The image showcases the iconic racehorse Arkle, standing proudly at the stable door within Tom Dreaper's yard on a crisp winter day, precisely on February 3rd, 1966. Arkle exudes an air of majesty and power as he gazes out from his sanctuary. His muscular frame is highlighted against the rustic backdrop of the stables, creating a striking contrast that emphasizes his unparalleled athleticism. This magnificent creature has etched his name into history with countless victories on prestigious racetracks around the world.
