The scene is set amidst the picturesque English landscape, with rolling hills and lush greenery serving as a backdrop for the exhilarating event. Three jockeys can be seen racing towards the right side of the composition, their horses galloping at full speed. Their determination is palpable as they lean forward, urging their steeds on. The artist's skillful use of graphite and watercolor brings out every detail of muscle tension and movement in both riders and horses. In the distance, mounted spectators eagerly follow the action. They are mere silhouettes against the horizon but add depth to the scene, emphasizing that this thrilling display is not just for those participating but also for those who have gathered to witness it.
