Love it! You've captured the excitement of the track quite nicely. I went to Woodbine about 5 years ago with a friend; her company was having a corporate day there. It was nice (except the weather was bad: cold and rainy). I took a wrong turn and ended up downstairs where the hardcore gamblers are.
