<strong>MEDIA</strong> <strong>GUIDE</strong>


WELCOME TO ROYAL ASCOT FROM<br />

HER MAJESTY’S REPRESENTATIVE<br />

May I wish a warm welcome to the world’s media in this very special Diamond Jubilee year.<br />

Her Majesty The Queen has owned no fewer than 63 <strong>Ascot</strong> winners, 20 of them at the Royal<br />

Meeting, and it’s always a great thrill for everyone when the Royal colours are successful.<br />

It would be marvellous for that to happen this year. We recall the perfect timing in Silver Jubilee<br />

year when dual Classic-winning Dunfermline provided tremendous success for The Queen.<br />

As part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations, we are staging a very special exhibition titled<br />

“60 years of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> during the Reign of Her Majesty The Queen.”<br />

Situated beside the pre-parade ring, this is a photographic commemoration of the Royal<br />

Family at <strong>Ascot</strong> over the past 60 years.<br />

Central to the Royal Meeting is the fact that, on the track, we have the finest programme of<br />

races anywhere in the world. We have increased our prize money this year by £715,000 and<br />

now offer £4.5 million across the 30 races of the five-day meeting. None of the races are<br />

worth less than £55,000. Two of our races offer prize money of £500,000 each.<br />

We have renamed The Golden Jubilee Stakes. From this year it is The Diamond Jubilee<br />

Stakes and with prize money of £500,000 it is Britain’s most valuable sprint race. Royal<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong>’s two legs of the Global Sprint Challenge, The King’s Stand Stakes on Tuesday and<br />

The Diamond Jubilee Stakes on Saturday, will again feature a truly cosmopolitan field of<br />

runners.<br />

We are delighted that Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is now so firmly on the itinerary of top-class horses from<br />

around the world.<br />

All seven of the Group One championship races run at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> are part of the QIPCO<br />

British Champions Series, which is now in its second year and has provided a compelling<br />

new element to the British racing programme. The series culminates at <strong>Ascot</strong> with QIPCO<br />

British Champions Day on Saturday, October 20.<br />

But this week is all about celebrating Britain’s pinnacle of summer racing.<br />

I hope you have a wonderful time with us.<br />

2012 PRIZE MONEY RAISED TO £4,500,000<br />

The total Prize Fund for this year’s Royal Meeting will be £4,500,000, an increase of<br />

£715,000 on 2011 values.<br />

The Prince of Wales’s Stakes, being run this year as “The 150 th Anniversary of The Prince Of<br />

Wales’s Stakes,” and The Diamond Jubilee Stakes, will both be run for £500,000, an increase<br />

of £100,000 in each instance.<br />

The Queen Anne Stakes, Gold Cup and King’s Stand Stakes will be worth £350,000 this year,<br />

representing increases of £100,000 for the first two named and £50,000 for the latter.<br />

The Hardwicke Stakes has doubled in value to £200,000 and there will be no penalties to be<br />

carried by Group One or Two winners this year.<br />

The King Edward VII Stakes will be run for £150,000 (£140,000 in 2011); The Ribblesdale<br />

Stakes will be run for £125,000 (£100,000 in 2011); The Wokingham and Royal Hunt Cup<br />

Handicaps will be run for £125,000 (£100,000 in 2011); The Buckingham Palace Handicap<br />

will be run for £75,000 (£50,000 in 2011) and The Duke of Edinburgh Handicap will be run<br />

for £70,000 (£50,000 in 2011).<br />

In addition, £5,000 has been added to the value of seven races previously run for £50,000, to<br />

increase the minimum prize money at the meeting to £55,000.<br />

Charles Barnett, Chief Executive at <strong>Ascot</strong>, said:<br />

“In an increasingly competitive international environment, it is crucial for Europe’s flagship<br />

race meeting to invest in prize money and we are delighted to have made a near 20 per cent<br />

increase to last year’s total Prize Fund in this respect.<br />

“At Group One level, we have increased the value of the races which historically attract<br />

interest from around the world and those that we feel have the most scope to do so in the<br />

future.<br />

“The Hardwicke is a race that we are very keen to build as it comfortably achieves Group One<br />

ratings on a regular basis. In order to attract Group One and Group Two winners further, the<br />

penalties have been removed and the race has doubled in value.<br />

“Ensuring that the whole Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> programme on a domestic level moves forward is as<br />

important as investing in the Pattern races, and we have increased the value of several<br />

handicaps, including the flagship Royal Hunt Cup and Wokingham.”<br />

TELEVISON COVERAGE<br />

The first five races from Tuesday to Friday and the first four on Saturday will be covered on<br />

BBC Television on the BBC HD channel and across BBC1 and BBC2 as detailed on the<br />

following page. All 36 races are also shown live on At The Races. Through BBC Worldwide<br />

and GBI Racing, pictures from Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> are distributed to approximately 200 countries.<br />

ASCOT ON THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE<br />

AND THE GLOBAL SPRINT CHALLENGE<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> is home to Europe’s premier race meeting, Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>; to Europe’s mid-summer<br />

middle distance championship, the £1-million King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes<br />

(sponsored by Betfair, July); to the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup (August), a unique<br />

international jockeys’ team event; and to the culmination of the European season, the £3-<br />

million QIPCO British Champions Day (October).<br />

Considered the standard-bearer for international racing within Europe, <strong>Ascot</strong> actively seeks to<br />

strengthen its programme through the participation of horses from all around the world.<br />

The racecourse has welcomed runners from Australia, New Zealand, America, Hong Kong,<br />

Japan, South Africa and all over Europe in recent years, none higher profile and more groundbreaking<br />

than Choisir, who landed the King’s Stand Stakes/Golden Jubilee Stakes double for<br />

Australia in 2003, paving the way for wins for compatriots Takeover Target, Miss Andretti<br />

and Scenic Blast.<br />

In 2005, <strong>Ascot</strong> set up a sprinting series, the Global Sprint Challenge, with Racing Victoria<br />

and the Victoria Racing Club in Australia and the Japan Racing Association. The Hong Kong<br />

Jockey Club, Newmarket <strong>Racecourse</strong>s, the Singapore Turf Club and the Dubai Racing Club<br />

have subsequently joined and the series now numbers 10 races from February to December.<br />

Since the inauguration of the Global Sprint Challenge, 40 horses trained outside Europe have<br />

lined up in the two sprints at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. In 2005, The King’s Stand Stakes was worth<br />

£140,000 and The Diamond Jubilee Stakes £250,000. Both have increased significantly in<br />

value to reflect their growing international significance and The Diamond Jubilee Stakes now<br />

has prize money of £500,000, with The King’s Stand Stakes valued at £350,000.<br />

With £400,000 on offer for the Darley July Cup, the third European leg of the Challenge,<br />

there is well over £1 million available for the world’s top sprinters across the three UK legs.<br />

A US$ £1-million bonus pool is available to the connections of any horse which wins three<br />

challenge legs in three different countries.<br />

AUSTRALIA’S LEADING LADIES<br />

HEADLINE INTERNATIONAL CAST<br />

Black Caviar (Peter Moody), with The Diamond Jubilee Stakes her target, heads the<br />

international cast for this year’s Royal Meeting. Compatriot, Ortensia (Paul Messara),<br />

arrived in the UK shortly after winning the Al Quoz Sprint in Dubai and she is being aimed at<br />

The King’s Stand Stakes.<br />

Such is the unprecedented interest in Black Caviar’s first overseas trip at home that The<br />

Diamond Jubilee Stakes will be shown live on a big screen in Federation Square in<br />

Melbourne, even with the race going off after midnight Australian time.<br />

The first four home in Dubai’s 5f Group One Turf Sprint on World Cup night, the Al Quoz,<br />

are all on target for The King’s Stand Stakes, including third placed Joy And Fun (Derek<br />

Cruz), for Hong Kong. Also on track for the sprint on 19 th June for Hong Kong is Little<br />

Bridge (Danny Shum), who split Joy and Fun and Japanese champion Curren Chan when<br />

fourth in the Hong Kong Sprint in December. Little Bridge has won both the Bauhinia Sprint<br />

Trophy and Sprint Cup at home this season.<br />

Bahrain-trained Krypton Factor (Fawzi Nass), winner of the Dubai Golden Shaheen on<br />

World Cup night before disappointing on unsuitable ground in Singapore, will lock horns<br />

with Black Caviar in The Diamond Jubilee Stakes.<br />

No one from the United States has supported Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> more loyally than Ken Ramsey,<br />

whose famous red and white silks came so close to victory with Cannonball in the 2009<br />

Golden Jubilee Stakes.<br />

Ramsey has a strong team on course for Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, with the star name amongst them the<br />

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf winner, Stephanie’s Kitten (Wayne Catalano), who is<br />

firmly on course for The Coronation Stakes following a recent Grade Two victory at<br />

Churchill Downs.<br />

Ramsey is also set to be represented by Big Blue Kitten (Chad Brown) in The Prince of<br />

Wales’s Stakes; Hyper (Chad Brown) in The Wolferton Stakes; Sisterhood (Wesley Ward)<br />

in The Sandringham Stakes and Redwood Kitten and Emotional Kitten (both Wesley<br />

Ward) in The Chesham Stakes.<br />

Wesley Ward, who has trained two Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winners, is also planning on running<br />

Allaboutcaroline, owned by Team Valor, in The Queen Mary Stakes and Undrafted, owned<br />

by star New England Patriots receiver, Wes Welker, in the Norfolk Stakes.<br />

The American horses are being stabled in Epsom with Jim Boyle whilst the remainder are<br />

being housed in Newmarket.<br />

(Note: Ken Ramsey also owns Real Solution, trained in Italy by Gianluca Bietolini, who is<br />

being aimed at The King Edward VII Stakes).<br />

QIPCO TO BACK ROYAL ASCOT<br />

TOP JOCKEY AND TRAINER AWARDS<br />

QIPCO, sponsors of the British Champions Series, which culminates in QIPCO British<br />

Champions Day on 20 th October, are the sponsors of the coveted top jockey and top trainer<br />

awards at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> this year.<br />

Trophies for the “QIPCO Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> Top Jockey” and “QIPCO Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> Top Trainer”<br />

awards will be presented on the final day of the meeting to the jockey and trainer amassing<br />

the most wins during the week, with places counted back in the event of a tie.<br />

Last year’s winners were Ryan Moore and Aidan O’Brien.<br />

QIPCO British Champions Day is the richest day’s racing in Britain at £3 million and features<br />

the £1,300,000 Champion Stakes, £1,000,000 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, £250,000 British<br />

Champions Sprint Stakes, £250,000 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes and the<br />

£200,000 British Champions Long Distance Cup - all sponsored by QIPCO.<br />

The championship day, along with the QIPCO British Champions Series, now in its second<br />

year, is aimed at broadening the appeal of the sport.<br />

There are five series race categories. Four categories are by race distance - Middle Distance,<br />

Mile, Sprint and Long Distance. Mindful of the fact that with Britain’s fillies and mares<br />

programme so strong following an intensive development of their Pattern, a separate Fillies<br />

and Mares category operates.<br />

The Series includes all the major meetings leading up to QIPCO British Champions Day.<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, with all seven Group One races designated to their appropriate categories, will<br />

play a part in the series along with the King George in July.<br />

The Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> races included are: The Queen Anne Stakes (mile); The King’s Stand Stakes<br />

(sprint); The St James’s Palace Stakes (mile); The Prince of Wales’s Stakes (middle<br />

distance); The Gold Cup (long distance); The Coronation Stakes (fillies and mares) and the<br />

Diamond Jubilee Stakes (sprint).<br />

Along with 24 of 30 races at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> and four on King George Day, all five QIPCO<br />

British Champions Day races will be shown live on BBC television this year.<br />

Sectional timing from TurfTrax is to be rolled out across almost two-thirds of the 35 Series<br />

races in 2012 in a joint deal between QIPCO British Champions Series and the four<br />

individual racecourses involved – <strong>Ascot</strong>, Goodwood, Newmarket, and York.<br />

In total, 19 racedays will be covered, including all five days of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, and timings will<br />

be provided for all 30 races at the Royal Meeting.<br />

Frankie Dettori and Hayley Turner are the 2012 jockey ambassadors for the QIPCO British<br />

Champions Series.<br />

VETERINARY FACILITIES, EQUINE &<br />

JOCKEYS’ WELFARE<br />

The safety and welfare of horses and jockeys is paramount throughout the year at <strong>Ascot</strong> and<br />

nowhere is this better demonstrated than in the changes made to the racing surface itself<br />

during the redevelopment (<strong>Ascot</strong> reopened in 2006).<br />

The key elements of the project were to camber the home and old paddock bends and,<br />

crucially, to remove the road crossings over the track, replacing them with underpasses.<br />

This has created a safer race track for the horses, where previously some less experienced<br />

runners had occasionally shied at the differing surfaces.<br />

Four specifically qualified equine vets, led by Senior Veterinary Surgeon, Svend Kold, are on<br />

duty every race day at <strong>Ascot</strong>, dedicated to the welfare of all the horses.<br />

During each race, vets follow the runners by car and can respond to and attend a casualty<br />

generally within a minute - as fast as the paramedic teams responsible for human casualties.<br />

There are two equine ambulances on course at all times and three ambulances for any<br />

incidents involving injuries to jockeys.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong>’s two permanent veterinary boxes are supplemented with an X-Ray machine for the<br />

major meetings to assist with swift diagnosis before administration of treatment on site or any<br />

movement necessary to equine hospitals.<br />

The state-of-the-art jockeys’ facilities at <strong>Ascot</strong> include a medical treatment room, rest rooms<br />

and a dedicated room for physiotherapy.<br />

During Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, there are four doctors on site, led by Senior <strong>Racecourse</strong> Medical Officer,<br />

Dr Roger Gould, specifically to deal with any jockey injuries.<br />

RESERVES AT ROYAL ASCOT<br />

Reserves will be declared at the 48-hour stage for all Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> eligible handicaps. Up to<br />

three reserves can replace non-runners any time up to 9am the day before the race.<br />

Eligible races are The Royal Hunt Cup, The Britannia, The King George V, The Buckingham<br />

Palace, The Wokingham and The Duke of Edinburgh handicaps.<br />

ASCOT STALWARTS DEPART<br />

Two longstanding members of the Racing Department will leave <strong>Ascot</strong> this year. Gilly<br />

Gilford has been Head Groundsman since March, 1996 and retires after Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, whilst<br />

Kevin Maguire has been Stables Manager from October, 1982 and retired in early May.<br />

THE QUEEN AND ROYAL ASCOT<br />

With the racecourse decked in no less than four kilometres of bunting, nowhere will the<br />

country’s passion and admiration for the Royal Family in this Diamond Jubilee year be more<br />

obviously and enthusiastically celebrated than at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

The question on everyone’s lips will be: Will The Queen have a Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winner to add to<br />

the 20 that have gone before?<br />

The Queen’s last winner came on the final day of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> 2008 when Free Agent came<br />

from a seemingly impossible position to win The Chesham Stakes, ending a blank period<br />

stretching back to 1999. Go to page 98 for a full list of The Queen’s Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winners.<br />

