“Del Mar at 75: Where the Turf Meets the Surf” was the brainchild of photographer Barry Myers of Bethesda, Md., who admits to attending a horse race only once before he started on the project. When he shared the idea with his cousin Jay Privman of Encinitas — the national correspondent for the Daily Racing Form who is decidedly better informed on thoroughbred racing – the plan started to gel. While there is a chapter on the storied history that serves as an introduction and a chapter on “ Del Mar’s Best Ever,” the emotional ride of the book is from early morning to evening as the jockeys and staff do their part and the crowds react and enjoy all the sideline activities. The book includes many of the landmark Del Mar shots – ladies in their hats on opening day, people poring over racing forms, lines at the betting windows, the Party in the Paddock.
