Cheltenham Festival Photographs

[uncle goober]

At some point over the next few days I may have time to post up my Cheltenham photographs. I am still working on them at the moment, but if anyone has any special requests get them in now and I will try to include them, so long as it involves horses on the track!

Thanks for sharing UG. Excellent as always!!

Thanks for sharing, Uncle Goober. Great pictures.

Smashing shot of Thyne Again - I'm a sucker for a flashy chestnut. Hope you don't mind, I've taken a copy of that for my desktop at work to remind me there is life outside Orthopaedics!

Thanks again.
