Lambton, and Lord Derby. Each figure is depicted with a unique and humorous touch, adding to the overall merriment of the scene. Outside the carriage, we meet an assortment of other familiar faces, such as Mr. P.P. Gilpin, Mr. Atty Perase, Mr. W. Clarke, Hon. E. Willoughby, Sir James Buchanan, Major D. McCalmont, and Mr. Jimmie Rothschild. All are shown in high spirits, eager to enjoy the excitement of the day and the thrill of the race.
