Starting strides

Grove City, Ohio view map

Wilgo (5, at left), ridden by Edgar Paucar, is off balance while Skip's Signal (3, at right), ridden by
Cesar Camaque, and Gitalong Jim (4), ridden by Juri Yaranga, bump as the horses leave the
starting gate for the first race at Beulah Park near Columbus, Ohio. Only Wilgo could finish
in the money in the mile-and-a-sixteenth race, taking third.

Great action picture, the short exposure time freezes the tense emotion of the moment.
