This year’s prize money of £6 million represents 75% of what we had originally planned for 2020. Prize money for Royal Ascot 2021 will be just over £6 million across the week – a 67% “With restricted attendances in 2021 and pandemic insurance cover no longer available, the business will need to absorb a increase on the £3.61m offered in 2020. significant loss this year in order to deliver our wish to support the industry with the most prize money that we can prudently afford. Whilst Covid-19 has knocked back our long term financial trajectory by several years, our aim is to make the largest steps we can towards getting prize money levels back on track as soon as possible.

“Without owners we would have no racing. We are very grateful for their commitment and thank them for their support. We look forward to being able to increase prize money further as soon as it is possible for us to do so.

“We are also very grateful to our official partners, QIPCO and Longines, as well as our official suppliers, sponsors, broadcast partners and betting media partners. All of their support is deeply appreciated.

“We at Ascot much look forward to being able to welcome back our racegoers in June and delivering a special week of racing, both for those who are able to be with us on site and the many millions who will be with us in spirit through our broadcast and digital channels.”

On 26th May it was announced that Royal Ascot would form part of the Government’s Events Research Programme (ERP), allowing 12,000 people to be admitted to each day of Royal Ascot.

The ERP is being carried out by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport, allowing spectators to attend a series of scientific pilot events as part of the Government’s plan to safely get big crowds back to large venues including racecourses and other sporting stadia this summer.

Working closely with local authorities and organisers, the science-led pilots are being run across a range of settings, venues and activities. Phase one included football matches at Wembley and the World Snooker Championships at the Crucible in Sheffield. As well as Royal Ascot, phase two includes an Test match at Edgbaston and games from the UEFA European Football Championship.

17 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ROYAL ASCOT STYLE GUIDE

Ascot Racecourse celebrates new season trends and the sustainable fashion movement with its 10th Royal Ascot Style Guide, in association with Longines.

Royal Ascot is a highlight of the British summer season and, after a year of uncertainty and lockdowns, it will truly herald the return of occasionwear when it opens its doors this year. Its annual celebration of the very best of British contemporary and traditional fashion and style will be one of the first occasions where Britain can get dressed up and this year, Royal Ascot is keen to emphasise sustainable fashion and the art of ‘shopping your wardrobe’.

A collaboration with legendary stylist Bay Garnett features garments sourced from charity shops, nearly new boutiques, vintage emporiums, and re-sale websites.

Queen of Thrifting, Bay Garnett pioneered the idea of shopping in second-hand stores as being relevant to high fashion. Working with Ascot, Bay sourced feature looks by well-known names such as Chanel, Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent from Rellik, Cancer Care, eBay, Found & Vision, My Wardrobe HQ and Circle of Style.

Visionary photographer Tom Craig brought his creative eye to the campaign with the duo creating images that elevate the world of pre-loved fashion. Through this year’s Royal Ascot Style Guide, Ascot is keen to demonstrate to racing followers around the world that the Royal Meeting is about looking your best – and that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to buy something brand new. This is particularly relevant in today’s climate when the pandemic has affected so many around the globe.

Bay Garnett comments: “Royal Ascot is one of the most glamorous and traditional events of British sporting life. To have an opportunity to bring second hand into this context was super exciting and I jumped at the chance! This is exactly the sort of event that can change the perception around second hand clothes. I hope that this year’s Style Guide shows that by buying second hand, it is not only a better choice for the environment but is also a way to dress in a fun, individual and stylish way.”

18 We have chosen this year’s 10th anniversary Style Guide to shine a spotlight on pre-loved fashion and encourage racegoers to ‘shop their wardrobes’

19 SIXTH ANNUAL ROYAL ASCOT MILLINERY COLLECTIVE

On Thursday 6th May we were delighted to launch the 2021 Millinery Collective in partnership with Fenwick. Joining forces with some of Britain’s best milliners, the 10-strong collection showcases designs from established and world-renowned milliners as well as exciting and emerging new talent.

