The suffragette who jumped in front of a racehorse was Emily Davison, and she did so during the Epsom Derby in 1913 as a dramatic protest for women's suffrage in the UK. Her act aimed to draw attention to the struggle for women's voting rights and to highlight the sacrifices made by suffragettes in their fight for equality. Tragically, she was killed in the incident, which brought significant media attention to the suffrage movement.
