Leaving the gate

Grove City, Ohio view map

Wildman Joey, with jockey Jose Luis Calo aboard, leaves the gate at the start of the mile-and-70-yard fourth race
at Beulah Park near Columbus, Ohio. Calo guided Wildman Joey to the lead in the stretch (photo below) and held
on for the win. Additional horse racing images are in my Sports gallery.

The detail is amazing. You really captured the action, too.

Sharp, dramatic and great action. Beautiful timing on the break from the gate. Wildman Joey flares his nostrils so much they look like jet intakes.
Voted.
