I am missing Ascot already! This year was absolutely stunning - the grass was its greenest, the sun was at its sunniest and hospitality was full to the rafters with beautifully dressed ladies and gentlemen.
Royal Ascot is synonymous with quality, style and excellence in providing unparalleled racing, hospitality and a memorable day out and I had the pleasure of attending as a punter on the Wednesday. I took my housemate Tash and friend of old, Georgie - neither of whom let me down on the dressing up front. No one needed telling twice to wear their very finest and it paid off - photgraphers loved our head-wear and I have been assured I am going to be made very famous in a highly regarded (?) publication in Norway ....
Royal Ascot hospitality provides the ultimate stage for the best racehorses in the world. The quality of the horseracing is simply outstanding, with over £4 million in prize money on offer and a total of seventeen "Group" races over the five days. Royal Ascot runs more group races than any other race meeting in the UK, including 7 Group Ones, the elite level of races, throughout the five days.
We managed to pick up a little something in each race and everything went into a kitty dubbed 'The Champagne Fund'. We were very giggly by the end of the day!
