Photographer and film-maker Sunhil Sippy’s latest book, Raceday, is a culmination of 10 years of photographing Mumbai’s Mahalaxmi Racecourse, over the course of which he has had a ringside view of the intimate world of horse racing and its colourful characters—from the jockeys to the punters. Here, Sippy discusses the city’s long fascination with the sport, and its place in Mumbai’s social fabric. 2016 - Jockeys in the gate waiting for starter’s orders.