The Queen’s involvement with racing began in 1952 and her first winner, Monaveen, owned<br />

jointly with her mother, came in a humble Fontwell jumps race.<br />

On the death of her father, King George VI, The Queen inherited the Royal string of Flat<br />

horses, which at the time were mainly trained by Cecil Boyd-Rochford and Noel Murless. It<br />

didn’t take long for her first top horse to come along.<br />

Aureole, by the great Hyperion, was second to Pinza in the 1953 Derby and he must rank as<br />

one of The Queen’s best horses, with victories in the 1954 King George VI & Queen<br />

Elizabeth Stakes and Hardwicke Stakes. Aureole went on to be champion sire in Britain.<br />

The Queen’s first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success came when Choir Boy landed the 1953 Royal Hunt<br />

Cup, one of 11 successes during the 1950s, with others including 1957 Ribblesdale Stakes<br />

winner Almeria, who went on to finish second in the King George, and Pall Mall, who took<br />

the 1957 New Stakes en route to victory in the 2,000 Guineas the following year.<br />

The 1960s were a quieter time for the Royal thoroughbreds, although Aiming High landed the<br />

1961 Coronation Stakes and Hopeful Venture the 1968 Hardwicke Stakes.<br />

But The Queen’s racing fortunes entered another golden period in the 1970s, helped by the<br />

brilliant Dick Hern-trained filly Highclere, who won the 1,000 Guineas and French Oaks in<br />

1974 before finishing second to Dahlia in that year’s King George.<br />

As Silver Jubilee celebrations were being held throughout the land in 1977, a filly came along<br />

that would ensure a year of tremendous success for the Royal colours, with Dunfermline<br />

winning both the Oaks and St Leger.<br />

The Queen has not since had another Dunfermline but there have been successes, including<br />

Colour Sergeant in the 1992 Royal Hunt Cup, Phantom Gold in the 1995 Ribblesdale Stakes<br />

and Blueprint in the 1999 Duke of Edinburgh Stakes.<br />

Having had a Silver Jubilee Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winner, The Queen missed out in Golden Jubilee year,<br />

2002, but hopes are high for success in 2012, not least through her 2011 Derby third, Carlton<br />

House, who is entered in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes and reappeared with victory in the<br />

Brigadier Gerard Stakes at Sandown in May.<br />

JOHNNY WEATHERBY TAKES REINS AS<br />

HER MAJESTY’S REPRESENTATIVE<br />

The Duke of Devonshire stood down as Her Majesty’s Representative and Senior Trustee at<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> following last year’s Royal Meeting and Her Majesty The Queen appointed Johnny<br />

Weatherby as his successor. He is the fifth person to hold the position during her reign.<br />

Johnny Weatherby, a Trustee at <strong>Ascot</strong> since 1997, has been Chairman of <strong>Ascot</strong> Authority<br />

(Holdings) Limited since 2008. He is also Chairman of the Weatherbys group of companies.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> has three Trustees and last year The Queen appointed Sir Francis Brooke Bt, to serve<br />

alongside Johnny Weatherby and Mark Davies (an <strong>Ascot</strong> Trustee since 2002), following the<br />

Duke’s retirement.<br />

Sir Francis Brooke is a Director and Senior Fund Manager at Troy Asset Management Ltd.<br />

His family has been involved for many years in the breeding, owning and training of<br />

racehorses.<br />

From 1711 until 1901, the administration of <strong>Ascot</strong> was undertaken by the Master of the<br />

Buckhounds. Charles Crompton William Cavendish, 3 rd Baron Chesham, was the last person<br />

to hold the role which was superseded by the position of His Majesty’s Representative on the<br />

accession of King Edward VII.<br />

STARS OF STAGE, SCREEN AND SPORT<br />

TO PRESENT TROPHIES<br />

Famous names from the world of sport and entertainment will join members of the Royal<br />

Family and the racing fraternity in presenting trophies to winning owners during Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

Fittingly, in this Olympic year, sporting greats such as Sir Roger Bannister, Sally Gunnell,<br />

Colin Jackson and Sir Steve Redgrave will all be presenting, along with Formula 1 driver,<br />

Jenson Button; golfer, Lee Westwood; Wimbledon Singles Champion, Virginia Wade and<br />

former cricket commentator Henry Blofeld.<br />

Notable faces from the entertainment world, including Katherine Jenkins, Michael McIntyre,<br />

Robson Green, David Walliams and Lara Stone, will also be presenting trophies during the<br />

week, together with Edward Parker, the co-founder of Walking with the Wounded.<br />

This UK charity funds both the retraining and re-education of wounded servicemen and<br />

women and stages extreme expeditions to illustrate the extraordinary determination and<br />

courage of our injured.<br />

NEW ROYAL ENCLOSURE AND<br />

GRANDSTAND DRESS CODE<br />

In January, the new dress code for Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, which has been designed with assisting<br />

visitors to this very special occasion in mind, was announced.<br />

Subsequently, Style Guides for both main enclosures, aimed at bringing the wording to life,<br />

have been distributed to badge and ticket holders.<br />

The Style Guides can be viewed at:<br />

Royal Enclosure: http://www.ascot.co.uk/go/rencstyle<br />

Grandstand Admission: http://www.ascot.co.uk/go/gastyle<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is a unique, stand alone event in the sporting and social calendar and dressing<br />

accordingly is part of the experience.<br />

Whilst the spirit of the dress code has always reflected this, the letter of it has arguably lacked<br />

clarity, leading in some cases to misunderstanding of what constitutes appropriate attire for<br />

this formal occasion.<br />

It is hoped that visitors to the Royal Enclosure and Grandstand will find the new wording of<br />

assistance when selecting their outfits for Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

The headline points are:<br />

Royal Enclosure – Ladies:<br />

“Dresses and skirts should be of modest length defined as falling just above the<br />

knee or longer.” This replaces the less clear instruction that miniskirts are considered<br />

unsuitable.<br />

“Hats should be worn; a headpiece which has a base of 4 inches (10cm) or more<br />

in diameter is acceptable as an alternative to a hat.” This clarifies that fascinators<br />

are no longer permitted in the Royal Enclosure.<br />

Royal Enclosure – Gentlemen:<br />

“Gentlemen are kindly reminded that it is a requirement to wear either black or<br />

grey morning dress which must include a waistcoat and tie (no cravats), a black<br />

or grey top hat and black shoes.” This clarifies that cravats are not acceptable and<br />

that black shoes should be worn with morning dress.<br />

Grandstand Enclosure – Ladies:<br />

“A hat, headpiece or fascinator should be worn at all times.” This replaces advice<br />

that many ladies wear hats but this is not compulsory.<br />

10


“Strapless or sheer strap dresses and tops are not permitted.” This, and several<br />

other points, illustrate better what is meant by the previous guidance that ladies are<br />

required to dress in a manner appropriate to a smart occasion.<br />

Grandstand Enclosure – Gentlemen:<br />

“Gentlemen are required to wear a suit and tie.” This replaces the instruction that<br />

gentlemen must wear a shirt and tie, preferably with a suit or jacket.<br />

Charles Barnett, Chief Executive at <strong>Ascot</strong>, said:<br />

“We have worked extensively with experts in the world of fashion to define better what<br />

formal dress means, with the overarching intention of being as helpful as possible to our<br />

visitors and assisting everyone in understanding what is expected and, we believe, cherished<br />

about the dress code at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

“It isn’t a question of elitism and not being modern in a world where there is less and less<br />

requirement to dress smartly – far from it. We want to see modern and stylish dress at Royal<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong>, just within the parameters of formal wear, and the feedback we have received from our<br />

customers overwhelmingly supports that.”<br />

Dolly Jones, Editor of Vogue.com, commented:<br />

“I love Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> – we’ve covered the fashion there for years on VOGUE.COM, often with<br />

films presented by great milliners including Stephen Jones and Philip Treacy. I think a<br />

clarification of the dress code will raise the bar even higher.”<br />

Sarah Harris, Fashion Features Editor, Vogue added:<br />

“Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is one of the most prestigious events of the season and improving the dress<br />

code wording will ensure that the event remains iconic and a strong part of the fashion<br />

calendar.”<br />

ASCOT - ITS HISTORY AND TRADITIONS<br />

It was Queen Anne who first saw the potential for a racecourse at <strong>Ascot</strong>, which in those days<br />

was called East Cote. Whilst out riding in 1711, she came upon an area of open heath, not far<br />

from Windsor Castle, that looked an ideal place for “horses to gallop at full stretch.”<br />

The first race meeting ever held at <strong>Ascot</strong> took place on Saturday, August 11, 1711. Her<br />

Majesty’s Plate, worth 100 Guineas and open to any horse, mare or gelding over the age of<br />

six, was the inaugural event. Each horse was required to carry a weight of 12st and seven<br />

runners took part.<br />

This contest bore little resemblance to racing seen at <strong>Ascot</strong> today. The seven horses were all<br />

English Hunters, quite different to the speedy thoroughbreds that race on the flat now.<br />

The race consisted of three separate heats which were four miles long (each heat was about<br />

the length of the Grand National), so the winner would have been a horse with tremendous<br />

stamina. Sadly, there is no record of the winner of the first Plate.<br />

The racecourse was laid out by William Lowen, who was assisted by a team of helpers;<br />

William Erlybrown, a carpenter, Benjamin Cluchett, a painter, and John Grape, who prepared<br />

the paperwork for racing. The first permanent building was erected in 1793 by George<br />

Slingsby, a Windsor builder. It held 1,650 people and was used until 1838.<br />

In 1813, Parliament passed an Act of Enclosure. This Act ensured that <strong>Ascot</strong> Heath, although<br />

the property of the Crown, would be kept and used as a racecourse for the public in the future.<br />

Racing at <strong>Ascot</strong> was now secure.<br />

The precise origin of the Royal Meeting is unclear. It was an event that evolved, perhaps,<br />

rather than was introduced at a specific time, but the first four-day meeting took place in<br />

1768. Arguably, the meeting as we know it today started to take shape with the introduction<br />

of the Gold Cup in 1807.<br />

Gold Cup Day is the third day of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. Although you won’t find it in any marketing or<br />

promotional literature, Thursday is colloquially known as Ladies’ Day.<br />

The term Ladies’ Day seems to be have been first used in 1823, when an anonymous poet<br />

described the Thursday of the Royal Meeting as ‘Ladies’ Day, when the women, like angels,<br />

look sweetly divine.’ In the formative years, Thursday was certainly the dominant day in<br />

terms of the racing, attracting the largest crowds and, it must be assumed from the emergence<br />

of the term, more ladies!<br />

Almost every racecourse markets a Ladies’ Day now, but the great charm of the original is<br />

that it has evolved rather than been created. It is the public, not the racecourse, who call it<br />

Ladies’ Day.<br />

The Gold Cup is <strong>Ascot</strong>’s oldest surviving race, and the winning owners receive a gold trophy<br />

which becomes their property. Perpetual trophies are only awarded for three races at the<br />

Royal Meeting, the other two being The Queen’s Vase, inaugurated in 1838 to commemorate<br />

19


Queen Victoria’s accession, and The Royal Hunt Cup (1843). For all other races, Challenge<br />

trophies are awarded, which are returned to <strong>Ascot</strong> and presented each year.<br />

It was at around the time of the first running of The Gold Cup that the roots of today’s<br />

traditional Royal Enclosure dress code emerged.<br />

Beau Brummell, a close friend of the Prince Regent, decreed that men of elegance should<br />

wear waisted black coats and white cravats with pantaloons. Over the years, this has evolved<br />

into the wearing of morning suits and equally formal clothes for ladies, who must wear hats.<br />

Although a Royal Stand dates back to the 1790s, the Royal Enclosure that current regulars are<br />

used to at <strong>Ascot</strong> was born in 1822 when King George IV commissioned a two-storey stand to<br />

be built with a surrounding lawn. Access was by invitation of the King.<br />

In 1825, the Royal Procession as an annual tradition began. The King, leading four other<br />

coaches with members of the Royal party, drove up the centre of the racecourse in front of the<br />

crowds and this has continued to the present day.<br />

The administration of <strong>Ascot</strong> has always been handled by a representative appointed by the<br />

Monarch. The racecourse was run on behalf of the Sovereign by the Master of the Royal<br />

Buckhounds up until 1901 when Lord Churchill was appointed as the first official<br />

Representative of His Majesty, a post held today by the Duke of Devonshire.<br />

In 1913, when the <strong>Ascot</strong> Authority was established by an Act of Parliament, His Majesty’s<br />

Representative became Senior Trustee of the Authority with the Clerk of the Course acting as<br />

Secretary. Today, as <strong>Ascot</strong> Authority (Holdings) Limited, <strong>Ascot</strong> has a formal board<br />

comprising the Chief Executive, the General Manager and the Finance Director (from the<br />

executive team), supported by a Chairman, Her Majesty’s Representative and a further trustee<br />

and non-executive director.<br />

In 1955, the rules of divorce were relaxed and divorcees were able to enter the Royal<br />

Enclosure. However, a redevelopment of the Enclosure shortly before this had added the new<br />

Queen’s Lawn, which was by invitation and the Court rules governing divorce still applied.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong>’s first major redevelopment came to fruition in 1954, with the relocation of the straight<br />

mile north to allow more space behind the stands. This was the second such move and even<br />

this time around, they didn’t go quite far enough as the track was moved a further 42 metres<br />

north as part of the recent redevelopment! Prior to the second move, the straight track cut<br />

right through the existing Number One Car Park into the current site of Heatherwood<br />

Hospital.<br />

The Queen Elizabeth II Grandstand, built by Wimpey, was erected between the 1960 and<br />

1961 Royal Meeting and the Members’ Stand went up between Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> 1963 and 1964.<br />

The Car Parks at <strong>Ascot</strong> almost certainly play more part in the event than at any other venue –<br />

they are far from merely functional with lavish picnics, including butlers, candelabra and<br />

silver service not uncommon, especially in Number One and Two Car Parks. In 2006, a<br />

Country Life survey found that Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is the South of England’s most popular picnic<br />

spot and the most popular sporting occasion at which to picnic in the country.<br />

20


Although <strong>Ascot</strong> likes to think it runs Number One Car Park, it is far from uncommon for<br />

berths in this sought after spot to be passed down formally from generation to generation.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong>’s much loved tradition of “singing round the bandstand” or “community/traditional<br />

singing” began in the 1970s under the stewardship of Lady Beaumont, wife of the then Clerk<br />

of the Course, Captain Sir Nicholas Beaumont. The now unmissable sing song of British<br />

favourites and flag waving after racing was an immediate success with thousands of racegoers<br />

staying on and making it an integral part of their day. Now, traditional singing is listed as part<br />

of the day’s formal proceedings in the racecard and song books and flags are handed round.<br />

2002 saw plenty of change to the established pattern at the Royal Meeting with additional<br />

races named after Royal breeding centres introduced as the meeting expanded to five days to<br />

mark The Queen’s Golden Jubilee.<br />

In addition, one race name was changed as the newly promoted Cork & Orrery Stakes became<br />

