LOL! Vet school! That's great! I had wanted to go to vet school too, then I found out HOW MUCH school was involved. So I changed my mind. I hated school. :)
Yeah, racing down to the paddock for photos was always fun. At the Meadowlands, I used to be in the race paddock a lot during the cold months, so it was a 1/8 of a mile jog to get to the winner's circle on time for a photo. Some tracks have a golf cart for the winning trainer and groom. In the summer months we raced out of the front paddock. That was easy. Every once in a while, if I wasn't racing, I'd run down from the Press box at the top of the Grandstand to the paddock for a picture with a friend's horse. But usually, if I wasn't racing the horse, then I'd watch from the front paddock so I'd be there already. :) Watching a race from the top lost a lot of appeal, as I like to hear them go by and feel the ground shake. The front paddock is a crazy place to be during a race.
