EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1970s, a time when horse racing legend Lester Piggott stood tall next to Rocking Horse in the Daily Mirror studio. It was June 2nd, 1978, and Piggott had just been informed that he could win on a Rocking Horse if he triumphed in winning an unprecedented eighth Derby. With his trademark charm and wit, Piggott couldn't resist cracking a joke as he posed for the camera. "I won't fall off will I?" he playfully asked while flashing one of his rare smiles. The photograph perfectly captures the essence of this iconic jockey - confident yet humble, always ready with a quick quip. As one of the greatest flat racing jockeys of all time, Piggott's achievements were nothing short of extraordinary. Throughout his career spanning several decades, he amassed countless victories and earned himself a place in sporting history. This particular moment captured by Ley Charlie showcases not only Piggott's talent but also his ability to find joy even in lighthearted moments like posing alongside a toy horse. This print from Memory Lane Prints is more than just an image frozen in time; it is a testament to the enduring legacy of Lester Piggott and serves as a reminder of his remarkable contribution to the world of horse racing during the vibrant era of 1970s sport.
