Weighing out for the Cartoon Stakes at Ascot: A Glimpse into the Colorful World of Horse Racing's Elite in 1927 This photo print, taken at the prestigious Royal Ascot in 1927, offers a humorous and intriguing glimpse into the world of horse racing's elite. The scene is set at the weighing room, where jockeys and their prominent supporters prepare for the races. Among the distinguished gentlemen gathered around, we find Sir George Bullough, Lord Lonsdale, the Aga Khan, Sir Abe Bailey, Lord Glanely, and Col Sofer Whitburn. Each of these individuals had established a reputation for "showing up" at the Royal meeting, adding an air of excitement and anticipation to the event. In the foreground, jockeys Steve Donoghue, C. Smirke, E.C. Elliott, T. Weston, Joe Childs, Jack Leach, J. Thwaites, and Micky Beary take their seats in the weighing chair, ready to be weighed before the race. Their expressions range from focused determination to lighthearted amusement, reflecting the unique blend of serious competition and camaraderie that defines the sport of horse racing. The cartoonish caricatures of these notable figures and jockeys add an extra layer of charm and whimsy to this historic moment. The playful depictions capture the essence of the Royal Ascot experience, where tradition, elegance, and a touch of humor come together to create an unforgettable event. This image, with its rich history and lively energy, invites us to step back in time and experience the magic of the Royal Ascot in 1927.
