PLATE IV. 



Reproduction from Mr. Theodore A. Cook's book, ' A History of the 

 English Turf,' published by Virtue and Co., of an engraving in the 

 Duke of Newcastle's book, dated 1667, with the title, ' A New 

 Method and Extraordinary Invention to Dress Horses and Work 

 them according to Nature.' The horse in this picture is represented 

 with the hoofs of the hind-legs up-turned as in the pose of the flying 

 gallop introduced by Stubbs a hundred and twenty years later. The 

 horse is, however, in this picture not supposed to be " galloping," 

 but is "jumping," and in that action, as shown in PI. Ill, fig. 6, the 

 legs and hoofs do actually assume the position shown in this 

 admirable engraving.
