EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the celebrated trotting horse trustee in the prime of his career, as he tackled the challenging feat of covering 20 miles in just one hour during a historic match against time on the Union Course, Long Island, New York, on October 20, 1848. The trustee, a renowned figure in the world of harness racing, is depicted in the moment of triumph, his powerful muscles taut and glistening with sweat as he strains to maintain his blistering pace. The Union Course, a popular venue for such events, stretches out behind him, a testament to the endurance and determination of both the horse and its rider. The year was 1848, a time when such feats of athleticism captivated the public imagination and drew large crowds. This photograph, a rare surviving record of an era long past, offers a glimpse into the rich history of horse racing and the remarkable achievements of its most celebrated figures.
