A day at the races


I was lucky enough to be in Wellington for a meet at Trentham  race course , where ever I travel I try to catch a local race day, you always get to see a slice of life.

 Trentham is set in the picturesque Hutt Valley and the weather was co-operating.


 The girls were showing off their assets,


 and the gents looked rather natty too.


I always have a little flutter, but alas, the gods were not with me until the  last race when I managed to place. 

Just about (but not quite) paid for the day.


 
Thank you Sam.
