The Training Ground, Newmarket, 1845. Jockeys and grooms practice for the races at Newmarket in Suffolk. 'In no spot on earth is there so much material of interest for the true lover of the craft and subtlety of racing, as on the Exercise Grounds around Newmarket. The town itself has probably changed but little since first it became the chief resort of Horse-racing'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
