#232 Jockey on Board
Oil Painting/ Gallery Wrapped Canvas

We're number one!
First place, these jockeys are the unsung heroes of racing.
They do it for the love of riding.
They starve themselves to 114 pounds.
They seriously train 6 days a week for 4-6 hours daily.
They are super athletes in a tenuous situation.

Mere mosquito-sized athletes driving over 1,100 pounds
of unpredictable horse,
mind you, driving them... through a charging,
ever shifting maize
of 12-15 other equally unpredictable horses
all headed for "home."

Kinda takes your breath away!
