Default Blue Grass Stakes photos

Here are some of my favorite shots from Blue Grass Stakes day, along with a link to some of the rest: Blue Grass Stakes Photos

I started using a remote camera late last year, so the first one is naturally my favorite. Remotes are stupidly difficult if you want to be in the paddock, too! (Can't adjust the remote then cross the track after it's been harrowed in between races.)

Thank you everyone, much appreciated!

I'm going to shoot the Derby this year--it'll be my first time shooting and just my second time attending (first was in 2000). I'm already a mix of nerves and excitement!
