An obligatory racing shot from turn one. This is the Kentucky Oaks, the sister race of the Derby that is run on Friday. It’s for three-year old fillies. The Derby is the big one, drawing upwards of 160,000 spectators, but the Oaks is big as well. This year there were over 110,000 in attendance. Louisville schools are even closed on Oaks day. For this shot, I was kneeling next to the outside rail on the track with a 300mm–not really a long enough lens for this shot, so I cropped it.
