EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Racing at Windsor" we are transported back to the vibrant world of horse racing in the 1950s. The legendary jockey Lester Piggott, known for his exceptional skills and fearless riding style, can be seen astride the magnificent thoroughbred Copernic as they thunder towards a thrilling finish. Taken on June 2nd, 1955, at the prestigious Royal Windsor Racecourse in Berkshire, this snapshot captures a pivotal moment during the intense 3:30 race. With determination etched on his face and reins tightly gripped in his hands, Piggott expertly guides Copernic through a field of fierce competitors. Despite facing stiff competition from other seasoned jockeys and their powerful horses, Piggott's partnership with Copernic proves formidable as they gallop into an impressive third place. The sheer speed and grace displayed by both horse and rider is awe-inspiring. This photograph not only celebrates the thrill of horseracing but also pays homage to an era when sportsmanship was revered above all else. It serves as a testament to Dennis Rowe's keen eye for capturing timeless moments that continue to captivate us decades later. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of the enduring allure of equestrian sports and how they have woven themselves into our cultural fabric throughout history.
