Race Day

Loaded in the starting gate
Who will win nobody knows
The buzzer sounds
And off they go 
Thundering down the track
Jockey's on thier back 
Riding with adrenaline
Making thier way around the bend 
To the home stretch
Thier hoofs thundering like a storm 
Down the path to victory
First, second, and third 
Winning by a nose 
The amazing thrill of race day
