Horse racing takes center stage this weekend and with that, we should consider the jockeys. Photographer Elena Dorfman has and what she came up with puts those athletes in a new perspective. A naked one, in fact. She wanted to show their athleticism in a new exhibit set to open this summer at Louisville’s 21c Museum. In case you won’t make it to Kentucky to see it, enjoy the video on her site with three of the jockeys — including Hector Romero (photo) — baring, well, everything.The Derby just got a lot more interesting for me.

It’s high time that jockeys get discovered this way! Some of them are gorgeous, like Chantal Sutherland and Gary Stevens and Joe Talamo. And all of them are amazing athletes.
