The day was beautiful with great weather and lots of British Racing grandeur with Ascoteer’s dressed in their finest. Were located in the Grandstand area with Ladies ordained by Fascinators and Hats and Men were sharply suited and booted, surrounded by jugs of Pimms for all!
We all got involved in a bit of betting with and few of us being let down in the first race of the day in the Albany Stakes by choosing ‘Sexy Legs’ (who would have thought!?) but ‘Sunset Glow’ came 2nd helping to lift our spirits! You have to be in it to win it!
A Race in action!
Caroline won a fair bit on the rather fitting choice of ‘Less Talk in Paris’ in the Coronation Stakes. After much deliberation by the Ascot Judges the lads cashed in on a win from ‘Hartnell’ in the Queen’s Vase race. The betting kept us all on our toes, with a fun filled and friendly environment with everyone screaming on for their bet to win!
Ascot Grandstand
For many of us it was our first time at Ascot and I’m sure I am safe in saying that it will not be our last!
