Caution: Dangerous Curves

 

Don’t tell her jock—but Diva likes to add an extra turn, just for fun….

CAPTION:  DIVA (horse): “Ain’t that sad—this one still getting dizzy on a two-turn mile?”

 

One for the Road

 

Looks like the only call The Diva might be getting is ‘last call’….

CAPTION:  FILEP (jockey): “Seriously, this better not result in a ‘late scratch’, Diva….” PATRON (drunk at bar): “Hey dollface, your jockey is here—finish your appletini because it’s post time and you all are the key in my exacta….” DIVA (horse): “—my jockey??? WHOOPS—check please!!!”

 

Obstacles

 

To be successful, communication is key….

CAPTION:  DIVA (horse): “WHOA! Waitaminute—when you said ‘we’d face obstacles’, I thought you meant more like ‘problems in our relationship’….”

 

Moonlighting

Sometimes a jockey’s gotta do what a jockey’s gotta do to make ends meet….

CAPTION:  DIVA (horse): “So this is how I find you—MOONLIGHTING? When you said our win percentage was low, I never thought it’d come to this!”  Filep (jockey): “…could this wait until I’m on break?”

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

THE DIVA can not contain her excitement—racehorses will be celebrating birthdays the world over! (oh, and Happy New Year to you human folk, too…)

Very best wishes,
TEAM DIVA, OFF THE PACE
and the A.E. Sabo Studio

CAPTION:  DIVA (horse): “Seriously, after that last weigh-in, you need these carrots more then I do‘        

 

Going for broke, TEAM DIVA style

They call it “Gettin’ TEAM DIVAED”—racing terminology for when you can never catch a break going for broke…

CAPTION:  How long-shot TEAM DIVA goes for broke… DIVA (horse): “WOW—broke out on top!’   FILEP (jockey): “WOW—out broke again!”
