EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite gold plate, bearing the impressively preserved hoof of the legendary racehorse, Eclipse, is a testament to the rich history of horseracing in Britain. Presented to the Jockey Club at Newmarket by King William IV in 1832, the plate commemorates one of the most iconic figures in the world of equestrian sports. Eclipse, a chestnut stallion foaled in 1764, is renowned for his unbeaten racing record of 18 races between 1766 and 1769. His victories were so impressive that they earned him the moniker "The Invisible Horse," as his opponents rarely managed to keep him in sight during a race. This plate, a precious relic from the past, serves as a reminder of Eclipse's unparalleled achievements and the enduring allure of horseracing. The Jockey Club, an esteemed organization that has played a pivotal role in the governance and development of British horseracing since its inception in 1750, proudly displays this historical artifact. The club's headquarters at Newmarket, a town steeped in racing history, is the perfect home for this cherished piece. The intricate design of the plate, with its intricate engravings and the imprint of Eclipse's hoof, adds to its historical significance. The plate's preservation is a testament to the importance placed on the legacy of Eclipse and the rich heritage of horseracing in Britain. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when horses ruled the racetracks and the spirit of competition was at its zenith. The hoof of Eclipse, encased in gold, continues to inspire awe and admiration, standing as a symbol of the enduring allure and rich history of horseracing.