The Golden Jubilee Stakes. The racecourse was decked out in red, white and blue flags as the<br />

five days in June played a major part in the country’s celebrations.<br />

The racecourse closed for redevelopment in September 2004 – with the Finale Meeting<br />

ending with singing round the bandstand – the first time this tradition has been extended to a<br />

non-Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> day.<br />

The 2005 Royal Meeting was staged in York, providing the city with its biggest ever sporting<br />

event. The city, region and racecourse threw themselves into the extravaganza, which saw<br />

expansion into the Knavesmire so as to accommodate circa 50,000 people each day.<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> at York took place with a Royal Enclosure dress code and Royal Procession<br />

every day. The bell used to instruct jockeys to mount at <strong>Ascot</strong> travelled up along with the<br />

Brown Jack statue commemorating the <strong>Ascot</strong> legend. Even the “Greencoats,” who form the<br />

ceremonial guard for The Queen at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, came to York. Their garb rather speaks for<br />

itself and it is rumoured that the original velvet uniforms were made from material left over<br />

from curtains in Windsor Castle.<br />

Historically, <strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong> redevelops every 50 years or so, once a generation, and<br />

throughout considerable changes the Royal Meeting has maintained its position as a much<br />

loved event at the heart of the national sporting and social calendar. <strong>Ascot</strong>’s traditions remain<br />

as strong, strictly observed and loved now as they ever were, whilst the racing goes from<br />

strength to strength (Group One races have more than doubled to seven since 1999).<br />

The new <strong>Ascot</strong>, designed by HOK Sport, was officially reopened by The Queen, on time and<br />

to its £220 million budget, on 20 th June 2006.<br />

The modern era immediately had a new equine legend in Yeats, who won an unprecedented<br />

four Gold Cups before retiring in 2009. A statue to commemorate his achievements now<br />

stands in the Parade Ring.<br />

2011 saw <strong>Ascot</strong> celebrate its tercentenary and this year is another exciting landmark occasion<br />

for the racecourse as the Royal Meeting plays its part in The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee<br />

celebrations.<br />

ASCOT RACECOURSE KEY DATES<br />

Summer 1711 – It was Queen Anne who first saw the potential for a racecourse at <strong>Ascot</strong>, which<br />

in those days was called East Cote. Whilst out riding she came upon an area of open heath, not<br />

far from Windsor Castle, that looked an ideal place for “horses to gallop at full stretch.”<br />

June 1711 – Charles, Duke of Somerset instructed Sir William Wyndham, Master of the Royal<br />

Buckhounds, to have the open heath cleared of scrub and gorse in preparation for a race meeting.<br />

11 August 1711 – The first race meeting ever held at <strong>Ascot</strong> took place. Her Majesty’s Plate,<br />

worth 100 guineas and open to any horse, mare or gelding over the age of six, was the inaugural<br />

event. Each horse was required to carry a weight of 12st and seven runners took part.<br />

17 September 1711 – the success of Her Majesty’s Plate in August meant the second meeting<br />

followed soon after in September.<br />

31 July 1727 – John Cheny published a prototype form book, which evolved into the Racing<br />

Calendar, recording the conditions of each race and the prize.<br />

1744 – The Yeoman Prickers were formed. Employed by the Master of the Buckhounds, their<br />

distinctive livery of forest green coats with gold facings are worn today by the <strong>Ascot</strong> Greencoats,<br />

who attend Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> each year.<br />

1752 – The popularity of attending the racing at <strong>Ascot</strong> was becoming apparent in social circles,<br />

prompting the Duke of Bedford to write that when arriving in London ‘I could find no soul to<br />

dine or sup with.’<br />

1762 – The first use of racing colours was introduced, although it wasn’t mandatory for another<br />

two decades.<br />

1773 – James Weatherby, Keeper of the Match Book (the book of records for match races) was<br />

authorised by the Jockey Club to publish a racing calendar. James Weatherby began a family<br />

firm, still in existence today. Weatherbys are the secretariat of horse racing in Britain.<br />

June 1791 – The Oatlands Stakes was run at <strong>Ascot</strong> – an important landmark race as it was the<br />

1,650 people and was used until 1838.<br />

1807 – The inaugural running of The Gold Cup for three-year-olds and upwards. It is significant<br />

that the first Gold Cup was won by a three-year-old, this was an event designed to attract horses<br />

bred to compete much younger than had been the case the previous century.<br />

22


1813 – Parliament passed an Act of Enclosure. This Act ensured that <strong>Ascot</strong> Heath, although the<br />

property of the Crown, would be kept and used as a racecourse for the public in the future.<br />

Racing at <strong>Ascot</strong> was now secure. The Master of the Buckhounds continued to manage the races<br />

and the racecourse – just as it was more than 100 years before.<br />

1820 – George III died and the Prince Regent ascended the throne as George IV. He immediately<br />

ordered alterations to be made to the Royal Stand by John Nash. Nash’s alterations did not satisfy<br />

the King and so, in 1822, Nash designed a brand new Royal Stand, erected in just five weeks.<br />

1822 – The Royal Enclosure was born when King George IV commissioned a two-storey stand to<br />

be built with a surrounding lawn. Access was by invitation of the King where he entertained his<br />

friends in style.<br />

1825 – King George IV’s greatest legacy to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> was the Royal Procession. The King<br />

1838 – Horses were numbered in the racecard.<br />

July 1838 – A decision was made to construct a new stand between the betting stand and the<br />

Royal Stand. The new stand took 10 months to build and was warmly welcomed when it opened<br />

on May 20, 1839. The lower half of the stand could hold about 3,000 people and contained a<br />

betting hall.<br />

1839 – For the first time at <strong>Ascot</strong>, the judge hoisted the number of the winner onto a large<br />

blackboard, thus putting an end to the disputes as to which horse had won.<br />

1856 – The railway was brought to <strong>Ascot</strong> with the opening of the Staines to Wokingham line.<br />

1861 (approx) – Racing in the mid-19th century was becoming more professional with <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

appointing its first official Clerk of the Scales, James Manning (whose family stayed in the post<br />

until 1970, latterly working for the Jockey Club).<br />

1861 – Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, died and Queen Victoria did not return to<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> again.<br />

1863 – Prince Albert, eldest son and second child of Victoria and Albert, known as Bertie,<br />

attended his first <strong>Ascot</strong> meeting aged 21 and continued to lend his support to the Royal Meeting<br />

with enthusiasm. He restored the Royal Procession and revived the custom of inviting overseas<br />

visitors to <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

23

King’s representative. The first man to undertake this role was Viscount Churchill.<br />

1901 – All three stands in the Royal Enclosure were demolished under the instruction of King<br />

Edward VII and two new stands were built between September, 1901 and May 1902. The total<br />

cost was £28,350.<br />

1902 - A third stand was built at a cost of £27,636. This stand included lifts, the first to be<br />

installed on a British racecourse. In order to have the work completed by May 1902, some 500<br />

men were employed on the task, working day and night shifts.<br />

1908 – The ‘Five Shilling Stand’ was built – later known as the Silver Ring Stand at a cost of<br />

£30,000.<br />

1912 – Racegoers began to arrive by car and for the first time, motor cars were allowed to park<br />

on the Heath.<br />

designs had been agreed by the <strong>Racecourse</strong> Betting Control Board (RBCB), the authority<br />

overseeing wagering at this time.<br />

1936 – George V died and was succeeded by his eldest son, who became Edward VIII. The new<br />

Simpson.<br />

1937 – George VI & Queen Elizabeth attend their first <strong>Ascot</strong> race meeting.<br />

Entrance was by invitation only and the Court rules governing divorce still applied.<br />

13 June 1961 – The Grandstand was demolished and the Queen Elizabeth II Stand was built. It<br />

took 11 months to build, with 550 workers at a cost of £1 million. The stand represented a stateof-the-art<br />

facility at the time, accommodated 13,000 people and had 280 private boxes.<br />

RACE HISTORIES & CONDTIONS<br />

The Queen Anne Stakes (Group One)<br />

Founded in 1840, The Queen Anne Stakes commemorates the monarch who established racing at<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> in 1711. Run as The Trial Stakes until 1929, The Queen Anne Stakes was first awarded<br />

Group Three status in 1971, becoming Group Two in 1984. The race, attracting Europe’s top<br />

older milers, achieved the highest three-year average rating of any Group Two race in Britain<br />

from 1999 to 2002 according to the then International Classifications (now World Thoroughbred<br />

Rankings) and was elevated to Group One status accordingly in 2003. At that time, it moved<br />

from the traditional opening race on the card to the fourth race. However, in 2008 it reverted to<br />

its traditional slot, opening the meeting.<br />

The King’s Stand Stakes (Group One)<br />

A Stand Plate was first run on the round course in 1837, becoming The Royal Stand Plate in<br />

1858. The race was re-named The Queen’s Stand Plate in 1860 for two-year-olds, over the sprint<br />

distance of four furlongs, finally becoming The King’s Stand Plate in 1901. Today the race<br />

remains a sprint, although now run over the minimum trip of five furlongs for three-year-olds and<br />

upwards. In 2005, it became the first British leg of the Global Sprint Challenge and in 2008 it<br />

was promoted to Group One.<br />

The St James’s Palace Stakes (Group One)<br />

Named after the Tudor Royal residence, the inaugural running of The St James’s Palace Stakes in<br />

1834 was a walkover for the Derby winner Plenipotentiary. This race features the best male<br />

milers from the Classic generation, often attracting horses that have run in the English, French<br />

and Irish 2,000 Guineas.<br />

The Coventry Stakes (Group Two)<br />

First run in 1890, the race was named after the ninth Earl of Coventry, Master of the<br />

Buckhounds, between 1886 and 1892. This is the first Group contest of the year for juveniles.<br />

Many top class horses win this race before going on to achieve greatness and, in 2004, the race<br />

was promoted to Group Two status.<br />

The <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes (Handicap)<br />

First run in 1839, The <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes is run over two and a half miles. Like The Gold Cup and<br />

Queen Alexandra Stakes, this race provides a thorough test of stamina. It is one of just three races<br />

at the Royal Meeting in which the field passes the winning post twice. The race attracts horses<br />

that have run in the early season staying handicaps, most notably the Chester Cup.<br />

The Windsor Castle Stakes (Listed)<br />

First run in 1839 over the straight mile course, this race was originally designed to attract threeyear-old<br />

colts and fillies that had competed in the early season Classics. It is now run over the<br />

minimum distance of five furlongs and restricted to two-year-olds.<br />

26


The Jersey Stakes (Group Three)<br />

The Jersey Stakes replaced the second leg of the Triennial Stakes in 1919. Named after the fourth<br />

Earl of Jersey, who was the Master of the Buckhounds between 1782 and 1783, this specialist<br />

seven-furlong contest is framed for three-year-olds who have yet to win a Group One or Group<br />

Two race, but have often competed at that level, including in the Guineas.<br />

The Windsor Forest Stakes (Group Two)<br />

The Windsor Forest Stakes was a new addition to the Royal Meeting in 2004 and part of an<br />

industry-wide initiative to encourage connections of the leading Classic generation fillies from<br />

the previous year to keep their stars in training. Run over the straight mile course, it is open only<br />

to fillies and mares aged four or over. As a Group Two race, Group One winners carry a penalty,<br />

so the option of the Group One Queen Anne Stakes, where no penalties are carried, is still open<br />

to the very best fillies.<br />

The Prince of Wales’s Stakes (Group One)<br />

The Prince of Wales’s Stakes, first run at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 1862 and therefore celebrating its 150 th<br />

anniversary this year, is named after the son of Queen Victoria (later to become King Edward<br />

VII). Originally staged over a mile and five furlongs, the race often attracted horses that had<br />

participated in the Classics. There was no Prince of Wales’s Stakes from 1946 until 1968, a year<br />

before the current Prince of Wales’s investiture in 1969, when the distance changed to one mile<br />

and two furlongs. In 2000, The Prince of Wales’s Stakes was upgraded to Group One status and<br />

restricted to four-year-olds and upwards.<br />

The Royal Hunt Cup (Handicap)<br />

The Royal Hunt Cup always provides one of the greatest spectacles of the Royal Meeting as a<br />

maximum field thunders up <strong>Ascot</strong>’s straight mile course for one of the biggest betting races of<br />

the season. First run in 1843, it was originally staged over seven furlongs and 155 yards. The<br />

current distance of a mile was established in 1955 when the straight course was re-aligned as part<br />

of the previous redevelopment.<br />

The Queen Mary Stakes (Group Two)<br />

Named after the consort of King George V, this race was first run in 1921. The first major race of<br />

the season exclusively for two-year-old fillies, The Queen Mary Stakes is run over the minimum<br />

distance of five furlongs and provides a useful opportunity to assess their ability and potential to<br />

perform at Group One level. It was promoted to Group Two status in 2004.<br />

The Sandringham Stakes (Listed Handicap)<br />

Originally registered as The Fern Hill Stakes, this race was part of the traditional Heath Day card<br />

on the Saturday after Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. It was renamed The Sandringham Stakes, after the royal<br />

residence, as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations in 2002. This is a competitive Listed<br />

handicap over a mile, limited to three-year-old fillies only.<br />

27


The Norfolk Stakes (Group Two)<br />

First run in 1843, this race was formerly known as the New Stakes and staged over a distance of<br />

just under four furlongs. It was renamed after the Duke of Norfolk, Her Majesty’s Representative<br />

at <strong>Ascot</strong> between 1945 and 1972, in 1973. For two-year-olds, it was promoted to Group Two<br />

status in 2006.<br />

The Ribblesdale Stakes (Group Two)<br />

Named after the fourth Baron Ribblesdale, Master of the Buckhounds between 1892 and 1895.<br />

First run in 1919, this race was originally staged over a mile for three and four-year-olds. It is<br />

now restricted to Classic generation fillies and run over the longer distance of a mile and a half.<br />

The Gold Cup (Group One)<br />

Founded in 1807, The Gold Cup (which, contrary to popular opinion is not called the “<strong>Ascot</strong><br />

Gold Cup”) is the oldest and one of the most prestigious races at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. Staged over the<br />

marathon trip of two and a half miles, the race is a stiff test of stamina and attracts the very best<br />

staying horses. Many horses have distinguished themselves with dual Gold Cup wins, enhancing<br />

the race’s reputation as a specialists’ event. Sagaro won three times in the 1970s but Yeats did<br />

better still, becoming a four-time winner in 2009.<br />

The Britannia Stakes (Handicap)<br />

First run in 1928 over the straight mile of the Royal Hunt Cup course and run under similar<br />

conditions today. Open to three-year-old colts and geldings only, The Britannia is almost as<br />

popular these days as The Royal Hunt Cup.<br />

The Tercentenary Stakes (Group Three)<br />

The Tercentenary Stakes became the new name for The Hampton Court Stakes in 2011, when the<br />

racecourse celebrated 300 years since its inauguration. It was also been promoted from Listed to<br />

