EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the Victorian era, the world of horseracing was ablaze with excitement as five three-year-old thoroughbreds ruled the tracks in 1876. This photograph captures the essence of that thrilling time, featuring the famous racehorses Enguerrande, Forerunner, Camelia, Kisber, and Petrarch. Enguerrande, the striking chestnut bay, is seen here with jockey Fred Archer at the reins. Archer, known for his daring riding style, would go on to win the Derby that year aboard this powerful steed. Forerunner, a dark bay colt, is shown with jockey Sam Chifney. This horse, sired by the legendary Eclipse, was a favorite among bettors and spectators alike. Camelia, a beautiful roan filly, is depicted with jockey Tom Cannon. Camelia's grace and speed made her a formidable contender on the racetrack. Kisber, a dark brown colt, is seen with jockey George Fordham. Kisber's impressive record included victories in the 1000 Guineas and the Oaks, making him a double crown winner. Lastly, Petrarch, a bay colt, is shown with jockey Fred Archer, who would later win the Derby on Enguerrande. Petrarch's impressive performances throughout the season solidified his place among the top three-year-old racehorses of 1876. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of elegance, excitement, and the unbridled passion for horseracing. The five famous three-year-old racehorses of 1876 - Enguerrande, Forerunner, Camelia, Kisber, and Petrarch - continue to captivate us with their stories of triumph and determination on the racetrack.
