great! I know these horses are traveling at light speed but a little sharper focus on them may have added to this.

Would have like to seen a little faster shutterspeed to really stop the motion

Good action capture. It looks a bit oversharpened to me as there seems to be an odd grainy look in the sand of the track and the grass. Compositionally, maybe a tighter crop so that the horses weren't in the center of the frame would make it a bit stronger. That might make it feel like there was more room on the right for them to "run into."

This is the second "seabiscuit" shot I've seen so far, and is the better of the two. Good action and framing.