Group Three in tandem. The race was originally part of the Saturday Heath Day card, under the<br />

title of The New Stakes, and joined Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations in<br />

2002. This 10-furlong event is restricted to three-year-olds.<br />

The King George V Stakes (Handicap)<br />

Like The Duke of Edinburgh Stakes, this is a handicap for middle distance performers, staged<br />

over one and a half miles. The inaugural running was in July 1946 as part of the first fixture<br />

staged at the racecourse after the Royal Meeting, before the race was transferred to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

in 1948. It is for three-year-olds.<br />

28


The Albany Stakes (Group Three)<br />

This race was first run in 2002 as The Henry Carnarvon Stakes, honouring The Queen’s late<br />

racing manager, and proved so successful that it was promoted to Group Three status in 2005.<br />

Restricted to two-year-old fillies, the six-furlong event provides one of the first opportunities of<br />

the season for promising types to prove their ability and go on to harbour Guineas aspirations.<br />

The King Edward VII Stakes (Group Two)<br />

Formerly known, and still colloquially referred to, as The <strong>Ascot</strong> Derby, this race was inaugurated<br />

in 1834 and regularly featured horses of both sexes that had competed in the middle-distance<br />

Classics. First run as The King Edward VII Stakes in 1926 and now restricted to three-year-old<br />

colts and geldings only, it still attracts horses that have competed in the Derby.<br />

The Coronation Stakes (Group One)<br />

First run in 1840, The Coronation Stakes was founded to commemorate the crowning of Queen<br />

Victoria in 1838. This mile event is the fillies’ equivalent of The St James’s Palace Stakes and<br />

attracts horses that have run in the English, Irish and French 1,000 Guineas.<br />

The Wolferton Handicap Stakes (Listed)<br />

First run in this form in 2002 as part of the five-day Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> meeting to celebrate The<br />

Queen’s Golden Jubilee, this is a Listed handicap over 10 furlongs for four-year-olds and<br />

upwards.<br />

The Queen’s Vase (Group Three)<br />

Named to honour Queen Victoria and first run in 1838, this race became The King’s Vase in<br />

1903 and reverted to its original name of The Queen’s Vase on the succession of Queen Elizabeth<br />

II. Run over two miles, this Group Three contest provides a thorough test of stamina for threeyear-olds<br />

and winners of this race often go on to compete in The Gold Cup in future years.<br />

The Buckingham Palace Stakes (Handicap)<br />

Another race introduced as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations in 2002. Staged over seven<br />

furlongs, it is a tricky and competitive handicap for three-year-olds and upward, with aspirations<br />

to compete at Listed level.<br />

The Chesham Stakes (Listed)<br />

Named after the third Baron Chesham, who was the last Master of the Buckhounds from 1900 to<br />

1901. First run in 1919, The Chesham Stakes replaced the first leg of The Triennial Stakes, which<br />

had been run over five furlongs for two-year-olds. Now a Listed contest, the race takes place over<br />

the longer distance of seven furlongs.<br />

29


The Hardwicke Stakes (Group Two)<br />

Named after the fifth Earl of Hardwicke, Master of the Buckhounds between 1874 and 1879, the<br />

race was first run in 1879. The Group Two contest continues to attract the best older middle<br />

distance horses today, and is often an informative guide to The King George VI & Queen<br />

Elizabeth Stakes (sponsored by Betfair) in July. This year, for the first time, it will be run with no<br />

Group One or Two winners’ penalties and prize money has doubled to £200,000<br />

The Diamond Jubilee Stakes (Group One)<br />

Formerly known as The Cork and Orrery Stakes, Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>’s most prestigious sprint was given<br />

a new name and elevated to Group One status to celebrate The Queen’s Golden Jubilee in 2002.<br />

This year and going forward, it assumes the mantle of Diamond Jubilee Stakes. First run in 1868,<br />

this six-furlong contest was originally named after Lord Cork, another Master of the Buckhounds.<br />

In 2005, the race became the second British leg of the Global Sprint Challenge.<br />

The Wokingham Stakes (Handicap)<br />

The inaugural running of The Wokingham Stakes took place in 1813, making this race the oldest<br />

handicap at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. This famous sprint is named after the market town seven miles from<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong>, and the first dual winner was appropriately also named Wokingham (1881 and<br />

1882). Over the years the race has developed a reputation as a fiercely competitive handicap and<br />

one of the major betting heats of the season.<br />

The Duke of Edinburgh Stakes (Handicap)<br />

Originally The Bessborough Stakes, named after the fifth Earl of Bessborough, who was Master<br />

of the Buckhounds between 1848 and 1866, the race was renamed The Duke Of Edinburgh<br />

Stakes in 1999. First run in 1914 as a five-furlong event for two-year-olds, it has now evolved<br />

into a middle distance handicap for three-year-olds and upward.<br />

The Queen Alexandra Stakes (Conditions)<br />

Run over the marathon trip of two-and-three-quarter miles, The Queen Alexandra Stakes is not<br />

only the longest race of the meeting, but also the longest contest run under flat racing rules.<br />

Named after the consort of King Edward VII, the race was first run in 1864 as The Alexandra<br />

Plate over three miles. It will always be associated with Brown Jack, arguably Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>’s<br />

greatest equine legend, who won this race on six consecutive occasions between 1929 and 1934.<br />

The Queen Alexandra Stakes always closes the meeting and although, or perhaps because of its<br />

extreme distance in a time when so much emphasis is on speed, it has become a national<br />

institution and is affectionately supported by regulars.<br />

30


SECURITY AND COMFORT<br />

FOR RESIDENTS AND VISITORS<br />

The racecourse is conscious that Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> affects people living in the area and continues to<br />

take steps to minimise inconvenience where possible.<br />

Car and coach parking plans are in place to stream as many people as possible from car parks to<br />

the course via routes on racecourse premises so as to reduce pedestrian congestion on the High<br />

Street. Pedestrian routes will be clearly signed.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong> and the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead (RBWM) are in constant<br />

communication on all issues relating to the Royal Meeting and produce a coordinated cleaning<br />

programme involving racecourse and council staff.<br />

The racecourse has a strong relationship with Thames Valley Police and the emergency services<br />

and works with them throughout the planning for Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

The security operation during Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is a joint venture between the police and <strong>Ascot</strong>’s own<br />

security staff. Among 6,000 staff on duty for every day of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, there will be 250 police<br />

personnel and 750 stewards and security staff on site.<br />

Regular patrols are made around all areas of the racecourse by security personnel and both<br />

uniformed and plain clothed police officers and quick response teams will be in place to react to<br />

any antisocial incident on any part of the racecourse.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> catering and bar staff can refuse to serve alcohol to anyone who appears to be intoxicated,<br />

and <strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong> security staff will stringently endeavour to prevent racegoers from leaving<br />

the racecourse with drinks purchased on site, in support of the alcohol ban on the High Street.<br />

The racecourse management is mindful that touts trading from areas close to the racecourse<br />

entrances can cause a nuisance. RBWM and <strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong>, supported by the police, work<br />

together to manage touts who are acting unreasonably or those who are persistently causing a<br />

nuisance or an obstruction. The Police and <strong>Ascot</strong> security teams will move touts on from the<br />

front of the turnstiles, and from all entrances and exits.<br />

Advice announcements will be made at <strong>Ascot</strong> Railway Station and by a mobile messaging unit<br />

recommending that visitors do not purchase tickets (or racecards) from touts or unofficial outlets.<br />

Notices will be placed on the Station Path and other approaches and RBWM enforcement<br />

officers will be present.<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong> has worked in partnership with South West Trains to increase the level of rail<br />

services provided during the busy periods at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in recent years.<br />

Additional services will be provided on the Thursday and Friday of the Royal Meeting, including<br />

an extended service through until 23.40hrs. On the Saturday, services will be available from<br />

10.00am until 23.40hrs, to ease transport congestion.<br />

DID YOU KNOW...?<br />

‣ Since Queen Anne founded <strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong> back in 1711, a further 11 monarchs have<br />

acceded to the British throne.<br />

‣ Mrs Gertrude Shilling was undeniably the premier indefatigable sartorial dame of <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

(nicknamed The <strong>Ascot</strong> Mascot), but she has met with competition from all over the world,<br />

including in 1976 when Australia’s Dame Edna Everage, alias Barry Humphries, attended<br />

with a four foot Sydney Opera House perched on “her” head. Following the successes of<br />

Choisir, Takeover Target, Miss Andretti and Scenic Blast on the track, Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is as<br />

much an institution in Australia as at home these days, but back then Dame Edna said to the<br />

assembled press that she: “wasn’t aware it was a racing event until the other day. I always<br />

thought it was an exhibition of gas water heaters!”<br />

‣ The wearing of Bowler Hats by the <strong>Ascot</strong> Stewards is one of the most endearing and defining<br />

sights of <strong>Ascot</strong>, and not just at the Royal Meeting. Ironically, given that the tradition is now<br />

so proudly protected and maintained by the longer serving stewards, the dress instruction was<br />

met with near mutiny when it was introduced in the late 1950s in an attempt to address<br />

slipping standards. The trustees had to give pay rises at the time to stop the staff striking over<br />

the issue. When the racecourse closed for redevelopment in 2004, one of the assurances that<br />

the management had to give at the time was that there were no plans to alter the much loved<br />

“uniform” when everyone returned in 2006.<br />

‣ Viscount Churchill was appointed as the first sovereign’s representative at <strong>Ascot</strong> in 1901. He<br />

is reputed to have taken personal charge of vetting applications for entrance into the Royal<br />

Enclosure, sorting letters into three baskets marked ‘Certainly’ ‘Perhaps’ and ‘Certainly Not.’<br />

Viscount Churchill loved this task and became notorious for recognising faces in the Royal<br />

Enclosure and challenging those who should not be there. For this purpose he was granted<br />

special access to the Divorce Registry, as those on it were not permitted access to the Royal<br />

Enclosure.<br />

‣ Many people were sympathetic to the <strong>Ascot</strong> Authority in June, 1964 after the Royal Meeting<br />

had to be curtailed due to severe rain, thus blighting the opening of the new Royal Enclosure<br />

Stand. None more so than the old lady who sent the Authority £1 because she was so<br />

distressed to hear of the course’s bad luck. The Duke of Norfolk, Her Majesty’s<br />

Representative at the time, responded with equal magnanimity, thanking the lady and inviting<br />

her to a day’s racing<br />

33


‣ In the days before actors were allowed in the Royal Enclosure, King Edward VII asked the<br />

actor Charles Hawtrey if he would be seeing him at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. Hawtrey explained that<br />

rules prevented it, whereupon the King took it upon himself personally to send Hawtrey the<br />

necessary badge. When <strong>Ascot</strong> came, Hawtrey entered the Enclosure to the great surprise of<br />

Lord Churchill, His Majesty’s Representative at <strong>Ascot</strong>, who said: “I don’t remember sending<br />

you a badge.” Hawtrey explained that this was not surprising as he hadn’t – “King Edward<br />

did!”<br />

‣ It is said that when Queen Anne was in residence at Windsor Castle, she imported a large<br />

quantity of green velour material from France, in which she dressed her “Yeoman Prickers,”<br />

who were armed with pikes to move people out of the way at the races! That particular<br />

practice doesn’t sit comfortably with the modern day customer service ethic but the outfits<br />

are remembered with today’s “Greencoats,” the ceremonial guard for The Queen at <strong>Ascot</strong>,<br />

wearing the livery.<br />

‣ In the early 1920s, Lord Lonsdale drove every day from his rented house adjoining the<br />

Winkfield Road crossing, up the High Street to the racecourse entrance with outriders, drivers<br />

and footmen, all wearing his distinctive yellow livery. The proceedings were so grand that<br />

critics claimed he was trying to rival the Royal Procession.<br />

‣ The Duke of Norfolk must have been dismayed to read in The Times and The Telegraph on<br />

April 27, 1971 that <strong>Ascot</strong> would permit ‘hot pants’ in the Royal Enclosure! The next day he<br />

corrected the misinformation in no uncertain terms.<br />

‣ Back in 1954, The Queen had a famous Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> triumph with the brilliant Aureole, who<br />

had suffered a minor eye injury a few days before the Meeting. When visiting the paddock<br />

just before the race, The Queen asked her jockey, Eph Smith, who wore a hearing-aid,<br />

whether he would win. The reply came: “Well, Ma’am, we are rather handicapped. The horse<br />

is blind in one eye and I’m deaf!”<br />

‣ King Edward VII’s mother, Queen Victoria, was known to have frowned upon her son’s<br />

general and unparalleled enthusiasm for good living and, of course, racing, but on his<br />

accession in 1901, the new King closed the Royal Stand completely for the Royal Meeting<br />

due to the death of his mother and requested that all those who attended within the Royal<br />

Enclosure wear black.<br />

‣ Due to the knock on effects of the General Election, the 2001 Royal Procession was restricted<br />

to two days as the horses and carriages were required to convey The Queen to Wesminster for<br />

34


the State Opening of Parliament on the Wednesday and had to be in place for a practice on<br />

Tuesday. The Royal Party, including The Queen, came by car on both days and arrived in<br />

time for racing.<br />

‣ Sir John Crocker Bulteel was Clerk of the Course from 1946 until his death in 1956. A figure<br />

of great importance in the history of <strong>Ascot</strong> <strong>Racecourse</strong>, Sir John Crocker Bulteel was known<br />

as an outstanding racing administrator but it was his love of racing that he is most famous for.<br />

It is due mainly to the dedication of Sir John that today <strong>Ascot</strong> stages more than just the Royal<br />

Meeting. The King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes, initially run as the Festival of<br />

Britain Stakes, was his brainchild. The race was first run in 1951 and did more than any other<br />

race to change the face of top-level racing in this country and, ultimately, the world. It<br />

promoted the cause of international inter-age competition and more often than not, its winner<br />

is the seasonal champion.<br />

‣ During the foot and mouth outbreak in 2001, the management suggested that ladies bear in<br />

mind the precautionary foot and mouth disinfectant mats on all entrances to the racecourse<br />

when considering their footwear. Not everyone listened which made for some interesting<br />

pictures in the likes of “Hello” and “Harpers” that year!<br />

‣ In 1964, Trelawny was to bid for a third consecutive <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes/Queen Alexandra Stakes<br />

double. He was beaten in The <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes but would have walked over in The Queen<br />

Alexandra on Friday had the meeting not been abandoned due to waterlogging. This is the<br />

answer to a question which appeared in the Racing Post Christmas quiz in 2001 and resulted<br />

in numerous calls to all departments at the racecourse!<br />

‣ In 2005, <strong>Ascot</strong> auctioned some 300 lots of memorabilia associated with the old stand. The<br />

auction raised £389,965 with Racing Welfare the primary beneficiary with the bulk of this<br />

coming from a bid of £280,000 for the wrought cast iron entranceway from the track to the<br />

winners’ enclosure, purchased by leading owner Bill Gredley. The crowd fell silent as the bid<br />

just kept going up and up from an original reserve of just £20,000 - £30,000!<br />

