EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1909, showcases the bustling scene of the Record Newmarket Sales, a renowned event in the world of Thoroughbred racing. The sales, held in Newmarket, England, brought together enthusiasts from far and wide to buy and sell horses, with many of the top specimens hailing from the late Sir Daniel Cooper's stable. Among the impressive horses on display, the bay Thoroughbred named Flair, with his sleek muscles and powerful build, drew particular attention. Sir Frederick Stern, a fellow racing aficionado, was the fortunate buyer, securing Flair for a hefty sum of 15,000 guineas. Sir Daniel Cooper, a respected figure in the racing community, had bred and raised Flair under the Douglas Baird stable. The Record Newmarket Sales were a significant part of the horse racing industry, providing opportunities for breeders, trainers, and owners to acquire top-quality Thoroughbreds. The event showcased the excitement and passion that surrounded the sport, with each horse sale a potential turning point in the careers of both the horses and their new owners. This photograph, a testament to the rich history of Thoroughbred racing, captures the essence of the Record Newmarket Sales and the anticipation that surrounded the sale of a promising young racehorse like Flair.
