A day in the life of Arkle. Eating his oats and drinking his Guinness (A day in the life of Arkle. Eating his oats and drinking his Guinness.
21st November 1965) captures a remarkable moment in horseracing history. This iconic photograph, taken by renowned photographer Charman for Memory Lane Prints, transports us back to the rural countryside of the 1960s. Arkle, one of the most famous horses in racing history, is seen here indulging in his daily routine. With an air of elegance and power, he stands majestically while enjoying a hearty meal of oats - fueling himself for another day on the track. But what sets this image apart is Arkle's unconventional choice of drink - Guinness! Known for its rich flavor and nourishing properties, it seems that even horses appreciate a good pint now and then. The juxtaposition between this legendary horse savoring Ireland's beloved stout adds an element of intrigue to an already captivating scene. This photograph not only showcases Arkle's incredible athleticism but also highlights the unique bond between humans and animals within the world of horseracing. It serves as a reminder that these magnificent creatures are not just competitors but cherished companions who require care and attention. Charman's masterful composition immortalizes this snapshot from yesteryears, allowing us to relish in both nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for extraordinary talent.
