Tailfeathers was hot on Quickhooves' tail, however. He tried to distract the older Hippogriff with his squawking as he kept pace with the faster, less tired creature, but as they approached the first turn he fell in step behind Talonfingers. Talonfingers eyed the chestnut hippogriff beside him and stretched his long neck out, determined to finish in a better position than he had last round.

Winnerwings made up the rear, edging just slightly ahead of even Tailfeathers as they all rounded the bend. She was kind of off in her own world though she was aware that Tailfeathers seemed to be losing a few.... tailfeathers as he fell farther and farther behind. Hmmph. Served him right for winning the last round instead of letting the lady win.

Quickhooves continued at the head of the pack, rounding the turn and thundering forward toward the finish line. He crossed it far ahead of the other hippogriffs, with Talonfingers coming in second, Winngerwings taking third, and Tailfeathers falling all the way to fourth.

Williamson applauded along with the students and beamed at Quickhooves. He again led the hippogriffs over to the water trough and left them there to drink while he took care of the gambling business.

"All right then, good job to all our competitors! And let's see here..... Ira wins 4 tokens, Sierra Greingoth wins a whopping 8 tokens, and Jezzebelle wins 4 tokens too. Congratulations to all! I'll be taking bets for our last and final round now!"