‣ Jockeys at <strong>Ascot</strong> are called to mount by a bell in the parade ring and, unique to <strong>Ascot</strong>, a bell is<br />

also rung as the horses swing into the straight for races run on the round course.<br />

‣ A familiar sight at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> is the arrival of horse-drawn carriages along the High Street,<br />

to the sound of hunting horns. These carriages belong to members of the country’s carriage<br />

clubs, who stable their horses during racing whilst they enjoy their club facilities on course<br />

prior to departure.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE QUEEN ANNE STAKES<br />

First run in 1840, the Queen Anne Stakes commemorates the monarch who established racing at <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

In the early summer of 1711, while being driven in a carriage from Windsor Castle, Queen Anne decided that <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

Heath would be a good place to establish a racecourse. A few weeks later, on August 11, 1711, the Royal Meeting was<br />

founded.<br />

Always run over a mile, the Queen Anne Stakes attracts the leading older milers from across Europe. The establishment<br />

of the Pattern race system for categorising the top events in 1971 saw the Queen Anne Stakes have Group Three<br />

status, before becoming Group Two in 1984 and then Group One in 2003. Between 1840 and 1929, it was run as the<br />

Trial Stakes. The first running went to the Duke of Rutland’s Flambeau, who also won the following year.<br />

Since the Second World War, the Queen Anne Stakes has been attracting milers of the highest calibre. Ichoir Boy ran<br />

in this prestigious event in the purple colours of The Queen in 1952, with Her Majesty having ascended to the throne<br />

in February that year. Unfortunately, the three-year-old, who would have been a most appropriate winner, ran dismally<br />

and was almost out of sight at the finish, provoking one racegoer to burst out laughing.<br />

An outraged Royal Meeting crowd strained their necks to see who the jovial offender was, only to find that it was Her<br />

Majesty herself who found the forlorn running of her charge so amusing.<br />

Lester Piggott rode his first Queen Anne victor on Sparkler in 1972 and then went on to win the race on a further three<br />

occasions with Baptism (1979), Belmont Bay (1981) and Mr Fluorocarbon (1982).<br />

A remarkable running in 1974 saw the first three horses home - Confusion, Gloss and Royal Perogative - disqualified<br />

for causing interference and the race was awarded to the Italian challenger Brook who passed the post in fourth for<br />

trainer Mario Benetti and jockey Brian Taylor, who also won on Ardoon (1976) and Jellaby (1977).<br />

In the early 1980s, trainer Henry Cecil made the race his own, winning four successive renewals from 1981 to 1984 with<br />

Belmont Bay, Mr Fluorocarbon, Valiyar and Trojan Fen.<br />

The great Warning was victorious in 1989, while the 1990 winner Markofdistinction, under a young Frankie Dettori, also<br />

went on to score at the course later in the season in the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, as did the 1992 hero<br />

Lahib.<br />

Barathea, triumphant in 1994, proved himself the best miler in the world that season when subsequently successful in<br />

the Grade One Breeders’ Cup Mile at Churchill Downs.<br />

Godolphin and Sir Michael Stoute dominated the Queen Anne Stakes in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The former<br />

was successful for four consecutive years with Charnwood Forest (1996), Allied Forces (1997), Intikhab (1998) and<br />

Cape Cross (1999), all trained by Saeed bin Suroor.<br />

From 2000 until 2002, the race went to Sir Michael’s charges. In 2000, Kalanisi scored prior to success in the Group<br />

One Champion Stakes at Newmarket and Breeders’ Cup Turf at Churchill Downs, while the 2001 winner Medicean went<br />

on to victory in the Group One Coral-Eclipse at Sandown. The trainer’s hat-trick was completed in 2002 by No Excuse<br />

Needed.<br />

Godolphin took spoils in 2004 as Dubai Destination stormed home to win by four lengths, while stable-companion and<br />

subsequent Coral-Eclipse victor Refuse To Bend prevailed by a neck from the star filly Soviet Song in 2004. A seventh<br />

win for the operation came in 2007 when Ramonti gamely held on in a thrilling four-way photo-finish for a short-head<br />

success in a course record of 1m 37.21s. Ramonti returned to <strong>Ascot</strong> that September to land the Group One Queen<br />

Elizabeth II Stakes.<br />

The 2005 renewal, run at York, saw French raider Valixir, trained by Andre Fabre, get the better of hot favourite Rakti<br />

by a length and a half while the Aidan O’Brien-trained Ad Valorem survived a stewards’ enquiry in 2006. O’Brien was<br />

once again on top in 2008 as the imposing former Australian star Haradasun, twice a Group One winner in his native<br />

land, proved redoubtable in holding the French filly Darjina by a head in a pulsating battle to the line.<br />

Paco Boy took the spoils in 2009, clinching the prize in fine style and the Richard Hannon-trained colt was unlucky to<br />

line up against French wonder mare Goldikova the following year. Freddy Head’s outstanding miler proved a neck too<br />

strong for the Paco Boy before going on to record an unprecedented third victory in the Grade One Breeders’ Cup Mile.<br />

Goldikova returned to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> for another crack at the Queen Anne Stakes last year but she could not repel the<br />

challenge of Canford Cliffs and went down by a length to the four-year-old, whose trainer Richard Hannon was gaining<br />

revenge for Paco Boy’s defeat 12 months earlier. Canford Cliffs was recording a third successive victory at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>,<br />

having annexed the Coventry Stakes as a juvenile and the St James’s Palace Stakes during his three-year-old<br />

campaign.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE KING’S STAND STAKES<br />

Bad weather played a crucial role in the origins of the King’s Stand Stakes. In 1860 heavy rain made it impossible for the twomile<br />

Royal Stand Plate to take place so the race was renamed the Queen’s Stand Plate and run over five furlongs, the only<br />

raceable part of the course. With the accession of King Edward VII in 1901, the race was renamed the King’s Stand but<br />

curiously did not revert to its original name when the present monarch Queen Elizabeth II came to the throne in 1952.<br />

The contest soon became the most important sprint of the Royal Meeting, with dual winners Sundridge (1903 and 1904) and<br />

Foresight (1908 and 1909) proving to be outstanding performers. Hornet’s Beauty, successful in 1911 and 1913, was another<br />

of the great victors, having triumphed in the Trial Stakes and the Fern Hill Stakes as well as the King’s Stand at the 1911 Royal<br />

Meeting. Other notable winners of the King’s Stand Stakes include 1,000 Guineas heroine Diadem, successful in 1919 and<br />

1920, and 2,000 Guineas victor Tetratema, who captured the sprint in 1921.<br />

Gold Bridge was arguably the finest winner in the inter-war years as the Major Vandy Beatty-trained colt triumphed in the King’s<br />

Stand in 1933 and 1934 and was also successful in the Granville Stakes at <strong>Ascot</strong> plus the Nunthorpe Stakes at York.<br />

Abernant proved to be another outstanding winner in 1949. The grey colt had made all to take the previous season’s Chesham<br />

Stakes at the Royal Meeting and was just touched off in the 2,000 Guineas earlier in the year. Trained by Noel Murless,<br />

Abernant went on to win the King George Stakes at Goodwood and Nunthorpe Stakes at York two years running and was just<br />

denied by Tangle in the 1950 King’s Stand Stakes. The 1957 King’s Stand victor Right Boy was a terrific sprinter, winning 16<br />

races in a glittering career which included dual successes in what is now the Diamond Jubilee Stakes (formerly the Golden<br />

Jubilee and before that the Cork & Orrery), the July Cup and the Nunthorpe Stakes. Song took the 1969 King’s Stand Stakes<br />

as a three-year-old by an impressive two and a half lengths, despite meeting trouble in running.<br />

The 1978 winner Solinus had a magnificent race record, winning eight of his 10 starts, including the Coventry Stakes at Royal<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> as a two-year-old. Trained by the great Vincent O’Brien, the colt became the fourth horse since the York’s Nunthorpe<br />

Stakes was first staged in 1922 to land the King’s Stand, the July Cup and the Nunthorpe Stakes in the same year, emulating<br />

the Mick Easterby-trained Lochnager two years earlier. Top-class filly Marwell won 10 races from 13 starts, including the 1981<br />

King’s Stand. She took the King’s Stand by two lengths before success in the July Cup and the Prix de l’Abbaye at Longchamp,<br />

while Never So Bold became the fifth horse to win the King’s Stand Stakes, the July Cup and the Nunthorpe in the same<br />

season in 1985.<br />

One of the greatest-ever sprinters, Dayjur won the 1991 King’s Stand Stakes and followed up by setting a course record in<br />

the Nunthorpe before victories in the Haydock Sprint Cup and the Prix de l’Abbaye. Elbio became the first horse since Gold<br />

Bridge to win two King’s Stand Stakes in 1993, while another six-year-old, the exceptional mare Lochsong, took the King’s<br />

Stand Stakes the following year en route to a second successive Prix de l’Abbaye.<br />

Pivotal, who has become an outstanding sire, captured the 1996 King’s Stand Stakes and became trainer Sir Mark Prescott’s<br />

first Group One winner when winning the Nunthorpe Stakes by a short-head on his final start.<br />

The King’s Stand was switched to the first day of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 2000, having been previously run on the Friday, and attracted<br />

a record field of 23. Nuclear Debate, trained in France by John Hammond, came with a late surge to deny the Japanesetrained<br />

Agnes World, and the gelding’s status as a top sprinter was confirmed with victory in the Nunthorpe Stakes.<br />

Choisir became the first Australian-trained horse to win in Britain when he led from start to finish in the 2003 King’s Stand<br />

Stakes. The Paul Perry-trained colt lined up in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes four days later and again made virtually all of the<br />

running to become the first horse since Stanerra in 1983 to win twice at the same Royal Meeting.<br />

The Australians returned with a vengeance three years later when the remarkable Takeover Target, trained by former taxi<br />

driver Joe Janiak, prevailed by a short-head, with compatriots Falkirk and Glamour Puss finishing fourth and seventh<br />

respectively. The winner was fourth behind Les Arcs in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes four days later. Takeover Target came<br />

back in 2007 to defend his crown and finished a gallant fourth behind the fellow Australian-trained Miss Andretti. The Lee<br />

Freedman-trained mare shaved two and a half seconds off the track record to win in 57.44s.<br />

The King’s Stand Stakes regained Group One status for 2008, having been a Group Two since 1988, and Takeover Target<br />

returned as a nine-year-old, only to fail by half a length as the Spanish-trained Equiano caused a 22/1 shock. The Aussie<br />

machine rolled into action for a fourth time in six years as the Danny Morton-trained Scenic Blast landed the 2009 contest from<br />

Fleeting Spirit.<br />

Equiano became the first horse since the outstanding Elbio to win two renewals of the King’s Stand Stakes when he made<br />

all of the running in 2010 to triumph for his handler Barry Hills, who had taken over the training of the sprinter the year before.<br />

Trainer Robert Cowell and <strong>Ascot</strong>-born jockey Jim Crowley both celebrated a first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success in 2011 as Prohibit<br />

stormed home to win by half a length. The international stature of the sprint was highlighted as five different racing jurisdictions<br />

filled the first five places with Australia (Star Witness), Hong Kong (Sweet Sanette), Hungary (Overdose) and Germany (War<br />

Artist) chasing home the Newmarket-trained winner.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE ST JAMES’S PALACE STAKES<br />

Named after the Tudor Royal residence, the inaugural running of the St James’s Palace Stakes in 1834 gave little indication of the<br />

high-quality fields that the race would later produce - while it attracted a Derby winner in Plenipotentiary, the colt was the only runner<br />

and consequently was allowed a walkover.<br />

A host of Derby winners have gone on to win the St James's Palace Stakes over a mile in more testing contests, including British<br />

Triple Crown winners Ormonde (1886), Rock Sand (1903) and Bahram (1935). The unbeaten Ormonde was an outstanding horse.<br />

He emerged victorious in the St James’s Palace Stakes and the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> on successive days, getting the<br />

better of the 1885 Derby winner Melton in the Hardwicke.<br />

No horse has ever won all five British Classics but Sceptre nearly achieved this incredible feat in 1902, only sustaining defeat in<br />

the Derby when going to Epsom one gallop short. She also ran in the Coronation Stakes at the Royal Meeting, finishing fourth, and<br />

then the following day won the St James's Palace Stakes when ridden by an apprentice.<br />

The Aga Khan III’s Bahram was never beaten and, as well as taking the Triple Crown, he won the 1935 St James’s Palace Stakes<br />

under a fine ride from Fred Fox, who had earlier partnered the son of Blandford in both the 2,000 Guineas and Derby but missed<br />

out on the St Leger due to a fall.<br />

In the post-war period, the Epsom graduates surrendered their dominance to the emerging category of thoroughbred, the mile<br />

specialist, and the St James’s Palace Stakes usually features colts that won or were placed in the English, Irish or French 2,000<br />

Guineas. Just such a horse was Tudor Minstrel in 1947. Having won the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket by eight lengths, prompting<br />

some to describe him as the 'horse of the century', he finished a leg-weary fourth in the Derby over an extra four furlongs. Reverting<br />

to a mile at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, the Fred Darling-trained three-year-old was the very easy winner.<br />

The great Brigadier Gerard added his name to the St James’s Palace Stakes roll of honour 24 years later when the race was a<br />

Group Two contest. He had earlier been successful in one of the best post-war renewals of the 2,000 Guineas that also featured<br />

Mill Reef and My Swallow. Bypassing the Derby because part-owner John Hislop did not believe that he would stay, ‘The Brigadier’<br />

led close home at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> to beat the Lester Piggott-ridden Sparkler by a head. Piggott did, however, win five St James’s<br />

Palace Stakes during his long and illustrious riding career. His successes came on Roan Rocket (1964), Petingo (1968), Thatch<br />

(1973), Jaazeiro (1978) and Bairn (1985).<br />

Despite the number of Guineas’ horses taking part, no British Classic winner, over a mile or a mile and a half, triumphed in the<br />

Group One race between To-Agori-Mou, winner of the 2,000 Guineas in 1981 and the mighty Rock Of Gibraltar in 2002, also<br />

successful in the Newmarket Classic.<br />

The St James’s Palace Stakes was upgraded to Group One status in 1988 when the Geoff Huffer-trained Persian Heights prevailed.<br />

The Alain de Royer-Dupre-trained Sendawar followed his 1999 French 2,000 Guineas success with St James's Palace glory, with<br />

the only other French-trained victor since 1946 being Kingmambo for Francois Boutin in 1993. Sendawar jointly headed the<br />

International Classifications with Dubai Millennium for three-year-olds in the seven-furlong plus category, while the 2000 winner<br />

Giant's Causeway was out on his own in the same division - 6lb ahead of his nearest rival.<br />

