Lot 202 - John Scott, racehorse trainer, a leather bound...

John Scott, racehorse trainer, a leather bound photograph album with more than 40 hand tinted albumen prints of jockeys in their horse racing silks. John Scott (1794-1871) was probably the most successful trainer in British Flat Racing history, winning the five classics 42 times; The Derby (6); The Oaks (9); St Ledger (16); 1,000 Guineas (4); 2,000 (7). To put this into perspective Henry Cecil, regarded as one of the greatest trainers in history, trained 25 classic winners. Scott was the first trainer to win the triple crown. The pictures of jockeys include George Fordham, John Wells and Tommy Ashmall. John Scott trained at Whitewall Stables in Malton, currently run by Mark Campion.
