Someone gave me an embossed tin of 150g round shortbread in one of their tins for a little Xmas gift as it has a picture of 3 racehorses on it and entitled "At the barn door."
I'm pretty sure i know the 3 horses in the picture but i can't find this picture anywhere on the Web and just wondered if anyone on here received the same gift or has seen it in the shops.
There isn't even a picture of this tin on their own website stewartstins.com. A Scottish company based in Perth, can e-mail them if no joy here but thought it would be fun if anyone else can name them.

If the horses are Arkle, Red Rum and Desert Orchid, it could be from SL Crawford's painting "We Three Kings"?

Success, have found the photo on deposit photos.com, typed in young curious thoroughbred horses at stable door and it popped up, (same picture of 3 horses taken from a slightly different angle), if you type that in picture is 3rd row down on the far right.
As they are young horses almost certainly not the horses i thought they were, but if you saw these horses pictured together in a stables, older obviously, who would you think they were? https://depositphotos.com/photos/young-curious-thoroughbred-horses-at-stable-door.html?filter=all |

No bother, beats me how they can use the word luxury. Nearer 30% butter in proper stuff.

No guesses as to which horses these could have become if in same stable?

It`s just a stock photo from dreamstime.com to put on a shortbread tin. Horses are of no particular note.

Yes, i realise that mighty mac, but at 1st sight i thought i'd seen this picture before and the horses reminded me of 3 great racehorses who were in the same stable at same time, similar let's say.

Three Kings (as mentioned above) is the only similar piece of art that I can ever remember stewarts. If you go to dreamtime.com the exact picture is there (with no names listed) and there are loads of similar examples. Nice tin though!
