The Appeal of the Female Jockey


Horse racing has long down played its considerable sex appeal. (Besides the appeal male jockeys have for male jockey lovers.) You know this is changing if you have seen some of the recent barn shots of Chantal Sutherland in California. My own photos of Kassie Guglielmino (above) which I have posted on these pages have not been all that great. The Dope City Free Press ought to hire a fucking photographer. This shot is courtesy of the Vernon Morning Star.

Nice.

Had to that one up. You are quite right. 32 years ago, at the age of 81, Fred Astaire married jockey Robyn Smith.

Holy fuck, eh? Why hasn't somebody written a musical about that relationship?

Instead of hiring a photog, perhaps the DCFP just needs to buy a better....

...phone?

I bet that Chung fellow is a whippersnapper. Try as I might, it is even rarer for me to get a good snap from a phone than I used to get with a cumbersome Japanese camera hanging around my neck heavy as Roberto Luongo's contract in mid-August.
