Ask Ashton..It's all about the camera!!

I thought the 2009 race was way more exciting, Zenyatta hung like a cheap claimer at Penn

I was thinking a rave, or maybe a stripper party...?

And these two photos are another reaosn why this race should be ran during daylight... neither photo is very compelling.

I thought it was an awesome experience being there for this race, with the sun setting, the lights-on and Blame holding on.

But I'm sure they'll consider whether or not the race photos are compelling enough when they determine next year's post time.

Probably some Derby Trailers smoking killer weed and looking at their blacklight pictures of Elvis.

Photo one showcases the venue. Photo two showcases the horses. Where's my brownie reflex? I like number one because it looks like Zenyatta has a shot at winning.

I'll get Dickstein's Unrivaled Belle Distaff shot posted... You may think differently after seeing that one. The night backdrop works really well in it.

Here's a photo (below) in today's bloodhorse.com . It is credited to Skip Dickstein . Can anyone tell me how he can be in two different places at one time ? You can see the angle of the photo is from across the track from that of the Eclipse submission one .
