        I smiled back at Gavin. "Thanks for the warm welcome, I'm going to need it." After leading the horses into their stalls I stumbled along to the bathroom my racing silks and helmet in tow. I slipped on the cool silky fabric and pushed the helmet down on my head in a few minutes I would be racing my first race in the big leauges. I was racing Justice first so I pulled on the green and red silk shirt and the red helmet cover slipping those on I pushed out of the stall door and then out of the bathroom. I returned to where the horses were and smiled at Gavin who looked my outfit over, he nodded and turned back to Ralph who was gesturing and speaking rapidly to the other Jockey.

        "Avery you'll be racing Justice very soon, so be prepared. Gavin is tacking up Justice so I can talk to you about the races. This will be tough competion so do not expect to win this time. If you do lose both races you will still be able to try and race another day but, if you continue losing we can't keep wasting money." he looked at me expectantly.

        "Will the other jockeys get dirty during the race?" I asked with a knot growing in my stomach.

        "They shouldn't but don't expect them to act like your friends, they need to win." Ralph carried on Gavin emerged from the stall leading Justice calmly behind him. The tall chestnut gelding whickered and thrust his head towards me. I stroked his white blaze and he tossed his head up and down. I grinned and followed Ralph and Gavin to the parade circle.  I vaulted up onto Justice's back and gripped the reigns in my hands I shivered and brushed  a strand of hair out my face. We paraded around the circle and then went to the waiting boxes. I took a deep breath and attempted to calm my shaking hands. 

        Ralph started, "Avery, what ever happens it okay. You will do fine we won't be mad if you lose. If something happens and you don't know what to do just let him run. Just let him run." 

        I nodded and squeezed Justice's side out into the sunlight, it was now or never.
