    Right before the race, when Vale was acting up, this fine young rider looked motionless and TERRIFIED. I was delighted that he won, no jaded reaction from this guy. What a background- riding camels since age 6. How great our country is, that every flag is beautiful on BC days, to be waved and displayed with pride. Look forward to seeing more at Carnival.
