Abstract
Description on back: "One of the most popular sports: Horse Racing, Queens Park Savannah, Port-of-Spain." This photograph was taken at the southern side of the Queen's Park Savannah showing the foremost venue for racing events on a regular basis since 1853. Here hordes of people are watching a race in progress. Horse racing was a fashionable pastime providing glamour, excitement, competition and was a major sporting attraction staged at the savannah until 1994. The sprawling Hilton Hotel can just be seen among the trees to the left.
