All day long, the song about Ascot from My Fair Lady has been running through my mind.
The best news of the day was that HM Queen Elizabeth II’s horse, Estimate, won the Ascot Gold Cup, the biggest race of Ascot Race week. She was so happy and excited by this win and it was just great to see that emotion.
She was due to present the Gold Cup to the winner, but instead, her son, Prince Andrew, presented the cup to her.
As usual, there were crazy hats galore at Ascot, and each year, they get more and more outlandish.
This one’s not so bad, but it’s probably a couture paper boat hat.
Legos and little lights
It’s hard to tell that there’s even a person in there
She’s probably pulling in satellite signals from outer space.
It’s not a scene from The Birds, it’s a hat.
I love the UK, you can bet on pretty much anything.
Purple it was!
Preparing for the upcoming Royal birth
The gents have it a little easier – a morning suit and a topper.
The dear Florence Claridge, looking a wee bit skeletal.
Elegant and appropriate
HM looking exceedingly happy with her race manager.
As her jockey look on, HM gives her winning filly a pat on the nose.
Guide dog Zoe gets into the act, but doesn’t look too happy
I’d say this gal got it pretty right.
It’s always fun to see what the Ladies wear on Ladies’ Day at Ascot.
