About The Poster
This limited-edition print shows William S. Farish's 2019 Travers winner, Code of Honor, with Hall of Fame jockey Johnny Velazquez up, followed closely by Juddmonte Farms' Tacitus and his jockey, the amazing Jose Ortiz. All are framed beneath the new copper-topped bridge of the 1863 Club. We decided that this remarkable image should be a limited-edition, fine-art print.
To make the Travers memory a little sharper and sweeter, William Farish's distinctive silks and the 150th Running of the Travers Medalion has been added to the print. And to ensure the special nature of these prints, Hall of Fame trainer Claude R. "Shug" McGaughey III and fellow Hall of Famer jockey Johnny Velazquez to personally sign the prints. Greg Montgomery has signed and numbered these prints as well.