Black Minnaloushe, trained like Giant’s Causeway by Aidan O’Brien, took the Irish 2,000 Guineas in 2001 and then went on to<br />

success in this prestigious contest, beating Godolphin's Noverre by a neck in a thrilling finish. The 2002 hero Rock Of Gibraltar,<br />

who gave O’Brien his third consecutive victory and jockey Michael Kinane his fifth of six successes in the race, was rated the world’s<br />

best racehorse in the International Classifications.<br />

The 2005 renewal, which took place at York due to the redevelopment of <strong>Ascot</strong>, was won in decisive fashion by Godolphin's brilliant<br />

Shamardal, ridden by Kerrin McEvoy. The colt had previously won both the French 2,000 Guineas and French Derby and finished<br />

the year as the best miler of any age in Europe. The Jeremy Noseda-trained Araafa, conqueror of 2,000 Guineas hero George<br />

Washington in the Irish equivalent at the Curragh, added to that success with a commanding victory in the 2006 St James's Palace<br />

Stakes. In 2007, Excellent Art led home an Aidan O’Brien-trained 1-2-3 under a typically patient ride from Jamie Spencer.<br />

The 2008 renewal was out of the top drawer as O’Brien’s English and Irish 2,000 Guineas hero Henrythenavigator, winner of the<br />

2007 Coventry Stakes, held the John Gosden-trained Raven’s Pass by three quarters of a length. O’Brien’s charge saw his<br />

superiority reduced to a head in the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood next time before Raven’s Pass finally defeated his rival in the<br />

Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at <strong>Ascot</strong> in September. Raven’s Pass crowned a brilliant season with a famous triumph over<br />

Henrythenavigator and US champion Curlin in the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Santa Anita. O’Brien clinched his sixth St James’s<br />

Palace Stakes victory with Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Mastercraftsman in 2009. The success marked the second time that the<br />

trainer had landed three consecutive wins in the race.<br />

Coventry Stakes victor Canford Cliffs stayed on strongly to beat stable companion Dick Turpin in 2010 and give trainer Richard<br />

Hannon a 1-2 . The winner gained stunning victories in the Coventry Stakes at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 2009 and the Irish 2,000 Guineas<br />

earlier the same year. He followed up his St James’s Palace win with a cosy neck verdict over Rip Van Winkle in the Sussex Stakes<br />

at Glorious Goodwood and completed a rare hat-trick of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> wins with victory in the Queen Anne Stakes the following year.<br />

Frankel headed to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> last year on the back of an extraordinary six-length success in the 2000 Guineas and many expected<br />

a similarly devastating performance in the St James’s Palace Stakes. Sent off a red-hot 30/100 favourite, the Sir Henry Cecil-trained<br />

colt once again displayed himself as the best of his generation, although he had to be kept up to his work to fend off the late<br />

challenge of Zoffany to prevail by three-quarters of a length.<br />

Both Frankel and Canford Cliffs ran against each other in the Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood the following month, when<br />

Frankel easily dispatched his older rival, winning by five lengths, and Khalid Abdulla’s brilliant miler returned to <strong>Ascot</strong> in October<br />

to crown a superb season with another brilliant display, this time beating Excelebration by four lengths in the Queen Elizabeth II<br />

Stakes (Sponsored By QIPCO). He ended the season as the world’s best horse, with an official rating of 136.<br />

64.

A FULL HISTORY OF THE 150TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE<br />

PRINCE OF WALES’S STAKES<br />

The Prince of Wales’s Stakes was first run at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 1862, a year after the death of Prince Albert. The<br />

popular Prince of Wales (later to become King Edward VII) had taken over many of the social duties previously<br />

carried out by his mother, Queen Victoria, who continued to remain in mourning for her husband. In 2012, it will<br />

be run as the 150th Anniversary Of The Prince Of Wales's Stakes.<br />

In the early years, it was mainly three-year-olds who competed in the race, then run over one mile and five<br />

furlongs. It was quite common for horses to run in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes after having participated in one<br />

or more of the Classics.<br />

In 1879, Wheel Of Fortune won, having previously taken both the 1,000 Guineas and the Oaks - she was said<br />

by Fred Archer to have been the best filly he ever rode. In 1897, Galtee More succeeded after having won that<br />

year’s 2,000 Guineas and Derby.<br />

In the first half of the 20th century, it generally became rarer for horses of the Classic generation to run in the<br />

Prince of Wales’s Stakes. One very notable exception was the great Hyperion, who was successful in 1933, the<br />

same year that he won the Derby and St Leger.<br />

When racing resumed at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 1946 after the war, there was no Prince of Wales’s Stakes because<br />

George VI was on the throne and, as he had no male heirs, there was no Prince of Wales.<br />

The race did not take place again until 1968, a year before the current Prince of Wales’s investiture in 1969, with<br />

the distance changed to 10 furlongs. The 1968 victor was the previous year’s Derby winner Royal Palace.<br />

Since 1968, the Prince of Wales’s Stakes has been won by some very high-class horses - Brigadier Gerard in<br />

1972, Mtoto in 1987 and 1988, Bosra Sham in 1997 and Dubai Millennium in 2000, when the race was upgraded<br />

to Group One status for the first time and restricted to four-year-olds and older horses.<br />

Bosra Sham provided trainer Henry Cecil with his fifth Prince of Wales's Stakes success - following on from Lucky<br />

Wednesday (1977), Gunner B (1978), Perpendicular (1992) and Placerville (1993).<br />

Godolphin made the race its own around the turn of the century. Following Faithful Son’s victory in 1998, the<br />

Maktoum family’s operation won with Dubai Millennium, took the 2001 renewal with Fantastic Light and had three<br />

in a row when Grandera was successful in tremendous style in 2002.<br />

In 2003, Nayef, trained by Marcus Tregoning, ended the Godolphin winning streak while Rakti, runner-up in 2003,<br />

came good to score in scintillating style the following year. He returned to the course later in the season to land<br />

the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes.<br />

The 2005 Prince Of Wales’s Stakes was run at York and saw Azamour - who won the 2004 St James’s Palace<br />

Stakes - score an easy length and a half victory over Ace. The following month he landed another <strong>Ascot</strong> feature,<br />

the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes, which was run at Newbury during the revedelopment.<br />

A high-class renewal in 2006 went to the only female in the line-up, Ouija Board, one of the most talented and<br />

popular mares of recent years, who displayed a blistering turn of foot to score readily by half a length and three<br />

quarters of a length from Godolphin’s Electrocutionist and Manduro. Ouija Board went on to win the Breeders'<br />

Cup Filly & Mare Turf for the second time later that year before being retired.<br />

Manduro matured into a brilliant champion the following season, becoming the first French-trained winner of the<br />

race since Admetus in 1974. Trained by Andre Fabre, Manduro justified favouritism when defeating subsequent<br />

King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes and Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner Dylan Thomas. Manduro was<br />

rated the best horse according to the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings of 2007. Dylan Thomas’s trainer<br />

Aidan O’Brien added his name to the roll of honour when saddling Duke Of Marmalade to an impressive fourlength<br />

victory over Phoenix Tower in 2008. O’Brien’s charge returned to <strong>Ascot</strong> to win the King George VI & Queen<br />

Elizabeth Stakes on his next start when the four-year-old notched five Group One victories in a row.<br />

Two years after Manduro, the French enjoyed another victory in 2009 when the previous year’s Prix du Jockey<br />

Club hero Vision D’Etat swept from the rear to lead close home under Olivier Peslier for trainer Eric Libaud, and<br />

the Gallic domination continued in 2010 as the Andre Fabre-trained Byword beat Twice Over by half a length,<br />

giving owner Khalid Abdulla a 1-2 in the process.<br />

Many anticipated that five-time Australian Group One winner So You Think would further enhance his reputation<br />

with victory in last year’s Prince Of Wales’s Stakes. But the Aidan O’Brien-trained five-year-old was collared near<br />

the line by Rewilding, who took the spoils by a neck and gave Godolphin handler Mahmood Al Zarooni a first<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> victory in the process. But tragedy struck the winner on his very next start as he broke a leg in the<br />

King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at <strong>Ascot</strong> the following month.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE GOLD CUP<br />

Founded in 1807, the Gold Cup is one of the most prestigious races at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. At two miles and four furlongs, it thoroughly tests a<br />

horse’s stamina but is not the longest contest of the meeting, with that accolade going to the Queen Alexandra Stakes, over two miles<br />

and six furlongs, which is the last event on the final day.<br />

Master Jackey became the first horse to win the Gold Cup when, carrying only 6st 12lb, he beat three runners and thus collected 100<br />

guineas in prize money for owner Mr Durand.<br />

Jannette, who triumphed at 4/5 in 1811, was the first odds-on winner. Numerous horses have gone off at prohibitive odds since, none<br />

shorter than Gay Crusader who won at 8/100 in 1917. Because of the First World War, that Gold Cup was run at Newmarket where<br />

Gainsborough, successful the following year, also scored. Pretty Polly’s defeat by Bachelor’s Button in 1906 is arguably the race’s greatest<br />

upset. The brilliant 1904 Oaks winner seemed to be unsettled by the sweltering conditions and a wart on her belly.<br />

Winners of the Derby rarely run in the Gold Cup nowadays, but for much of its history, the race served as the primary objective after<br />

Epsom Classic glory. West Australian, the first winner of the Triple Crown (2,000 Guineas, Derby, St Leger), won at 4/6 in the hands of<br />

Alfred Day in 1854. The Flying Dutchman (1850), Gladiateur (1866) and Isinglass (1895) are other famous winners of both races. Ocean<br />

Swell, successful in 1945, is the last horse to have completed the Derby/Gold Cup double.<br />

The Second World War saw the Gold Cup again transferred to Newmarket from 1941 - 44. Gordon Richards captured a hat-trick of Gold<br />

Cups in the war years with Owen Tudor (1942), Ujiji (1943) and Umiddad (1944). The 26-times champion jockey lifted the prize on two<br />

other occasions during his long and distinguished career.<br />

Zarathustra in 1957 provided the first of 11 victories for Lester Piggott and ‘the maestro’ almost made the race his own throughout the<br />

1970s. Sagaro, ridden by Piggott and trained in France by Francois Boutin, saved his best for <strong>Ascot</strong>, winning three times between 1975<br />

and 1977.<br />

Many horses have distinguished themselves with multiple Gold Cup wins, enhancing the race’s reputation as a specialist’s event.<br />

Anticipation, victorious in 1816 and then again in 1819, first achieved the feat. Bizarre, triumphant in 1824 and 1825, was the first to<br />

successfully defend the Cup.<br />

Yeats, who was successful in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, created history by becoming the first four-time winner. Le Moss (1979 & 80),<br />

Ardross (1981 & 82) and Kayf Tara (1998 & 2000) also stand out as great winners, the first two were trained by Henry Cecil, who retains<br />

particular affection for the staying event, while Kayf Tara represented Godolphin and trainer Saeed bin Suroor, also responsible for the<br />

1996 winner Classic Cliche. Kayf Tara gained a creditable third in 1999 between his two victories.<br />

Before Kayf Tara, Drum Taps, who helped put Frankie Dettori at the forefront of British racing, was another dual winner in 1992 and 1993.<br />

Celeric’s victory in 1997 was an outstanding performance by the horse and his jockey Pat Eddery. The five-year-old, who was trying two<br />

and a half miles for the first time, was produced with a great late run to beat Classic Cliche by three quarters of a length. Sadly, David<br />

Morley, trainer of the winner, died in January, 1998, and the gelding went on to be trained by John Dunlop.<br />

The thrilling 1998 Gold Cup, won by Kayf Tara, had 16 runners - then the biggest field in the history of the race. The previous record was<br />

13 in 1910, 1929, 1950, 1988 and 1997. The record was broken again in 1999 when 17 runners went to post and the John Oxx-trained<br />

colt Enzeli gave Ireland a first victory since Seamus McGrath saddled Levmoss in 1969.<br />

Trainer Mark Johnston, successful in the 1995 Gold Cup with Double Trigger, won the race for a second time in 2001 when Royal Rebel,<br />

owned by then British Horseracing Board chairman Peter Savill, beat Persian Punch by a head in a tremendous battle. A year later another<br />

fine effort from the enigmatic Royal Rebel saw him fend off Irish challenger and favourite Vinnie Roe by a neck and become another dual<br />

scorer. Mr Dinos triumphed in good style in 2003, beating the fondly-remembered Persian Punch by six lengths, while there was a fourth<br />

success for Godolphin in 2004 with Papineau, who came home a length and a half clear of French raider Westerner.<br />

Westerner went one better a year later, when the race took place at York, coming with a well-timed run under Olivier Peslier to deny<br />

Distinction by a neck. Westerner proved his versatility in fine style later in the season when only finding Hurricane Run too good in the<br />

Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe over a mile shorter.<br />

The great Yeats proved indefatigable in the Gold Cup and, having joined Sagaro as the only three-time winner of the race when slamming<br />

Geordieland by five lengths in 2008, he went one better by posting an unprecedented fourth success in 2009. He had defeated<br />

Geordieland by a length and a half in 2007 and saw off French challenger Reefscape to land his initial success in 2006. Yeats was in<br />

imperious form at <strong>Ascot</strong> in 2009 as he crushed Patkai and left Geordieland a distant third. The great horse earned a deserved retirement<br />

after finishing a fine third in the Prix du Cadran at Longchamp in October. His career successes also included two Goodwood Cups, a<br />

Prix Royal Oak, an Irish St Leger and a Coronation Cup.<br />

Dermot Weld had already proved himself adept at readying stayers for the big occasions with six Irish St Legers and a pair of Melbourne<br />

Cups to his name and the Irish handler enjoyed a first success in the Gold Cup in 2010 with the progressive Rite Of Passage. The six-yearold<br />

had previously twice finished third at the Cheltenham Festival and continued his 100 per cent record on the Flat with a game neck<br />

victory over Age Of Aquarius, setting a new track record of 4m 16.92s.<br />

Two years after Yeats, Aidan O’Brien captured a fifth Gold Cup with Fame And Glory. The five-year-old had already proved himself one<br />

of Europe’s best middle-distance performers with victories in the Irish Derby and the Coronation Cup and he took the step up to two and<br />

a half miles in his stride to beat Opinion Poll by three lengths under Jamie Spencer.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE CORONATION STAKES<br />

First run in 1840, the Coronation Stakes, the highlight of the Friday of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>, was founded to commemorate the crowning<br />

of Queen Victoria in 1838. The mile event for three-year-olds became the fillies’ equivalent of the St James’s Palace Stakes and<br />

established itself as a natural progression for fillies who had run creditably in the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket earlier in the season.<br />

The inaugural running went to the Lord Albemarle-owned Spangle, while the first filly to complete the 1,000 Guineas/Coronation<br />

Stakes double was the Jos Dawson-trained Lady Augusta in 1863.<br />

The Peter Purcell Gilpin-trained Pretty Polly, who was bred by her owner Major Eustace Loder, completed the same feat in 1904,<br />

but she also managed to capture the Oaks and the St Leger. She retired as the winner of 22 races from 24 starts.<br />

The race now attracts the principal protagonists from the English, Irish and French 1,000 Guineas, although it has not always been<br />

a particularly happy hunting ground for the winners of the British fillies’ Classic - Ghanaati in 2009, Attraction in 2004 and Russian<br />

