专家说明

Gamester, owned by Sir Charles Monck and trained by John Scott, won both the Doncaster and Newmarket St. Legers in 1859. This picture records his victory at Newmarket on 28 September, only a fortnight after his win at Doncaster. Gamester is depicted on Newmarket Heath, set against the King's Gap in The Ditch and, to the right, the Ditch Stables. The unusually grand groom was presumably an assistant trainer or head lad to the aging John Scott, as he is neither the latter nor Sir Charles Monck.
