When you've got horses in your blood, that's where the stay. In the summer years ago, I visited Saratoga Racetrack in New York. I spent an amazing day around the horses, watching the paddocks as they saddled up, heading for the Grand Stand and getting caught up in the finish.

I loved this horse and jockey. They were so focused, so in tuned - what a sight to behold. Later, I watched them receive their well deserved awards.
