. In this photo print, taken circa 1909 by the talented W. G. Phillips, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur of a horse racing event in all its glory. Dressed impeccably in their finest Edwardian attire, racegoers exude an air of sophistication and refinement. The composition captures a diverse group of supporters and spectators, both male and female, who have come together to indulge in the thrill of horse racing. Their fashion choices reflect the high society standards prevalent during that era - bowler hats, top hats, coats, day dresses - each detail meticulously chosen to showcase their status. Amidst the bustling atmosphere at the racetrack, these individuals display unwavering concentration as they study "the form" analyzing every aspect before placing their bets. It is evident that horse racing was not merely a sport but also a social occasion for this elite gathering. W. G. Phillips' masterful use of landscape format allows us to appreciate not only the fashion statements but also the architectural beauty surrounding them.
