EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of horseracing in the 1950s. The image captures Grand National runner "The Crofter" at his training quarters at Deeside Cottage stables in Bangor-on-Dee. Standing proudly beside him is Mr. Doug Francis, his dedicated trainer, who exudes confidence and expertise. With years of experience under his belt, Francis has undoubtedly played a crucial role in shaping The Crofter into the formidable racehorse he is today. Completing this powerful trio is jockey Paddy Fitzgerald, whose determination can be seen etched on his face as he prepares for their next challenge on the racetrack. A true partnership between man and horse is evident here, with both Fitzgerald and The Crofter ready to give it their all. March 1957 marks an important moment captured forever in this photograph - a snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates the passion and excitement of horseracing during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Memory Lane Prints by Mirrorpix, we cannot help but feel drawn into its narrative - a tale of dedication, skill, and unwavering teamwork that defines the sport of horseracing itself.
