EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s, a time when football and horse racing were intertwined in the lives of Leeds United players Mick Bates, Peter Lorimer, and Mick Jones. The image captures these legendary footballers at Wetherby races alongside their prized racehorse Zemanda. With an air of excitement and anticipation, the trio stands proudly beside their equine companion. The camaraderie between Bates, Lorimer, and Jones is evident as they share a moment away from the football pitch. Their partnership with Eddie Gray and Teddy Yorath in owning Zemanda showcases not only their love for sport but also their shared passion for horseracing. It is clear that these athletes embraced every opportunity to indulge in other sporting pursuits outside of football. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time on December 2nd, 1970, we can almost feel the buzz surrounding them at Wetherby races. The atmosphere is electric with spectators eagerly placing bets on their favorite horses. This photograph encapsulates both the thrill of betting on horse racing and the dedication these Leeds United players had towards all aspects of sportsmanship. Worsdale's expert eye has captured not just a moment but an entire era where football heroes ventured beyond boundaries to explore new avenues within the world of sports. This print serves as a reminder that true champions never limit themselves to one field; instead, they embrace every opportunity life presents them with open arms.
