Cool stuff! I love the use of color. Vibrant, as it should be for such great moments.

That 5 horse in the first print kinda looks like Lucky Alexander … winded and being overtaken by multiple runners near the end of a classic 10f contest. lol

I think that was a subconscious error on my part, I had just been making fun of people who call her by the masculine version of her name - oh no, I'm one of them!

Looks like the horses are walking. Compare it to the Zenyatta picture.

Well, Lucky was moving pretty slowly near the finish of that 9f contest, jms62.

She was lucky there were no legit G1-caliber runners around that day…
