The painting showcases a remarkable profile portrait of the renowned racehorse Barefoot, with jockey Dick Goodison skillfully guiding him through an English landscape. The composition is meticulously detailed, highlighting every muscle and sinew of both horse and rider. The intense concentration on Goodison's face reflects his dedication to his craft as he rides the champion thoroughbred. A stable hand stands nearby, ready to assist if needed. The painting exudes a sense of power and elegance, with Barefoot's sleek coat shining under the sunlight. A blanket adorns his back, adding a touch of regality to the scene.
