EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the exhilarating moment as jockeys and their horses, including the legendary War Admiral, approach the Starting Post at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York State, USA. The year is 1939, and the atmosphere is electric as the crowd eagerly anticipates the start of the race. Saratoga Race Course, established in 1863, is one of the oldest and most prestigious thoroughbred racing venues in the United States. The historic track, nestled in the picturesque town of Saratoga Springs, has played host to some of the most memorable races in American horse racing history. In this image, the jockeys, dressed in their colorful silks, focus intently on their mounts, preparing for the imminent burst of speed. War Admiral, a chestnut horse with a distinctive white blaze down his face, stands proudly at the front of the pack. The horse, who would go on to win the Triple Crown in 1937, is a testament to the skill and determination of both the jockey and the horse. The Starting Post, a symbol of the beginning of the race and the culmination of weeks or even months of training and preparation, looms large in the background. The tension in the air is palpable as the horses and jockeys jostle for position, poised to burst into a gallop at the sound of the starter's gun. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the rich history and tradition of horse racing in America, and the thrill of the sport that continues to draw crowds to Saratoga Race Course to this day.
