8 June 2014 ~ Golden Gate Fields

Listening to: Mexico City Girls ~ Fade


With all of the hype over California Chrome yesterday at the Belmont Stakes, I motivated myself to go to Golden Gate Fields to see some horse racing.

A great view of the field and of Berkeley hills.

Not as impressive as Churchill Downs in Louisville, but a nice race course none-the-less.

Obviously California Chrome didn't win. I wasn't a big winner either, but at least came home with more than when I arrived.

I went down to the paddock before one of the races to get close-up view of the horses.

I bet on #2 to win.

And I bet on #5 to show.

Here I am waiting for the race.

And #5 came in a winner.

I recorded the action of the race.