Rhythm in 2003 won both contests but before that One In A Million in 1979 was the previous filly to follow up Newmarket Guineas<br />

success with a Coronation Stakes win.<br />

Even so, Coronation Stakes winners Tolmi (1981), Al Bahathri (1985), Sonic Lady (1986), Milligram (1987), Marling (1992) ,<br />

Exclusive (1998) and Maids Causeway (2005) were all placed in the 1,000 Guineas.<br />

Winners of the Irish 1,000 Guineas have fared better with recent Coronation Stakes scorers Cairn Rouge (1980), Katies (1984),<br />

Al Bahathri (1985), Sonic Lady (1986), Kooyonga (1991), Marling (1992), Ridgewood Pearl (1995), Crimplene (2000) and Attraction<br />

(2004) all taking the Curragh Classic before coming to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

Ridgewood Pearl, trained by John Oxx in Ireland and ridden by Johnny Murtagh, progressed to defeat the colts in both the Prix<br />

Moulin and Breeders' Cup Mile, while Crimplene went on to complete a Group One treble for Newmarket handler Clive Brittain in<br />

the Nassau Stakes at Goodwood in August.<br />

The mile race was promoted from Group Two status to Group One in 1988.<br />

Rebecca Sharp became the biggest-priced winner in the distinguished history of the Coronation Stakes when obliging at 25/1 in<br />

1997. The Anthony Oppenheimer-Geoff Wragg partnership, responsible for Rebecca Sharp, had further success in 1999 when<br />

Balisada came with a strong run to score at 16/1.<br />

The 2001 heroine Banks Hill, trained by Andre Fabre in France, went on to win the Breeders’ Cup Filly And Mare Turf at Belmont<br />

Park. The French have a fair record in the Coronation Stakes, having had eight successes since 1956 when Midget II won for owner<br />

Pierre Wertheimer and trainer Alec Head under Australian jockey Rae Johnstone.<br />

The 2002 season saw the Michael Kinane-ridden Sophisticat give Ireland’s champion trainer Aidan O’Brien his first Coronation<br />

Stakes success. The Irish roll of honour has reached 10 victories since 1962 when Paddy Prendergast saddled the Garnet<br />

Bougoure-ridden Display to win.<br />

Russian Rhythm triumphed in 2003 for trainer Sir Michael Stoute and owner Cheveley Park Stud, who had also won with Exclusive<br />

in 1998. The Newmarket-based handler was also responsible for sending out Sonic Lady and Milligram to score in successive years<br />

in 1986 and 1987.<br />

The 2004 race provided the Mark Johnston-trained Attraction with the third of her four Group One wins during the season under<br />

Kevin Darley.<br />

The 2005 Coronation Stakes (run at York due to redevelopment work taking place at <strong>Ascot</strong>) had a thrilling finish as Maids Causeway<br />

gamely got the better of Karen's Caper after a fantastic duel in the closing stages.<br />

Nannina, trained by John Gosden, put her disappointing effort on soft ground in the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket behind her with<br />

an emphatic success in 2006, proving two lengths too good for Flashy Wings. The 2007 1,000 Guineas fifth Indian Ink gave trainer<br />

Richard Hannon, jockey Richard Hughes and owner Raymond Tooth a first Coronation Stakes victory when showing a sparkling<br />

turn of foot to leave her rivals for dead.<br />

Lush Lashes proved something of a throw-back to the winners of the past as the versatile filly headed to <strong>Ascot</strong> after winning the<br />

10-furlong Musidora Stakes at York and disappointing in the Oaks. She scored an impressive victory in the Coronation Stakes for<br />

trainer Jim Bolger before an unlucky run saw her finish second in the mile-and-a-quarter Nassau Stakes at Goodwood. A Yorkshire<br />

Oaks victory over a mile and a half preceded a further triumph at a mile in the Group One Matron Stakes at Leopardstown.<br />

Ghanaati became the latest 1,000 Guineas heroine to add the Coronation Stakes to her big race wins in 2009 as the filly stormed<br />

clear of a top-class field to give trainer Barry Hills a second success in the race, while Aidan O’Brien also celebrated a second<br />

victory in 2010 as Lillie Langtry ran on well to comfortably beat fellow Irish challenger Gile Na Greine.<br />

Last year’s Coronation Stakes proved to be something of a family affair as Robert Collet sent out Immortal Verse to beat Nova<br />

Hawk, trained by his son Rodolphe, The winner subsequently claimed the notable scalp of Goldikova in the Prix Jacques Le Marois<br />

at Deauville prior to coming home third behind Frankel in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (Sponsored By QIPCO) on QIPCO British<br />

Champions Day at <strong>Ascot</strong> in October.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE DIAMOND JUBILEE STAKES<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>’s most prestigious sprint will be run as the Diamond Jubilee Stakes from 2012 in recognition of Her Majesty Queen<br />

Elizabeth II’s ascension to throne in 1952. It was elevated to Group One status to celebrate the Queen’s Golden Jubilee in 2002<br />

and run as the Golden Jubilee Stakes from 2002 - 2011. Prior to 2002, the contest was run as the Cork & Orrery Stakes.<br />

The inaugural running in 1868 of this six-furlong contest, originally named after Lord Cork, a Master of the Buckhounds, was won<br />

by a horse called Laneret, ridden by George Fordham. Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> specialist, the Harvey Leader-trained Diomedes, was successful<br />

in the 1926 renewal, having won two races including the King’s Stand Stakes at the Royal Meeting the previous year.<br />

There has been one three-time winner, Prince Charlie (1872, 1873 and 1874), and five dual winners - Lowlander (1875 and 1876),<br />

Whitefriar (1886 and 1887), Hornet’s Beauty (1913 and 1914), Hamlet (1923 and 1924) and Right Boy (1958 and 1959). The latter,<br />

ridden by Lester Piggott on both occasions, was trained for his first victory by Malton-based Bill Dutton and then by his son-in-law<br />

Pat Rohan, who took over the licence following Dutton’s death. Rohan and Piggott also won the 1960 race with Tin Whistle.<br />

In 1951, the year of the Festival of Britain, Australian jockey Neville Sellwood had an amazing Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in his first season in<br />

Britain, gaining four victories, including the Diamond Jubilee Stakes on board the Lord Sefton-owned Bob Cherry.<br />

Many consider the late Vincent O’Brien to be the greatest racehorse trainer in the history of this illustrious sport and the Irish handler<br />

was successful on five occasions with Welsh Saint (1970), Saritamer (1974), Swingtime (1975), Thatching (1979) and College<br />

Chapel (1993). All bar Swingtime, the mount of Willie Carson, were ridden by Lester Piggott, who was 57 when winning on College<br />

Chapel, a final Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> victory for both trainer and jockey. O’Brien is the most successful trainer in the race followed by Joe<br />

Dawson, who won four of the five renewals between 1870 and 1874, and John Porter, who notched up four successes between<br />

1884 and 1895. Among current trainers, Richard Hannon and Dermot Weld have both won the race twice.<br />

Piggott is the most successful rider with nine successes (between 1958 and 1993), followed by Fred Archer on six (1878 to 1886),<br />

Morny Cannon (1893 to 1898), Steve Donoghue (1920 to 1935) and Willie Carson (1972 to 1996) on five wins, and Sir Gordon<br />

Richards on four (1949 to 1954). With three winners, Johnny Murtagh is the most successful current jockey.<br />

The then 19-year-old Walter Swinburn began what was to be a memorable day for his family in 1981 by winning the Diamond<br />

Jubilee Stakes on the Reg Hollinshead-trained The Quiet Bidder. Later on the same afternoon his father, Wally, went on to take<br />

the Norfolk Stakes for Irish trainer Dermot Weld on Day Is Done. The 1989 winner Danehill, who was trained for Khalid Abdulla by<br />

Jeremy Tree, went on to win the Haydock Sprint Cup and became one of the world’s top stallions. He was the perennial champion<br />

sire in Australasia and was posthumously Europe’s champion sire in 2007.<br />

Six of the last 10 winners have all gone in at double-figure prices, but the beginning of the nineties was a golden era for favourites<br />

with four ‘jollies’ or joint-favourites winning between 1991 and 1994. During this period, Shalford struck for Richard Hannon in 1992<br />

and the East Everleigh-based handler gained his second success in 1999 with Bold Edge.<br />

The 2001 renewal was won by the Roger Charlton-trained Harmonic Way who clearly loved sprinting at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> as he was also<br />

successful in the previous year’s Wokingham Stakes. The first Group One running in 2002 saw a terrific training performance by<br />

John Gosden, who nursed the fragile Malhub back to full fitness to score a 16/1 success.<br />

Choisir, trained in Australia by Paul Perry and the mount of Johnny Murtagh, won in 2003 from Airwave to complete a remarkable<br />

double, having landed the five-furlong King’s Stand Stakes on the opening day. In 2004, Fayr Jag confirmed his liking for <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

when he followed up his success in the 2003 Wokingham Stakes by beating Crystal Castle a head.<br />

The 2005 running at York was the second British leg of the Global Sprint Challenge and the Hong Kong raider Cape Of Good Hope,<br />

third the previous year, was victorious.<br />

Les Arcs, a 33/1 shot, held off the late rattle of 50/1 outsider Balthazaar’s Gift to score by a neck in 2006, with Australian challenger<br />

Takeover Target, victorious in the King’s Stand Stakes four days earlier, a gallant third. The victory provided rookie trainer Tim Pitt<br />

with his first Group One success. Takeover Target was denied again in 2007, when the Jeremy Noseda-trained Soldier’s Tale dug<br />

deep to snatch the victory from the Australian challenger by a head.<br />

The Aussie raider returned in 2008 and, having finished runner-up in the King’s Stand Stakes earlier in the week, was sent off the<br />

4/1 favourite. However, it was the John Best-trained Kingsgate Native, well beaten in the King’s Stand Stakes on the Tuesday, who<br />

landed the spoils from War Artist, with Takeover Target a gallant fourth. The three-year-old winner had won the Group One<br />

Nunthorpe Stakes as a juvenile and was the first of his age to score since Atraf in 1996.<br />

Having waited so long for a three-year-old victor, another came along in 2009 when the previous year’s Coventry Stakes winner<br />

Art Connoisseur held on by a neck from the late thrust of American challenger Cannonball with the South African-trained 5/2<br />

favourite J J The Jet Plane in fourth and Hong Kong sprint ace Sacred Kingdom in fifth.<br />

Another cosmopolitan field contested the 2010 Diamond Jubilee Stakes with challengers from as far afield as the USA, Hong Kong<br />

and Australia. Starspangledbanner had already proved himself to be one of the top performers in Australia with a pair of Group One<br />

victories to his name before being shipped to Ireland in the spring of 2010 to continue his career in the hands of Aidan O’Brien. The<br />

four-year-old emulated his sire Choisir with a blistering all-the-way success under Johnny Murtagh and went on to score another<br />

pillar-to-post victory in the Group One Darley July Cup at Newmarket the following month.<br />

Society Rock filled the runner-up spot behind Starspangledbanner in 2010 but the James Fanshawe-trained colt went one place<br />

better in 2011, beating Monsieur Chevalier by half a length, with Australian challenger Star Witness taking third to add to his second<br />

in the King’s Stand Stakes five days earlier.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE ROYAL HUNT CUP<br />

The Royal Hunt Cup is not only one of the major betting races of the season, but has also established itself as<br />

a tremendous spectacle. The inaugural running in 1843 was won decisively by Knight Of Whistle, ridden by Nat<br />

Flatman, but behind that pair raged a desperate battle for second place between Garry Owen, Epaulette and<br />

Bourra Tomacha - the judge could not split them and eventually awarded a triple dead-heat for the runner-up<br />

position.<br />

In 1881, the Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> crowd witnessed an incredible performance by the brilliant, if temperamental, Peter.<br />

Starting as 100/30 favourite, Peter proceeded to all but pull himself up during the early stages of the race. His<br />

jockey Fred Archer displayed great horsemanship and, after a tender ride, coaxed his mount into delivering a<br />

devastating run. Peter was tailed off approaching the home turn but flew up the straight to land the spoils.<br />

With a strong ante-post market assured, the Royal Hunt Cup has long been the subject of heavy gambles and<br />

two enormous touches were landed at the turn of the last century. Prior to the 1900 running, Royal Flush had<br />

shown form only in minor races and appeared to be out of his depth. But his trainer, Enoch Wishard, had<br />

perfected the technique of doping and was able to induce the necessary improvement. Royal Flush landed the<br />

gamble and netted a fortune for his unscrupulous American owners.<br />

The next significant tilt at the ring was executed by the infamous Druid's Lodge Confederacy. Lally, one of the<br />

greatest horses ever trained at Druid's Lodge, was thought to be a certainty for the 1906 Derby at Epsom over<br />

a mile and a half, and was backed down to favouritism. Unable to stay the trip, he was prepared for the 1907<br />

Royal Hunt Cup, which he won defeating Andover by half a length. In 1919, revelling in post-war relief, thousands<br />

of punters latched onto the hugely popular Irish Elegance, forcing him to start the 7/1 joint-favourite. The result<br />

was never in doubt as Irish Elegance defied a burden of 9st 11lb for a famous victory.<br />

One of the most pulsating finishes ever seen in the Royal Hunt Cup occurred in 1954, when Chivalry defeated<br />

top-weight King Of The Tudors by a short-head. That year also marked the last time that the race was run over<br />

a trip of seven furlongs and 155yds. The course was re-aligned and a straight mile laid out in time for the 1955<br />

meeting. In more recent times, Old Lucky (1974), backed from 12/1 into 8/1, and Tender Heart (1980), sent off<br />

second favourite at 13/2, have both landed substantial gambles. Buzzards Bay, victorious in 1982, went on to win<br />

the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at <strong>Ascot</strong> later that season.<br />

The colours of Her Majesty the Queen were carried to victory in 1992 when Colour Sergeant, making his seasonal<br />

debut, held off 30 rivals under David Harrison. Donna Viola’s fourth in the 1996 Royal Hunt Cup was a prelude<br />

to even greater things, because she won the Grade One Yellow Ribbon Stakes at Santa Anita that November.<br />

French ace Olivier Peslier provided Reg Akehurst, in the final season of a distinguished training career, with a<br />

success in one of the few major handicaps to have previously eluded him when partnering the 16/1 shot Red<br />

Robbo to victory in 1997.<br />

Fly To The Stars, favourite in 1998 to defy 9st 11lb, could not cope with 20/1 chance Refuse To Lose but went<br />

on to success in three Group races culminating in the Group One Lockinge Stakes at Newbury in 1999,<br />

demonstrating what a competitive race the Royal Hunt Cup is. Showboat, the runaway six-length winner in 1999,<br />

gave jockey Neil Pollard his first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success.<br />

The James Bethell-trained Mine was triumphant in 2004, following up on his earlier <strong>Ascot</strong> success in that<br />

season’s Victoria Cup, while the change of venue to York a year later certainly did not inconvenience the Clive<br />

