EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Rogerstone Castle, Jockey: E. C. Elliott in 1939. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, depicting an exhilarating horse race at Ascot. E. C. Elliott, a skilled jockey, is seen confidently guiding his magnificent grey thoroughbred across the lush green grass. The vibrant colors of this portrait add to its allure; from the striking blue sky to the delicate pink rose adorning Elliott's headdress, every detail comes alive. Dressed in traditional racing silks and donning a cap with his number prominently displayed, Elliott epitomizes the grace and determination required for success in this thrilling sport. As we delve into this snapshot from the thirties, we are transported back to a bygone era when horse racing was at its peak. The atmosphere of excitement and anticipation permeates through every pixel of this photograph. It is worth noting that this image holds historical significance as it commemorates Elliott's victory in the National Breeders Produce Stakes at Ascot in 1938—a testament to his exceptional talent as a jockey. Preserved on a cigarette card by W. D & H. O Wills of Bristol, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable piece of sporting history. It allows us to appreciate not only the skillful partnership between man and animal but also offers us a glimpse into one man's triumph on that fateful day at Ascot Racecourse over eight decades ago.
