To mark the 200th anniversary of The Westmorland Gazette in 2018, we are publishing a photograph from our archives on our website every day this year.

Today's photograph shows a close finish in the Grange Selling Handicap Hurdle Race at Cartmel Steeplechases, which was won by L. James on Sandon in May 1947.

You can see all of the archive photographs uploaded so far by going to http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/gazette_200th_anniversary/
