Artist’s Interpretation:  The imagery is inspired by my love of horseracing and the excitement that begins when the trumpeter begins playing the “Call to Post” in his bright red jacket and derby hat.  The scene depicts the joy of seeing beautiful thoroughbreds and their jockeys perched on their backs in their brightly colored silks walking to the gates to begin their dash to cross the finish line.
