LS dirt track with 8 horses racing down, crowd of spectators looking on -- not large, but such as might appear at a state fair or horse show or rodeo. A bizarre race is in progress; the riders, all women, stop, dismount and try to put on white skirts that lie neatly folded on the ground. In contrast to their blue jeans and Western-style shirts, these are an impediment, as we see the women struggle to put the clothes on and remount. One woman is hopelessly stuck with the skirt (or petticoat) down around her ankles and cannot get back on her horse
