EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the 1930s racing scene, with Lord Furness, an aristocratic horse owner, and jockey Ronald Buchanan deep in conversation at a racing fixture. The image, taken in the 1930s, exudes an air of elegance and excitement as the two men discuss the intricacies of the sport they both love. Lord Furness, dressed in a stylish top hat and overcoat, exudes an aura of wealth and sophistication, while jockey Buchanan, with his riding boots and jockey silks, represents the grit and determination of the athletic horseman. In the background, a crowd of onlookers, including a suave-looking tout, add to the lively atmosphere of the racecourse. The horse, with its sleek coat and determined expression, serves as a reminder of the central role it plays in this grand tradition. The calendar date on the wall behind Lord Furness indicates that this scene unfolded in the early days of the racing season, adding to the sense of anticipation and excitement. This photograph is a charming snapshot of a bygone era, when the sport of horse racing brought together the aristocracy and the common folk in a shared celebration of speed, skill, and the thrill of the chase. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of horse racing as a quintessentially British pastime and a reminder of the rich history and tradition that surrounds it.
