The horse can be sent to you.' I said 'No.' Then the son who rides racing wrote to me and my reply was 'No; I paint no horses for people.' One morning, working in the rubbing stable, I was aware that I must have a racehorse to paint...On the Heath the next morning I saw Lawson, who used to train Lord Astor's horses at Manton. Talking to him, High Stakes came into mind...He found the horse already at Newmarket...as I worked I saw in the poise of his head, in his actions, the sire Hyperion that I had painted fifteen years ago.\" \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sir ALFRED MUNNINGS, P.R.A.
