Capture The Feeling

Love for the sport shines through in annual Photo Contest

The 2017 Hoof Beats Photo Contest received 334 entries from June to October, upon which more than 5,000 votes were cast. Each year we see photos come in from across the globe capturing harness racing in so many different ways. We receive photos that show the sport’s beautiful moments and various personalities from county fairs to racing’s biggest stages and even showcasing Standardbreds in their post-racing careers. We enjoy them all.

Here we present the top three winners in each category – Fan Photo, Professional Photo and Photo Illustration – as well as a few that our editors felt were too good not to print. Thank you to all who entered and to all who voted. We can’t wait to see what you capture next year.
