EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Arthur Sidey, we are transported back to the 1960s at the Finmere Jumping Show and Gymkhana near Buckingham. The event was held in aid of the Stoke Mandeville Games, a cause close to many hearts. In this particular moment frozen in time, injured steeplechase jockey Tim Brookshaw is seen sharing a trick with his wheelchair to fellow jockey Fred Winter. The image exudes both camaraderie and determination as these two sportsmen bond over their shared experiences of injury. As Tim demonstrates his wheelchair maneuver, Fred eagerly watches on, perhaps eager to learn something new or simply inspired by Tim's resilience. However, fate has its own plans for Fred as he comes to grief during this impromptu lesson. This split-second captures both surprise and concern on their faces - a reminder that even those who have mastered the art of horseracing can still face unexpected challenges. This photograph not only showcases the spirit of friendship within the sporting community but also serves as a poignant reminder that life can be unpredictable for even the most skilled athletes. It stands as a testament to human perseverance and highlights how moments like these shape our understanding of strength and resilience in times of adversity.
