The 107th Annual Millarville Races last weekend at Millarville Racetrack.

Out of the gate, watching from the inside rail . . . .



. . . . . Woweee!!!...............



Down the straightaway . . . .



Around the turn . . . . .



Below, the historic Stock Horse Race, the way it all started in 1905 on this same site, local ranchers, farmers and acreage owners against each other for bragging rights and their name on a trophy.



She's got a big lead under threatening prairie skies . . . .



The wire-to-wire winner, her first win and the third for this particular horse. The ladies are frequent winners of this race.



It's a great family day . . . . three-legged races for the kids in the infield between pari-mutuel races.
