Despite a chest cold, I'm going up to shoot.

Can't guarantee I will be up in time for the Oaks or Distaff, so prob only pics of the guys.

I LOVE that the Millions are from 11:45 - 1:45. I plan on showing up early, enjoying the stakes, and then going home. It's going to be awesome.

Boooo... that means getting up at like 9 :(

I assume they are earlier so the people at gulfstream don't have to stay late waiting.

I guess we will have more light to shoot... cause lately all the big stakes have been in the shade.

I wish I could fly out to go to some of the bigger tracks. I have Indiana Downs next door and Hoosier Park a short distance away but Id love to see some of those bigger races. I LOVED getting to go to the Breeders Cup this year!

Oh man I'm super, super excited for the races. There's a bunch of horses running that I follow, and of course it's Lava time :D.

Ian, the first stakes isn't till 12:15, so that's a bit less pressure to be there early. And yes, the stakes are earlier because of Gulftream. They have them timed so that they can show the Gulfstream races inbetween Anitas, so we'll get to see all the action :)

I was really excited to go, but a water issue with my upstairs neighbor means I have to be home all day as they are going to rip out my drywall and carpet. <_<

Go Lava Man! I will be watching on tv or have it record so I can watch later.

I'm watching NBC, and just say Silver Wagon go by in the post parade, what a beauty! He's got that stud jaw going on too :)
