EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1885, transports us back in time to a bustling horse racing meeting during the Victorian era. The image showcases a large crowd of gentlemen, all dressed in their finest attire, gathered near the Secretary of the Course's Pavilion. The Secretary, dressed in formal attire and holding a top hat, stands at the entrance of the tent, likely overseeing the race proceedings. The excitement in the air is palpable as the crowd eagerly anticipates the upcoming race. Some spectators lean in for a closer look at the race program or engage in animated conversations with one another, while others clasp their binoculars, ready to catch a glimpse of their chosen horse in action. A few punters, with determined expressions, study the form guide or consult with tipsters, hoping to secure a winning bet. The tent, adorned with colorful banners and pennants, adds to the festive atmosphere of the event. The backdrop of lush greenery and open sky further emphasizes the natural beauty of the setting. The horse racing meeting was a popular pastime for the upper and middle classes during the 19th century, providing an opportunity for socializing, entertainment, and the thrill of competition. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of horse racing and the social customs of the Victorian era.
