They were both entirely uninjured - bloodhorse.com Last years Eclipse winner was a picture of Julian Leparoux hanging on for dear life to the head of a horse. Afleet Alex picture? Didn't show anything, really, the impact was as we know how it turned out. I like this picture, although I understand your comments. It's hard to catch everything in the air! Opportunity knocks.

I'm going to go see if I can find the other Eclipse candidate photos somewhere.

Edit: google images: eclipse award photography shows most of them
