Newton Abbot Races


August 2009

What a difference a week can make. Last Tuesday the rain was coming down in torrents and today we had the most beautiful sunshine for the entire race meet.
It was bliss to have the freedom to photograph without being restricted by wet weather gear. Long may it continue.

The racing was pretty good too. We had full numbers in most of the races so lots of tight finishes and full frames of horses to capture.

The jockey Marcus Foley retired from racing here today, after the presentation his fellow jockeys decided he looked a bit hot and gave him a dunking!

Bye for now_F
