Hey cool shots!!!!
Just curious...I haven't been to the track in about 15 years.
Not sure about the etiquette there but are you allowed to use flash?

Using a flash is a definite no no! Security would bounce you right out the door. These horses are pretty high strung. I have a friend that works for the track that got me in some areas where the public aren't allowed which gave me a pretty good vantage point to take some of these shots.

Buuuhu - it's still a dream from me to find here someone visiting a race. But they are all so not hores lovers :-(.
You are really on the winner's side with your photos. Especially the third one is my favourite.
These are great shots!
