H. show, I want to pick "Bounching Betty."

  I seen they got Richard Petty in the winners circle.....Good to see the "King" there again

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Were any of the horses you had anything to do with in there, lR?..........Buck

[Trinity]

Hey, litl rooster... can I borrow ten dollars?

[litl rooster]

 Buck,no unfortunatly...Many of the ones running have been sired the same way many of ours have.  We have a filly Cowtown Kid related to Cowtown Cat.  This years winner was sired by an Irish Horse"Streetcity" we have nothing by him.  I'd to have to go back over the field but I recognized 5 or 6 that were half sibling by sire.


  Sorry Trinity, I shot yesterday, I'm now 140 in the hole.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Hey Trinity, I like the town sign, where is it located?  In Myopia County I'll bet!

Next time I'll stop the car and get out.  I thought it turned out alright but realized otherwise when I got home.

I'll be passing by again next weekend. 



Where is it located?  Trinity, NC, of course.   Half way twixt Huntersville and Greensboro.

Here's another one I took a while back:
