EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the thrilling moment of victory for Lord Rosebery, previously known as Albert Primrose, 5th Earl of Dalmeny, as he leads his racehorse Sandwich after its triumphant win at the 1931 St. Leger Stakes. The St. Leger is one of the oldest and most prestigious horse races in the world, held annually at Doncaster Racecourse in England. Lord Rosebery, an accomplished horse owner and breeder, is shown here in the prime of his life, exuding confidence and elation as he holds the reins of his champion thoroughbred. The jockey, Harry Wragg, sits atop Sandwich, his face a picture of determination and exhaustion after guiding the horse to victory. The crowd in the background is a sea of hats and umbrellas, their cheers and applause echoing through the air as the winning number is called out. The 1930s were a golden era for horseracing, and this photograph is a testament to the excitement and glamour of the sport during that time. The elegance and style of the participants, from the impeccably dressed nobility to the skilled jockeys, add to the allure of the event. This image is not only a record of a racing victory, but also a snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the spirit of a time when horse racing was a national obsession and a source of pride for the British people. The photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News - Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, is a timeless reminder of the enduring appeal of horseracing and the thrill of victory. It is a treasure trove of history, capturing not just the excitement of the race, but also the fashion, the social dynamics, and the sheer joy of a day at the races.
