EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the thrilling moment of June 1970 at Epsom racecourse. The legendary Nijinsky, ridden by the esteemed jockey Lester Piggott, emerges victorious in the prestigious Derby. The image captures the raw energy and power of these magnificent creatures as they thunder down the course towards glory. With their muscles rippling and manes flowing in the wind, both horse and rider display an unwavering determination to conquer all obstacles in their path. Lester Piggott's expertise is evident in his poised posture atop Nijinsky, guiding him with finesse through every stride. Their partnership is a testament to years of hard work, dedication, and an unbreakable bond between man and beast. As spectators cheer from the sidelines, trainers watch with bated breaths; it is clear that this victory holds immense significance for all involved. This iconic moment showcases not only a triumph on a racetrack but also embodies the spirit of horseracing itself – a sport that combines grace, strength, strategy, and sheer willpower. This print serves as a timeless reminder of one of horse racing's most memorable moments from the 20th century - when Nijinsky and Lester Piggott etched their names into history books as true champions at Epsom's hallowed grounds.
