EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print captured by Arthur Sidey, we are transported back to the 1989 Grand National, where an unexpected scene unfolds. Little Polveir, the victorious horse of that year's race, takes a momentous pit stop outside a local pub in his hometown of Fyffield Hants. The image encapsulates both the spirit of celebration and the humorous side of life. As onlookers gather around with amused expressions, Little Polveir stands tall and proud while his jockey dismounts for a well-deserved pint of beer. It is as if he understands the magnitude of his achievement and wants to join in on the revelry himself. With its charmingly unusual nature, this photograph captures a unique bond between man and animal. The nostalgia-inducing setting further enhances our connection to this moment frozen in time - it truly embodies the essence of 1980s British culture. This snapshot showcases not only an iconic sporting event but also highlights how even animals can partake in lighthearted human activities such as enjoying a drink at their local pub. Arthur Sidey's keen eye for capturing these extraordinary moments allows us to relive history through his lens. This print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a reminder that sometimes life surprises us with unexpected joy and reminds us to appreciate those rare instances when they occur – even if it involves witnessing an equine champion indulging in some post-race refreshments!
