EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 9th of June in 1980. Fresh off his triumphant victory in the French Derby, jockey Willie Carson can be seen at Lingfield Racecourse. The image captures a unique moment as Carson, standing at a modest height of 5'1", borrows a photographer's metal Camera Case for an interview with the BBC's Christopher Powell, who towers over him at an impressive 6'2". The contrasting heights between these two figures create a delightful "little and large" dynamic that adds an element of humor to this otherwise serious sport. Despite their physical differences, both men share a passion for horseracing and are dedicated professionals in their respective fields. Carson's racing silks proudly display his achievements and serve as a reminder of his recent success on the track. This photograph not only showcases Carson's skill as a jockey but also highlights the camaraderie and lightheartedness present within the horse racing community. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but appreciate the charm and nostalgia it evokes from the 1980s era. It serves as a testament to Carson's determination and resilience while offering us glimpses into moments that make horseracing such an enchanting world.
