Its hard to describe the scene out at the horse racing venue, this is definitely not the Kentucky Derby or Royal Ascot.

Here are a few of the child jockeys heading to the start of the race. Note the lack of safety gear - some of the smaller children, barely out of diapers, have their feet tied to the stirrups so they won’t fall off.
