EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and elegance of horseracing in the 1920s, as Sierra Leone, a renowned thoroughbred racehorse, prepares for a race. Owned by the esteemed Edward Stanley, 17th Earl of Derby, Sierra Leone had achieved an impressive run of seven consecutive races without being unplaced. Surrounding the regal bay horse are key figures in the racing world. To its left, Lord Derby, a prominent figure in British society and a passionate horse owner, watches intently with a confident expression. On the horse's back, jockey Tommy Weston, with his focused gaze and determined posture, readies Sierra Leone for the start. The Hon. George Lambton, a fellow racing enthusiast and friend of Lord Derby, stands nearby, adding to the sense of anticipation. The photograph, taken circa 1925, beautifully encapsulates the allure and glamour of the sport during this era. The impeccably dressed gentlemen, the pristine racecourse, and the powerful, poised horse all contribute to a scene that transports us back in time. The 1920s, a decade of change and progress, is vividly brought to life through this image of a racehorse and its entourage.
