EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the unusual and humorous moment when Forbra, the Grand National winner ridden by Captain F.S. Russell, enjoys a well-deserved break after his triumphant race in 1932. Trainer Tom Rimell and his family playfully stage a high tea party for their victorious steed, complete with a dainty teacup and saucer. The horse's curious expression and the elegant table setting create a whimsical scene that perfectly encapsulates the eccentric spirit of the 1930s. Forbra, dressed in his winning jockey silks, appears to savor the moment, taking a gentle sip from the teacup with his long tongue. The image is a delightful reminder of the unique bond between humans and horses, and the playful sense of humor that often accompanies their shared achievements. This charming photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the thrill of a horse race was celebrated with unusual and amusing traditions.
