"A tall man in fashionable riding-dress stands in profile to the left, talking to a jockey; he holds a notebook and pencil in gloved hands. He wears a top-hat with deeply curved brim, voluminous swathed neckcloth and shirt-frill, single-breasted coat, with breeches and top-boots like those of the jockey. The latter wears a white jacket with pink sleeves and cap, and holds riding-whip and papers."--British Museum online catalogue
