A day at the races…

The beautiful art deco clubhouse, sporting a lovely new coat of paint. There is no sporting venue like this one.

Old art deco style signage.

He looks…concerned.

I got a Lava Man poster signed by Corey Nakatani (his jockey) and trainer (Doug O’Niell). Lava Man had a glorious Hall of Fame career, then retired to work in his trainer’s barn coaching the young’uns in the proper behavior. He was so effective in communicating with his charges, that he did the job of 2 or 3 people. Unbelievably cool horse.

I love this statue of Zenyatta. She was (and is) magical.

My carefully considered choice. Yes, he was the favorite. Don’t judge me. I made enough money to not dip into my own wallet until the very end of the day.

Thank you, Asada Fries, for your outstanding effort.

I love The Great Race Place!

Is there a more beautiful sports venue in the world?