Designs have been made exclusively for the collective by milliners including: Philip Treacy OBE, Stephen Jones OBE, Rachel Trevor-Morgan, Jane Taylor, Julian Garner, Victoria Grant, Juliette Botterill, Emily London, Beverley Edmondson and Rosie Olivia.

Innovative millinery has always played an intrinsic part of the Royal Meeting and this year’s Collective has provided a platform to celebrate the best of British millinery after a challenging year for these artisan designers due to Covid-19.

Each designer has a strong affiliation with horse racing and has been in launching this beautiful collection with many of the designs drawing inspiration from nature which has been such a welcome retreat for so many of us over the past year.

Royal Ascot is always a showcase of incredible creativity and style, and although this year’s event will see a much smaller attendance than in usual times, we are pleased to be shining a light on what is an iconic part of racing fashion.

GEOFFREY DASHWOOD

The monumental Harris Hawk, 325cm high, Bronze world edition of 6.

Geoffrey Dashwood was born in Hampshire, England in 1947. At the age of fifteen he won a scholarship to study fine art at Southampton College of Art, but left after a brief period, preferring to study directly from nature. He worked in varied occupations to support himself and experimented in various art mediums and techniques in his spare time. His last employment was with the Commission, engaged as a keeper in the New Forest, where he also became the unofficial artist in residence for his employers. Dashwood left the Forestry Commission in his mid-twenties to pursue a freelance career in art and soon received commissions for illustrations and design work, whilst concurrently drawing and painting independently.

In the 1980s Dashwood discovered a gift and a passion for sculpture. His earliest works were small, highly realistic studies in the mainstream of traditional English wildlife art and comparable in style to the famous 19th century French Animalier School of Sculpture.

Dashwood started to experiment with larger life-size and monumental works and began to eliminate all superfluous details, creating boldly modelled pieces. He refined his sculptures to attain smooth, tactile, pure forms, further enhanced in bronze by the application of coloured and multi-coloured patinas. In these sculptures he combined his own aesthetic ideals, establishing a distinctive style which is now internationally recognised as being quintessentially Dashwood.

Although his body of work can be classified within the wildlife art genre it is generally considered by many to transcend the subject matter and has also firmly established acceptance within the wider field of contemporary art. His affinity for and empathy with birds and his unique ability to express these emotions to others through his sculpture is undisputed. Dashwood’s work is exhibited and collected worldwide.

His works are held in the finest public and private collections around the world, and can be viewed with Muse Sculpture Co at Luckman Park, Wiltshire or at major art and decorative fairs.

Mackie made his first sale during his Mackie’s exploration into timelessness of man’s fascination with A-level show: two clay lambs for £50 to a family friend. the beauty of found objects. After university, Mackie travelled extensively in Africa, and in His works are held in the finest public and private collections 1995 he took a job in a hunting camp in Zimbabwe. He observed around the world, and can be viewed with Muse Sculpture Co how environment impacts character, particularly the distinction at Luckman Park, Wiltshire or at major art and decorative fairs. between a wild animal and one in captivity. Face to face with African wildlife, the urge to sculpt overcame him and he created a cheetah head out of beeswax and paraffin.

48 WHEN ROYAL ASCOT WASN’T QUITE THE SAME…..

Last year Royal Ascot was held behind closed doors without spectators for the first time ever, marking another unique chapter in the racecourse’s history. This year the colour of racing’s premier European Flat meeting will return as Ascot opens it’s gates to spectators for the first time in more than 15 months. It won’t quite be like normal yet but one day those lucky 12,000 each day will be able to say they were there for a special Royal Ascot, very much like…

“Black” Royal Ascots died aged 81 on January 22, 1901, bringing her Mirror recording “Strange and striking were the contrasts at then record 63-year reign to a close. Ascot. The most splendid fete of the year usually had now its dominant note in mourning. No member of royalty was As the nation remained in mourning, Royal Ascot that year was present, the King’s pavilion had drawn blinds and closed held in a sombre mood with the Royal Stand closed and the doors, and the occupants of the Royal Enclosure were in racecard featuring a black border. Dressing in black was also black, unrelieved save where ladies wore white flowers or had the order of the day, although it was recorded in The Times strings of pearls as the only ornament.” that by the Thursday, when the Gold Cup was run, “a number of ladies who were in black on the first two days had assumed a more modified form of mourning, as there were many dresses of white, lavender and mauve, although not enough to impart any colour to the scene.”

