look at Tamron 90mm f2.8 i have been very happy with mine.
If you want to do more moving subjects the longer the focal distance the better. I will say the tamron can hunt a bit for focus at times but the optics are nice and sharp, most reviews put it as good as the nikon. Value for money IMHO you cant go wrong, It also makes a great portraite lense. I have a few pic on flicker if you would like to have a look. Cheers Jo
