Hot day at the track. I heard two jockey's complaining about there only being 8 races instead of 10, but they didn't have enough interest. I am surprised that more than half of the people I talk to don't even know that there is horse racing in this state. Free parking and $3-$5.
'Jack': He is 'short on the back and long in the legs'. The track was fast, photo finish, no back to back for Jack, but leading most of the way he didn't need a shower after.
This is 'Sid', I believe he is still coming back from a foot injury, a bone spur in his front leg.
This is 'Fly', the most gentle horse I have been around. She was caught in a flood two years ago and lost her foal and her brother, and she craves attention. She licks like a dog, and if you get close she pulls you close to her, whether it's with her head over your shoulder or her biting your shirt tail, she will get her hug. It is neat to see such large animals have such interesting personalities.
