A FABULOUS ‘FOUR’ AND STILL FIT AS A FILLY!

The Diva has truly come into her own these past four years…
~
And as TEAM DIVA continues to entertain racing fans worldwide, OFF THE PACE will also continue to provide artworks for charities supporting retired equines, injured jockeys, and racetrack Chaplaincies nationwide. Our wish is that 2015 will be full of new opportunities for our favorite race-filly and her jock to give back to their community, as well as to conquer new ground as horse racing’s premier comic!
~
A special ‘Thank You’ to our growing list of clients: Gallop Magazine—the international ‘feel-good’ racing publication, Horse Breeder Direct, Jockeys and Jeans, Michael W. Compton, My Racing Heart, LLC, Kentucky Race Track Chaplaincy, NY Race Track Chaplaincy, The Tampa Bay Downs Handicapper, The Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund, and Total Horse Channel.

Stick It

The Diva ain’t got no patience for no heavy hand on the stick…

CAPTION: Valet: “No Miss, I don’t believe I’ve seen that no-good, whipping jockey of yours…“

 

*Rookie Mistake

 

Maybe it should be called the ‘watch-where-you’re walking ring’…. (No worries, Filep—there’s good reason no one else ever wants to ride THE DIVA.)

CAPTION: Diva (horse): “Listen up, BUG BOY. I get you’re new to racing—but MY EYES ARE UP HERE! ”

 

 

Belmont 2014 Aftermath

 

Another crown opportunity has slipped through time’s hands, leaving again an empty year for this championship’s road less traveled…

Yeah, ummm, now that the pomp and circumstance is out of the way—whazup with that smack during the final minutes of our nationally televised broadcast?

CAPTION: Mr. Coburn, (man in hat) “Cowards!!!” Jerry Bailey: “Hey! Don’t critique my critique of Victor’s ride! How many Belmonts have you rode in, MOSS?” Randy Moss: “Oh yeah? Wanna try standing when you ask me that, BAILEY?” Tonalist (the horse): “Hey. I’m Tonalist… I won the Belmont Stakes. …if anybody cares…”

 

RULES OF A RACING DIVA!

 

Coming soon to TOTAL HORSE CHANNEL: A new cartoon series featuring our very own DIVA CHALKCHASER!

“Need a fresh angle on racing? Enjoy the unique and slightly skewed commentary of DIVA CHALKCHASER, the better/prettier/sassier half of TEAM DIVA at OFF THE PACE. Diva now offers her years of perpetual maiden expertise to her adoring public and to all future up-and-coming filly ‘Divas’ in training. Now anyone can learn to underachieve every racing industry standard by simply following the RULES OF A RACING DIVA.”

Oppan Gangnam Style

 

Diva’s tried racing as a front runner and as a closer, maybe Gangnam is more her style…

OFF THE PACE SKETCHES: Misfit ideas and nonsensical gags not worth the trouble inking, but fun enough to add color to a pencil sketch for show...
