Watching the pass

Grove City, Ohio view map

Jockey Raina Paucar, aboard Cary's Our Man, watches Heart Flash pass on the outside as Paucar changes the whip from her left hand to her right hand in an attempt to rally her fading horse. Cary's Our Man led until the middle of the stretch (photo, below) of the five-and-a-half furlong eighth race at Beulah Park near Columbus, Ohio, but faded to finish sixth.

Hi Pat. Good clean racing image with very fine details including a little catch light in the horse's eye. Excellent narrow dof makes the scene pop! Great action and a fine journalistic description to go with the photo. All my best, Michael.
