Nov 2013
an inquiry has been called
into the Mungindi Cup
the horse that won it
had his galloping speed hurried up

evidently the horse had been administered
some sort of enhancement
which assured that he ran
with better advancement

the stewards of the racing club
were rather suspicious
as the horse's racing ability
was far too auspicious

the police are looking into
this strange state of affairs
it wasn't possible for the old nag
to run with such dashing flair

in our region horse racing
has been dealt a shocking blow
and it's fine reputation
has sunken very low

once the inquiries findings
are published in the newspapers
we'll all be informed
of the race horse owner's capers