Cox-trained New Seeker, who added the Royal Hunt Cup to his two wins at <strong>Ascot</strong>.<br />

James Fanshawe, previously successful with Macadamia in 2003, captured his second Royal Hunt Cup in 2006<br />

with Cesare, who was brought with a well-timed run by Jamie Spencer to collar Stronghold and record a neck<br />

victory. The latter’s trainer John Gosden gained compensation 12 months later when he saddled Royal Oath to<br />

score a comprehensive four-length success, the biggest winning margin since Showboat’s six-length victory in<br />

1999.<br />

Richard Hannon enjoyed his first Royal Hunt Cup victory in 2008 with 25/1 chance Mr Aviator. The well-backed<br />

4/1 favourite Forgotten Voice, trained by Jeremy Noseda, prevailed for owner Susan Roy, wife of the British<br />

Horseracing Authority chairman Paul, in 2009.<br />

The application of blinkers worked the oracle on Invisible Man in 2010 as the Godolphin four-year-old scythed<br />

through the field to score under Frankie Dettori at odds of 28/1, while Walter Swinburn celebrated a first Royal<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> as a trainer with Julienas in last year’s race but retired from training at the end of the 2011 season.<br />

A FULL HISTORY OF THE WOKINGHAM STAKES<br />

The inaugural Wokingham took place in 1813, making it the oldest of the handicaps still run at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. The famous<br />

sprint is named after the market town seven miles from the Royal course.<br />

The attraction of a handicap as a betting medium was a prime reason for the Wokingham's initial success. Pointers, the first<br />

winner, was owned by the Duke of York.<br />

Fred Archer was riding at the top of his form at the 1878 meeting, partnering 11 winners including Trappist in the<br />

Wokingham. A dual winner during the same period was the aptly-named Wokingham, successful in 1881 and 1882.<br />

The Wokingham Stakes of 1902 saw a first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success for Jack Joel, the diamond millionaire, with His Lordship.<br />

However, the race was considered a farce after the starting tape broke and 10 horses, including the favourite Vatel, did not<br />

take part. The stewards took no action as they were satisfied all horses were behind the barrier when it was released.<br />

Jack Jarvis trained the first of many winners at the Royal meeting when Golden Orb won the Wokingham in 1920, and struck<br />

again in 1935 with Theio. A year later, Jack's brother, Basil, trained Periosteum to win the Gold Cup.<br />

Sam Armstrong, whose father had won the 1888 <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes with Dan Dancer, trained Bold Ben to win the Wokingham<br />

in 1938 from his Middleham base. He was later responsible for the tutelage of Willie Carson.<br />

Irish punters took some £50,000 out of the betting ring in 1946 when The Bug won the Wokingham at 7/1. A notable feature<br />

of the Royal meeting in 1949 was seven wins for Gordon Richards, with three provided by trainer Noel Murless including<br />

The Cobbler, who defied the burden of top-weight and 34 rivals in the Wokingham.<br />

Backers were left empty-handed in 1955 when a widespread gamble from 8/1 to 4/1 concerning Aberlady, runner-up to Meld<br />

in the 1000 Guineas, failed to come off. In 1969, at the age of 17, Pat Eddery rode his initial Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winner in the<br />

Wokingham, claiming 7lb on Sky Rocket, just two months after riding his first winner.<br />

A record weight of 10st was carried by the Robert Sangster-owned Boone's Cabin when winning the Wokingham in 1975<br />

under Lester Piggott, who rode eight winners from 22 rides at the Royal meeting that year.<br />

Astrac, successful at 14/1 in 1995, provided the ‘handicap king’, trainer Reg Akehurst, with a first Wokingham Stakes. The<br />

win came 22 years after Akehurst’s first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success - Doleswood in the 1973 Coventry Stakes.<br />

A massive gamble on the Michael Tabor-owned Danetime, who started 7/1 favourite, narrowly failed in 1997 when the threeyear-old,<br />

ridden by American jockey Gary Stevens, was beaten a head by Selhurstpark Flyer, who a year later became the<br />

first horse since Concerto (1932 and 1933) to win the Wokingham Stakes twice.<br />

The 2000 renewal was won by the Roger Charlton-trained Harmonic Way, who was given an excellent tactical ride by<br />

Richard Hughes to come from last to first to score by a length, while the 2001 winner Nice One Clare gave the late Pip Payne<br />

his first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success. The quality of the Wokingham was emphasised when the Mukaddamah mare returned to<br />

<strong>Ascot</strong> in September to land the Group Two Diadem Stakes.<br />

In the 2002 season, the Wokingham moved to the Saturday of Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> and fell to Capricho, trained by John Akehurst<br />

whose father Reg had been successful with Astrac in 1995. The following year saw a dead-heat between Fayr Jag and Ratio,<br />

who set a new record time of 1m 12.18s for <strong>Ascot</strong>’s six furlongs between them. It was the first dead-heat at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

since 1994.<br />

The Yorkshire-based sprint specialist David Nicholls recorded his first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success when 6/1 favourite Lafi took the<br />

spoils in 2004, while the 2005 victor at York was Iffraaj. He went off a red-hot 9/4 favourite and won by two lengths for trainer<br />

Michael Jarvis and jockey Philip Robinson.<br />

Baltic King turned in a cracking effort to land the 2006 running under 9st 10lb, showing a tremendous burst of speed to settle<br />

matters inside the final furlong, scoring by a length and a half from Firenze.<br />

Dark Missile, who had this race as a target for some time, landed the spoils in 2007 at 22/1 for trainer Andrew Balding under<br />

then 5lb claimer William Buick<br />

Scottish trainer Linda Perratt enjoyed a first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> triumph in 2008 when Big Timer saw off the Eve Johnson Houghtontrained<br />

Beaver Patrol by half a length. The pair were separated by the width of the track with the winner drawn 28 and the<br />

runner-up starting from stall 2. In 2009, the winner, the William Haggas-trained High Standing, came from stall 28, while the<br />

runner-up Asset was drawn alongside in stall 27 and the third, Rock Of Rochelle, came from berth 25.<br />

Laddies Poker Two had been off the racecourse for 610 days but punters certainly had faith in the five-year-old as she was<br />

heavily gambled throughout the week and was sent off a red-hot 9/2 favourite in 2010. She duly took the spoils in emphatic<br />

style, beating Striking Spirit by two and a half lengths, to give trainer Jeremy Noseda another notable handicap success<br />

at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> following Forgotten Voice’s victory in the Royal Hunt Cup 12 months earlier.<br />

Trainer James Fanshawe enjoyed a dream 40 minutes at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 2011 as Deacon Blues took the Wokingham<br />

Handicap to add to the success of Society Rock in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes just beforehand. Deacon Blues went on<br />

to record four further victories last year, culminating with a ready success in the Group Two QIPCO British Champions<br />

Series Sprint on QIPCO British Champions Day at <strong>Ascot</strong> in October.<br />

ROYAL ASCOT RIDING LEGENDS<br />

Lester Piggott - Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> wins: 116<br />

Lester Piggott is undeniably one of the greatest of all jockeys and his Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> record bears that out. His first win at the meeting<br />

came in the 1952 Wokingham aboard the Walter Nightingall-trained Malka’s Boy. The “Longfellow” went on to be associated with some<br />

of the greatest horses to have graced Royal <strong>Ascot</strong>. His remarkable 11 Gold Cup victories included three on the legendary Sagaro,<br />

one atop Le Moss and a brace in tandem with Ardross. At the other end of the distance spectrum, Piggott took the 1952 King’s Stand<br />

Stakes on Right Boy and partnered the champion sprinter to Cork And Orrery successes in 1953 and 1954. Others of note include<br />

the imperious Petite Etoile in the 1961 Rous Memorial Stakes and St Paddy in the same year’s Hardwicke Stakes. Of Piggott’s 116<br />

wins at the meeting, he rode 18 apiece for Noel Murless and Vincent O’Brien. His final Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> win came aboard the latter’s<br />

College Chapel in the 1993 Cork And Orrery Stakes. Piggott rode the first winner of his career in 1948 and he is associated with a host<br />

of equine superstars, most notably Crepello, St Paddy, Sir Ivor, Park Top, Nijinsky, Rheingold, Dahlia, The Minstrel, Alleged,<br />

Commanche Run, Royal Academy and his final Classic winner, Rodrigo De Triano. He retired in 1995 with a career total of 4,493 wins<br />

that resulted in 11 jockeys’ championships.<br />

Pat Eddery - Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> Wins: 73<br />

The Michael Pope-trained Sky Rocket gave Pat Eddery his first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> victory in the 1969 Wokingham and his 73rdsuccess came<br />

33 years later on Romantic Liason in the 2002 Queen Mary Stakes. Between times, Eddery forged a reputation as one of the greatest<br />

riders of the post-war period. Champion jockey 11 times and the winner of every Classic in England and Ireland, as well as a host of<br />

major international races, Eddery is second only to Sir Gordon Richards when it comes to the total number of career wins in Britain<br />

with 4,632. Associated with a host of champions, Eddery’s numerous Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> highlights include Gold Cup triumphs on Erimo Hawk<br />

(1972) and Celeric (1997). A dozen of his wins at the Royal meeting came for trainer Peter Walwyn, for whom he rode through the<br />

1970s. Perhaps the best horse he partnered to Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> success was the brilliant champion miler, Warning. Guy Harwood’s charge<br />

quickened brilliantly under Eddery to land the 1989 Queen Anne Stakes by four lengths from Reprimand. That year’s Royal <strong>Ascot</strong><br />

proved to be Eddery’s finest as he partnered eight winners at the meeting including Two Timing in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes,<br />

Cacoethes in the King Edward VII Stakes and Assatis in the Hardwicke. He was also the top jockey at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in 1993, 1992, 1988<br />

and 1986. After a career that encompassed victories on some of the turf’s outstanding horses such as Dancing Brave, Grundy,<br />

Sadler’s Wells, Reference Point, Pebbles, El Gran Senor, Zafonic and Bosra Sham, Eddery retired at the end of the 2003 Flat season<br />

and is now a trainer.<br />

Willie Carson - Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> Wins: 56<br />

Willie Carson’s first Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> win came in 1971 when he partnered Celtic Cone to win the <strong>Ascot</strong> Stakes for his boss, the Newmarket<br />

trainer Bernard Van Cutsem. That belated first triumph at the summer showcase arrived 14 years after he began his apprenticeship<br />

with Captain Gerald Armstrong in North Yorkshire and, having broken his duck, Carson struck twice more at that year’s meeting,<br />

aboard Royal Dancer in the King George V Handicap and Stubb’s Gazette in the Britannia. Carson made up for a slow start to his<br />

career as he went on to partner 56 winners at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> before retiring in 1996, the last being Atraf in that year’s Cork And Orrery<br />

Stakes. Many of Carson’s victories came for trainer Major Dick Hern, and the pair teamed up with The Queen for a Royal double at<br />

the 1979 meeting when Expansive took the Ribblesdale Stakes and Buttress the Queen’s Vase. Carson and Hern joined together for<br />

four victories a year later headed by Ela Mana Mou in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes, while Little Wolf (1983) and Longboat (1986) took<br />

the Gold Cup for the Carson/Hern partnership. 1983 saw Carson notch his largest Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> total with five winners at the four-day<br />

meeting. In the latter part of his career, the Scotsman enjoyed a fruitful retainer with Hamdan Al Maktoum and he rode the owner’s<br />

Marju to win in the 1991 St James’s Palace Stakes and Lahib to success in the 1992 Queen Anne Stakes, while Muhtarram landed<br />

back-to-back wins in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes (1994 & 1995). Perhaps Carson’s greatest Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winner was Dayjur,<br />

imperious in the 1990 King’s Stand Stakes for Sheikh Hamdan and Hern. Other notable victories came aboard Habibti (1984) and<br />

Chilibang (1988) in the King’s Stand, and Danehill in the 1989 Cork And Orrery. Sadeem provided Carson with a third Gold Cup<br />

triumph in 1989. The five-time champion jockey retired in 1996 with 17 British Classic wins and 3,828 career wins on the board.<br />

Carson, who famously also rode the likes of Nashwan, Troy, High Top, Salsabil, Dunfermline, Sun Princess and Known Fact in a stellar<br />

career, remains a fixture at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> in his role as BBC TV pundit, alongside Clare Balding.<br />

Steve Cauthen - Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> wins: 38<br />

A teenage riding sensation in America, Steve Cauthen became the youngest jockey to win the US Triple Crown when taking all three<br />

legs aboard Affirmed in 1978 at the age of 18. Rising weight prompted a move to Britain in 1979 and Cauthen went on to be UK<br />

champion jockey on three occasions. Cauthen rode 38 Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> winners in a little more than a decade, following his first victory<br />

at the meeting on the Barry Hills-trained Prince Of Hush in the 1982 Prince Of Wales’s Stakes. He landed the Gold Cup for Hills aboard<br />

Gildoran in 1984 but it was as number one rider for Henry Cecil that Cauthen enjoyed his greatest period of success. In 1987, the year<br />

that he partnered Cecil’s Reference Point to Derby victory, Cauthen, rode seven winners at the Royal meeting, his best numerical haul.<br />

Two years later he went close to matching that feat as he rode six winners, including Indian Ridge in the King’s Stand Stakes. Among<br />

his five victories in 1990 were Shavian in the St James’s Palace Stakes and Chimes of Freedom in the Coronation Stakes. His last<br />

Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> triumph came on the Peter Makin-trained Elbio in the 1991 King’s Stand Stakes, the same year that he won the Prince<br />

Of Wales’s Stakes aboard his patron Sheikh Mohammed’s Stagecraft. He was leading rider at Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> on four occasions. Aside<br />

from those already mentioned, the Kentucky native’s career is synonymous with superstars such as Oh So Sharp, Pebbles, Slip<br />

Anchor, Indian Skimmer, Old Vic, Diminuendo and In The Groove. Cauthen retired from race riding at the end of 1992 with 2,794<br />

career victories and returned to his Kentucky home.<br />

Kevin Darley - Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> wins: 16<br />

Attraction provided Kevin Darley with his finest Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> moments. The brilliant filly blazed to a three-length triumph in the 2003<br />

Queen Mary Stakes and impressively added the following year’s Coronation Stakes. The first of Darley’s 16 Royal <strong>Ascot</strong> wins came<br />

aboard the John Dunlop-trained Emerging Market in the 1996 Wokingham and his last was on Linas Selection in the 2006 King George<br />

V Handicap. Other highlights include Zindabad’s 2002 Hardwicke Stakes and Observatory’s triumph in the Jersey Stakes of 2000. He<br />

landed the Queen’s Vase on four occasions, each time for trainer Mark Johnston. Darley was champion apprentice in 1978 but his<br />

stock rose markedly after partnering the outstanding champion two-year-old and 1995 Prix du Jockey Club hero Celtic Swing. He was<br />

champion jockey in 2000 and retired from race riding at the end of the 2007 season. Also among the best horses he rode in his career<br />

are Shamardal and High Chaparral, both of whom he partnered to Group One triumphs during their juvenile campaigns.<br />
