Wow.

Every now and again a sporting photograph arrives that you know will be looked at in awe for generations and Pat Healy provided one for the ages with this shot of a horse rearing up at the Laytown Races in Meath yesterday.

Thankfully, we’re glad to report that the horse, jockey and frightened onlooker were just fine afterwards.

Thanks to Pat Healy of Healy Racing for allowing us to reproduce the photo here. You can follow Pat on Twitter here.