The new Sovereign, King Edward VII, was also absent from the Royal meeting in 1901, although this was on account of his own illness. His extreme discomfort turned out to be appendicitis and also resulted in his Coronation, scheduled for a fortnight after Royal Ascot, to be .

King Edward VII, a great devotee of the turf, himself died on May 6, 1910 at the age of 68. Royal Ascot again saw an overwhelming dominance of black attire, with the Daily

49 The two World Wars Royal Ascot was held as normal in 1914. However, it was just nine days after its conclusion on June 28 that Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo, setting in motion the First World War. Royal Ascot would not return until 1919. In the intervening years, the racecourse played host to a number of different functions including an army recruitment office, military hospital, medical supplies depot and a base for the Royal Flying Corps. A cinema for servicemen was opened on the Heath and made available to the public in the evenings.

Similarly, World War II resulted in Royal Ascot being suspended between 1940 and 1945, with the Grandstand providing accommodation for gunners of the Royal Artillery. Some of the Royal Ascot races were transferred to Newmarket during World War II, while The Jockey Club staged some fixtures at Ascot in 1943 and 1944.

A Whit Monday card at Ascot was staged on May 21, 1945, with Princess Elizabeth, our future Queen, in attendance. Although no Royal Ascot took place in 1945, various races were staged at the course later in the summer. The Coventry Stakes and Queen Mary Stakes were held at a one-day fixture in June, with the Gold Cup and Royal Hunt Cup held in July. A meeting in August played host to the Britannia Stakes and Wokingham.

When Royal Ascot did return in 1946, severe austerity and rationing meant that the dress code switched from morning dress to lounge suits and service dress. The Royal Procession was restricted to Tuesday and Thursday.

50 Industrial Strife Throughout the 1970s, from the Three-Day Week to the Winter of Discontent, strikes were a very regular news item.

Racing was not immune, with the bitter Stable Lads Strike taking place over 10 weeks between the April and July of 1975.

Although Royal Ascot was spared the ugly scenes that had blighted the Guineas Meeting at Newmarket in May, there was a march by stable lads on the course itself and pickets were in evidence outside the racecourse. The outside broadcast staff of the BBC were largely unwilling to cross picket lines, meaning that there was no television coverage of Royal Ascot in 1975. The racing itself was unaffected with those in attendance treated to the usual top-quality fare, headed by teaming up with the great Sagaro for the first of the horse’s three Gold Cup victories.

The dispute was finally resolved with the establishment of the Stable Lads’ Association, with assistance from John Oaksey and Jimmy Hill. The organisation subsequently changed its name to the National Association of Stable Staff and is now known as the National Association of Racing Staff. Resolution came in time for TV coverage of the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes on July 26, which saw the “Race of the Century” between and .

Foot & Mouth In 2001, the UK experienced its first outbreak of foot and mouth disease since 1967. The first case was officially confirmed in Essex on February 21 and by February 27 all racing was suspended for seven days. Guidelines were issued by the then BHB (now BHA) for restarting racing at the start of March. Racing’s resumption was very much on a case by case basis and dependent on whether racecourses were situated in an Royal Ascot goes north exclusion zone. The biggest casualty was the Cheltenham Ascot Racecourse underwent its £220 million redevelopment Festival, which had to be cancelled. between September 2004 and June 2006.

