1947 AP Wire Photo with a separate caption dated May 28 in Westbury, Long Island, New York, showing a nighttime harness racing finish at Roosevelt Raceway. The caption calls the scene 'Flying Hoofs,' with twelve hooves airborne in the second race, a one-mile Classified Pace. Abbe Cheer (5), driven by J. Jordan, won in 2:13⅕. Miss Linn Direct (3), driven by S. Russell, placed second, and Jimmy Brainerd (4), driven by J. Barton, finished third. The low-angle view captures the horses, drivers and sulkies against a dark background. Measures 8¼ x 6½ inches. Yellowed tape remains on the corners. Light surface scuffs, fine scratches, small spots and edge wear are visible, with emulsion loss at the bottom right corner. From the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper.
