EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1950s in Lambourn Berkshire. The image features a young boy jockey named Lester Piggott, who would later become a legendary figure in the world of horse racing. Standing beside him is his father Keith Piggott, undoubtedly proud of his son's burgeoning talent. The scene captures an intimate moment between father and son, as they lean against a wooden fence overlooking the racecourse. Lester exudes confidence even at such a tender age, with his hands casually tucked into his pockets and a cigarette delicately held between his fingers - an unexpected sight for someone so young. It serves as a reminder that times were different back then. Keith watches intently as Lester prepares for another exhilarating ride on one of the magnificent horses that surround them. Their shared passion for the sport is palpable through their focused expressions and body language. This photograph not only showcases the early days of Lester Piggott's remarkable career but also highlights the importance of family support in achieving greatness. It immortalizes both father and son during a significant period in their lives when dreams were being realized and futures were being shaped. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel inspired by these two figures who embody dedication, determination, and love for their craft.
