Chief Yeoman goes ahead to win.

(I wonder what the woman I heard exclaim by the parade ring "Number 5 looks like a donkey!" thought when she saw him win!) No, it wasn't me who said it.

More to come....

Thanks, Sue. Some good ones there of the Herecomes/Massini's finish.

I see Optimus Maximus sweated up rather badly.
 
I remember when Sue first started posting her photos a couple of years back. I have to agree - she has really got to grips with these racing photos now! I paricularly love the one of Eric's Charm and AP! Great stuff, Sue and thanks for sharing them with us! You must have been frozen taking these!
 
Thanks for the comments guys, always helps to see how other people interpret them and what I can do to improve. Changed cameras from a SLR to DSLR, which makes things a lot easier, with regards to learning "on the spot" as it were. I just need to grow a bit, 5'2" is not good where rails are involved!:o) Yes Kathy, it was very cold, but worth it!
