Portrait of jockeys at a clubhouse

    I gather this is a pic of amateur riders...taken at a country race meeting...the location looks similar to the jockey's room at Yass, but it isn't a match. The chap on the right is Sydney solicitor Dennis Allen, who was a prominent amateur rider in the 1920s and early 1930s...the chap 2nd left might be Jack Melvil, another prominent amateur rider, but I'm unsure. trove.nla.gov.au/work/184210358 - Allen can be identified via this NLA Fairfax pic... trove.nla.gov.au/work/13508018 - this SLNSW pic shows Allen and other riders at Yass...a similar kind of location...

    Plural tags seem so strange (to me)!

    Sorry, we use a plural thesaurus in the Library. Force of habit!

    Lovely. Going to use to congratulate Rachel Alexandra; she just won the Preakness, second in the Triple Crown races, here in Maryland--against all wishes of all owners of colts. Take that! Bella pix.
