EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of a Donkey Derby in Wivelsfield Green, Sussex on Whit Monday in 1958. The focus of the image is lightweight jockey Geraldine Hinson, a mere nine years old from Jarvis Brook, Sussex. With determination shining in her eyes and donning her riding gear including a protective hard hat, she prepares to mount Gay Paree for the thrilling race ahead. Geraldine's remarkable talent as a young jockey has already been recognized, as she and Gay Paree emerged victorious last year by clinching the prestigious Cucifield cup. Now they stand as favorites for this year's derby with high hopes resting upon their shoulders. What makes Geraldine even more extraordinary is her petite frame weighing only four stones. Yet despite her small stature, she fearlessly takes control of the powerful donkey beneath her. The photograph beautifully captures both the gracefulness and strength of these magnificent creatures known for their long ears - donkeys belonging to the horse family Equidae. It showcases not only Geraldine's passion for riding but also highlights the importance of protective clothing such as riding hats. This timeless image serves as a testament to courage and dedication while offering us an enchanting glimpse into an era where traditional sporting events like Donkey Derbies held immense popularity among communities across Britain.
