EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Newminster, 1848-1868" from the book "British Sports and Sportsmen" takes us back to a significant period in British horse racing history. The image showcases Newminster, a remarkable Thoroughbred racehorse who achieved fame by winning the prestigious St. Leger Stakes in 1851. In this monochrome portrait captured around 1911, we see Newminster tethered to a stable post while wearing his distinctive horse blanket. The photograph exudes an air of elegance and strength as the magnificent animal stands tall with poise and grace. The man standing beside him is John Scott, renowned trainer of Newminster during his racing career. Scott's expertise played a crucial role in molding this exceptional racehorse into a champion. This snapshot not only captures the essence of one of Britain's finest horses but also serves as a testament to the rich heritage of equestrian sports in nineteenth-century Britain. It symbolizes the deep connection between man and animal that has been celebrated throughout history. As we admire this vintage print today, it allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind capturing such moments on film and the legacy left by extraordinary athletes like Newminster. This image serves as a window into an era when horse racing was at its zenith, leaving an indelible mark on British sporting culture for generations to come.
