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.
