Racing Photos

Below are selected photos I have taken over the years plus links to other pages with lots of photos I have taken at various races or places like the Kentucky Horse Park. Click on the small pictures to see a larger version


Bayakoa at Oaklawn Park in 1990 just prior to the Apple Blossom Handicap which she had won the year before. Unfortunately she ran into Gorgeous this year and was second. Here is another view.

Another great Argentine mare for McAnally, Paseana. This is from the 1993 Apple Blossom Handicap which she won in great style.

Best Pal in the post parade for the 1993 Oaklawn Handicap. He had won the previous year but made his run too late and was third this time.


Here is the horse who won, Jovial. He looked so splendid in the post parade that one look and you knew he was the winner.

1992 Kentucky Derby winner Lil E. Tee in the post parade for the 1993 Oaklawn Handicap where he was second.

The Citation statue at Hialeah Park.

The winning move from the 1993 Arkansas Derby by long-shot bomb Rockamundo, $218 win payoff!

Cigar leaving the paddock on his way to defeat in the 1996 Pacific Classic. A very impressive looking horse who obviously enjoyed showing off for his public.

Breeders Cup Sprint champ Lit de Justice who was a great sprinter when his mind was on business.

Long-shot winner of the 1996 Breeders Cup Classic Alphabet Soup, a gorgeous gray.