51 Behind closed doors When the COVID-19 pandemic struck in March 2020, all racing was halted indefinitely as the country entered lockdown. The Government gave approval for elite sport to take place behind closed doors from 1st June and horse racing was one the first major sports to resume. Just over two weeks later Royal Ascot took place behind closed doors for the first time in its history.

With the Guineas meeting taking place during that first week of resumption, the St James’s Palace Stakes and Coronation Stakes were pushed back to the Saturday to allow as much time as possible for horses to recover from Newmarket. The Ribblesdale Stakes and King Edward VII Stakes also acted as key Oaks and Derby Trials, taking place before the Epsom Classics for the first time ever. Six additional races were added to the meeting to provide opportunities for horses that needed to run following the lack of racing due to the lockdown.

Strict COVID-19 protocols were in place across the racecourse with temperature testing on entry, jockeys changing in what would normally be the Bandstand Restaurant to ensure social distancing and face coverings required in the parade ring.

Although only essential personnel were on site to see it, the racing proved of the highest quality as Battaash won the King’s Stand Stakes, Stradivarius won a third Gold Cup and Palace Pier confirmed his class in the St James’s Palace Stakes.

Record numbers tuned in to watch on ITV with nearly 1.8 million watching Hayley Turner win the Sandringham Stakes on Onassis and 1.5 million saw Stradivarius win the Gold Cup under . That Thursday afternoon saw the highest average viewership of any day at the Royal Meeting since 2012 at 1.2 million.

52 ASCOT - ITS HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

It was Queen Anne who first saw the potential for a racecourse at Ascot, which in those days was called East Cote. Whilst out riding in 1711, she came upon an area of open heath, not far from Windsor Castle, that looked an ideal place for “horses to gallop at full stretch.”

The first race meeting ever held at Ascot took place on Satur- time, but the first four-day meeting took place in 1768. Arguably, day, August 11, 1711. Her Majesty’s Plate, worth 100 Guineas and the meeting as we know it today started to take shape with the open to any horse, mare or gelding over the age of six, was the introduction of the Gold Cup in 1807. inaugural event. Each horse was required to carry a weight of 12st and seven runners took part. Gold Cup Day is the third day of Royal Ascot. Although you won’t find it in any marketing or promotional literature, Thursday This contest bore little resemblance to racing seen at Ascot is colloquially known as Ladies’ Day. today. The seven horses were all English Hunters, quite different to the speedy that race on the Flat now. The race The term Ladies’ Day seems to have been first used in 1823, when consisted of three separate heats which were four miles long an anonymous poet described the Thursday of the Royal Meeting (each heat was about the length of the ), so the as “Ladies’ Day, when the women, like angels, look sweetly divine.” winner would have been a horse with tremendous stamina. Sadly, In the formative years, Thursday was certainly the dominant day there is no record of the winner of the first Plate. in terms of the racing, attracting the largest crowds and, it must be assumed from the emergence of the term, more ladies! The racecourse was laid out by William Lowen, who was assisted by a team of helpers; William Erlybrown, a Almost every racecourse markets a Ladies’ Day now but the great carpenter, Benjamin Cluchett, a painter, and John Grape, who charm of the original is that it has not been manufactured. It is the prepared the paperwork for racing. The first permanent building public, not the racecourse, who call it Ladies’ Day. was erected in 1793 by George Slingsby, a Windsor builder. It held 1,650 people and was used until 1838. The Gold Cup is Ascot’s oldest surviving race, and the winning owners receive a gold trophy which becomes their property. In 1813, Parliament passed an Act of Enclosure. This Act ensured Trophies to keep are only awarded for ten races at the Royal that Ascot Heath, although the property of the Crown, would be Meeting, the others being the Queen’s Vase, inaugurated in kept and used as a racecourse for the public in the future. Racing 1838 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s accession, the Royal at Ascot was now secure. Hunt Cup (1843) and the remaining Group 1 races.

