"A Point-to-Point" is one of Snaffles' best-known works; this is a reproduction of the original and very scarce 1909 edition of the print and is the only version to show the horses in the centrepiece running from right to left, rather than left to right. At the time of this print's original creation, Snaffles had yet to achieve the great success and celebrity that he enjoyed later in his career. The caption for the dramatic centrepiece – "Slap at it for the honour of hit-'em-an'-hold-'em shire" - was omitted in many later editions of the print, but certainly adds atmosphere to the scene. Different vignettes were also added, but certain of the originals seem to have met with the artist's lasting approval and were retained, notably "Leppin Powder", "The more mud, the more glory" and "Toss'd about the world like an old 'at".
