EDITORS COMMENTS
By Glencoe: A Stirring Depiction of Garrett Davis and His Champion Thoroughbred, Sir Leslie, at the Height of Their Racing Career (circa 1854) This photograph print, titled "By Glencoe: Garrett Davis by Sir Leslie," offers a glimpse into the thrilling world of 19th-century horse racing. The image showcases the renowned American jockey, Garrett Davis, astride his champion dam, Sir Leslie, as they approach the finish line with unbridled determination and raw speed. Garrett Davis (1826-1888) was a legendary figure in the annals of American horse racing. Born into slavery, he rose to prominence in the sport despite facing numerous obstacles, including racial discrimination. Davis's exceptional talent and unwavering dedication earned him the respect and admiration of his peers and spectators alike. Sir Leslie, a magnificent Thoroughbred dam, was one of Davis's most cherished mounts. The pair formed an unbreakable bond, winning race after race and cementing their place in racing history. In this photograph, Davis's expert handling of Sir Leslie is evident, as he maintains a firm grip on the reins and leans forward in the saddle, urging the horse to greater speed. The backdrop of the image, Glencoe, adds an air of elegance and sophistication to the scene. The picturesque dam, with its tranquil waters and lush greenery, serves as a striking contrast to the raw power and intensity of the horse and rider. This photograph print, captured around 1854, is a testament to the enduring bond between horse and rider and the thrill of the sport. It offers a rare glimpse into a bygone era, where courage, skill, and determination reigned supreme on the racetrack.