The precise origin of the Royal Meeting is unclear. It was an event that evolved, perhaps, rather than was introduced at a specific

53 It was at around the time of the first running of the Gold Cup that the roots of today’s traditional Royal Enclosure dress code emerged. Beau Brummell, a close friend of the Prince Regent, decreed that men of elegance should wear waisted black coats and white cravats with pantaloons. Over the years, this has evolved into the wearing of morning suits and equally formal clothes for ladies, who must wear hats.

Although a Royal Stand dates back to the 1790s, the Royal Enclosure that current regulars are used to at Ascot was conceived in 1822 when King George IV commissioned a two- storey stand to be built with a surrounding lawn. Access was by invitation of the King. In 1825, the Royal Procession as an annual tradition began. The King, leading four other coaches with members of the Royal party, drove up the centre of the racecourse in front of the crowds and this has continued to the present day.

The administration of Ascot has always been handled by a representative appointed by the Monarch. The racecourse was run on behalf of the Sovereign by the Master of the Royal Buckhounds up until 1901 when Lord was appointed as the first official Representative of , a post held today by Johnny Weatherby (as Her Majesty’s Representative).

54 Ascot’s first major redevelopment came to fruition in 1954, with the relocation of the straight mile north to allow more space behind the stands. This was the second such move and even this time around, they didn’t go quite far enough as the track was moved a further 42 metres north as part of the 2005 redevelopment. Prior to the second move, the straight track cut right through the existing Number One Car Park into the current site of Heatherwood Hospital.

The Queen Elizabeth II Grandstand, built by Wimpey, was erected between the 1960 and 1961 Royal Meeting and the Members’ Stand went up between Royal Ascot 1963 and 1964.

The Car Parks at Ascot almost certainly play more part in the event than at any other venue – they are far from merely functional with lavish picnics, including butlers, candelabra and silver service not uncommon, especially in Number One and Two Car Parks. In 2006, a Country Life survey found that Royal Ascot is the South of England’s most popular picnic spot and the most popular sporting occasion at which to picnic in the country.

Although Ascot likes to think it runs Number One Car Park, it is far from uncommon for berths in this sought after spot to be passed down formally from generation to generation. There is currently a waiting list of 400 names.

In 1913, when the Ascot Authority was established by an Act of Ascot’s much loved tradition of “singing around the bandstand” Parliament, His Majesty’s Representative became Senior Trustee or “community singing” began in the 1970s under the stewardship of the Authority with the Clerk of the Course acting as Secretary. of Lady Beaumont, wife of the then Clerk of the Course, Captain Today, as Ascot Authority (Holdings) Limited, Ascot has a formal Sir Nicholas Beaumont.

However, a redevelopment part of their day. Now, traditional singing is listed as part of the of the Enclosure shortly before this had added the new Queen’s day’s formal proceedings in the racecard and song books and Lawn, which was by invitation and the Court rules governing flags are handed round. divorce still applied.

55 The new Ascot was officially reopened by The Queen, on time and to its £220 million budget, on 20th June, 2006.

The modern era immediately had a new equine legend in Yeats, who won an unprecedented four Gold Cups before retiring in 2009. A statue to commemorate his achievements now stands in the Parade Ring.

2011 saw Ascot celebrate its tercentenary and 2012 was another exciting landmark occasion for the racecourse as the Royal Meeting played its part in The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. On the track, the great Frankel won the Queen Anne Stakes and made her only appearance outside Australia, winning the Diamond Jubilee Stakes.

There was a Royal winner in 2012 when won the Queen’s Vase. That horse went on to scenes of unbridled joy from the crowd when winning the following year’s Gold Cup.

Estimate’s jockey in 2012 was Ryan Moore, who broke another record at Royal Ascot in 2015 with nine winners across the week.

In 2016, The Queen’s success continued with Dartmouth winning the Hardwicke Stakes. 2002 saw plenty of change to the established pattern at Royal Ascot as the meeting expanded to five days to mark The Queen’s In 2017, The Village Enclosure was opened, the first new Golden Jubilee.

