Genres: Fiction
The running of the Flamingo Stakes was an important and colorful event, and the track management was making good use of its television time before the horses went to the post.
On the screen a large party of Seminole Indians was parading within the track’s infield. Men, women and children, dressed in flowing capes and skirts, walked with stately dignity past the grandstand. Then they turned and went back up the infield to sit down upon the grass.
Alec didn’t pay much attention to them. He was an
...xious for the race to start. Now that he had told Henry he would ride Black Minx in the Derby he was more interested than ever in watching the colts he’d be up against. He turned to Henry but his friend’s eyes were closed and, like Alec, he was taking no interest in the pre-race ceremonies.
Henry had said nothing more about Alec’s decision to ride in the Derby. Nor had Alec expected him to go into it more fully. Again, it was one of those things that needed no discussion between them. Henry knew that Alec was most happy here at the farm, away from the racetrack with all its pulsating drama, excitement and glamour.
