Yea we had great access, right by the rail shooting through the slats with all the dust and dirt spraying, I was warned and did put a filter on the lens for protection. I used the 70-200 for most shots, but we were so close I had to be at the 70 end most of the time. I also had my 10-22 on my old XSi to take the close pictures going around the barrel as I couldn't have been any more than 10 meters from it. I did get a whole face full of dirt from one horse. The one picture you are referring to I really liked the shot of the riders face and expression.
