Unexpected

I love unexpected wins.  And I love when the jockey's expression shows how unexpected this sudden, unchallenged lead is...even to him.  I took this shot right after he was done checking under his arm for anyone flying up on his outside. It was all clear so he gave a bit of a whoop and a smile right before the wire.

A couple of horseracing shots before I switch over to hockey and winter sports again.
