A Day At The Races With Bob Harrow

 Spent a day at the races with my friend Dave. This was a beautiful racetrack and the scenery all around was magnificent.

At the starting gates and another view of the scenery around the track. The Field had 14 runners and my friend was lucky as there was

a scratching the night before so as he was first emergency his horse StormTracker got to race 

Rounding the bend for home 300 meters to go. Track was very heavy so at this point the jockey went to the center of the track for firmer footing.

He was the shortest man on the track. Roly the jockey in the orange polka dots left the tallest and proudest man on the track as he won

his next race to make it 3 in a row 

Storm Tracker taking the lead with less than 50 meters to go. You could here my mate Dave yelling and he was so excited after just

10 weeks of getting his trainers license he had his first winner.

Coming back to the winners circle and the jockey Roly Saxton is a very happy man as this was his 2nd winner in a row and any one who

backed the jockey would have a very good day 

Ribbon presentation a proud moment for my mate

Getting ready for his interview he was quite amazed by it all.
