PHOTO ESSAY: Racing at Hawthorne Part 2

Saturday dawned warmer at Hawthorne, but warmer is a relative term when you’re talking winter in Chicago.  Temperatures still hovered below freezing but there was less of a wind chill to deal with – unless you were piloting a 35 mph equine athlete around the track!
