Comments:
by Austin Sprake:
Sprake does not record this version of the title.

by Geoffrey Godden:
A rare variation has been noted in which the male figure in the top left-hand corner of the picture wears a blue coat, not the normal red one.

Other comments:
There are two riders visible in the top left hand corner of this silk. The rider on the left of these is the woman rider, and the one to the right, the male rider. The woman would normally be dressed in blue, although as can be seen, it is the male rider dressed in blue, instead of the usual red.
