Race/Win Photos

Postby Shannon » Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:22 pm

How long do most tracks keep photos on file? Is there any way to find pics of certain races other then win pics?

I've talked to the photographer in Northern CA, and they told me they still have every photo. You have to call the track and ask for the photogrpher, because everybody's got a different price. Be sure to have as much info as possible: Name of the horse, date of the race, and race number. I doubt if any of them can search their own records on name alone. You can get the date and race number info by running a past performance record on brisnet or equineline.
