Overview
Captivating snapshots of the people, places, and animals of horse racing culture.
Eric Simon’s vibrant photography documents decades of racetrack culture across the country—from the colorful jockey silks to the thunder of hooves, from backside workers to bettors. Accompanying essays explore a day at the track and examine the quirks of tracks large and small, famous and lesser known.
Long a part of American culture, horse racing today is at a crossroads. Racetracks are closing or adding casinos, and attendance is flagging, especially among younger generations, though some tracks are finding ways to nurture their communities and remain viable entertainment hubs. Time will tell what happens to horse racing in the years to come. Whether the sport finds its footing or dwindles further, Horse Tracks offers an insider’s view of its highs and lows across the past four decades.
