In this photo print, we are transported back to the exhilarating atmosphere of a ladies point-to-point race. The South and West Wilts Hunt point-to-point races at East Knoyle on Saturday were an event filled with excitement and elegance. The image captures Mrs Guthrie, a fearless participant in the race, as she fearlessly takes a fence in splendid style. Her determination is evident as she confidently guides her horse over the obstacle, showcasing both her riding skills and bravery. This photograph not only provides us with a glimpse into sporting history but also offers insight into the fashion trends of the 1920s. The monochrome tones highlight the timeless elegance of these women riders who embraced both practicality and style in their attire. As we gaze upon this snapshot from between the wars, it serves as a reminder of Europe's rich heritage and cultural traditions. It transports us to an era where equestrian events were highly anticipated social gatherings that brought communities together.
