EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of F.B. (Dick) Rees, an iconic jockey of the 1920s horseracing scene. Dressed in the traditional jockey uniform of the time, Rees exudes confidence and focus as he gazes intently over his shoulder. The vibrant red and white silks of his racing colors stand out starkly against the dark background, adding a pop of excitement to the image. Rees was a trailblazer in the world of National Hunt racing, becoming the first jockey to win an impressive 100 races in a single season, an achievement he accomplished in 1924. His success during the 1920s solidified his place in racing history. The photograph showcases Rees's attire in intricate detail. He wears a sleek, fitted jodphur suit, designed for both comfort and functionality during rigorous races. The high-waisted breeches are paired with a long-sleeved shirt, a silk cravat, and a leather belt. The jockey's silks are fastened with a small, golden safety pin, a common accessory during this era. A supple leather crop is held in his right hand, ready to be used to encourage his mount forward. The photograph, taken in 1925, is a testament to the dedication, skill, and style of a bygone era in horseracing. F.B. Rees's legacy continues to inspire jockeys today, as they strive for excellence on the racetrack.