The 2005 Royal Meeting was staged in York, providing the city with its biggest ever sporting event. The city, region and racecourse threw themselves into the extravaganza, which saw expansion into the Knavesmire so as to accommodate circa 50,000 people each day.

Royal Ascot at York took place with a Royal Enclosure and Royal Procession every day. The bell used to instruct jockeys to mount at Ascot travelled up along with the Brown Jack statue commemorating the Ascot legend.

63 Many people were sympathetic to the Ascot Authority in June, 1964, after the Royal Meeting had to be curtailed due to severe rain, thus blighting the opening of the new Royal Enclosure Stand. None more so than the old lady who sent the Authority £1 because she was so distressed to hear of the course’s bad luck. The Duke of Norfolk, Her Majesty’s Representative at the time, responded with equal magnanimity, thanking the lady and inviting her to a day’s racing.

In the days before actors were allowed in the Royal Enclosure, King Edward VII asked the actor Charles Hawtrey if he would be seeing him at Royal Ascot. Hawtrey explained that rules prevented it, whereupon the King took it upon himself personally to send Hawtrey the necessary badge. When Ascot came, Hawtrey entered the Enclosure to the great surprise of Lord Churchill, His Majesty’s Representative at Ascot, who said: “I don’t remember sending you a badge.” Hawtrey explained that this was not surprising as he hadn’t – “King Edward did!”

It is said that when Queen Anne was in residence at Windsor Castle, she imported a large quantity of green velour material from France, in which she dressed her “Yeoman Prickers,” who were armed with pikes to move people out of the way at the races!

65 THE RACES THE QUEEN ANNE STAKES

Background First run in 1840, the Queen Anne Stakes commemorates the monarch who established racing at Ascot. In the early summer of 1711, while being driven in a carriage from Windsor Castle, Queen Anne decided that Ascot Heath would be a good place to establish a racecourse. A few weeks later, on August 11, 1711, the Royal Meeting was founded. Between 1840 and 1929, this race was known as the Trial Stakes.

Run over Ascot’s straight mile, the Queen Anne Stakes attracts the leading older milers from across Europe and beyond. The establishment of the Pattern race system for categorising the top events in 1971 saw the Queen Anne Stakes have G3 status, before becoming a G2 in 1984. The race was elevated to G1 status in 2003, when it also became restricted to four-year-olds and older.

A remarkable renewal in 1974 saw the first three horses - Confusion, Gloss and Royal Perogative - disqualified for causing interference, with the race awarded to the Italian challenger Brook who went pass the post in fourth for trainer Mario Benetti and jockey Brian Taylor.

The race is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series and a Breeders’ Cup ‘Win and You’re In’ contest.

Notable winners include (1999) – went on to become a top stallion, siring Derby winners and , plus wonderful mare , successful in seven G1 races including the 2006 Prince Of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Goldikova (2010) – brilliant mare and winner of 14 G1 contests; became the first horse to win three renewals of the Breeders’ Cup Mile.

Frankel (2012) – perhaps the greatest racehorses of all time, with an unprecedented rating of 147; unbeaten in 14 starts, 10 of which came at G1 level; won five races at Ascot in total, including the G1 St James’s Palace Stakes, the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes sponsored by QIPCO and the G1 QIPCO Champion Stakes. His Queen Anne Stakes performance was simply breathtaking as he stormed to an 11-length success.

Tepin (2016) – became the first US-trained victor of the race and the second winner from the USA of a non-juvenile race at Royal Ascot. The champion mare, a six-time G1 winner, was later sold to Coolmore for $8 million at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky 2017 November Mixed Sale.

70 THE KING’S STAND STAKES

Background Bad weather played a crucial role in the origins of the King’s Stand Stakes. In 1860 heavy rain made it impossible for the two- mile Royal Stand Plate to take place so the race was renamed the Queen’s Stand Plate and run over four furlongs, the only raceable part of the course.

The race was then run over five furlongs and, with the accession of King Edward VII in 1901, was renamed the King’s Stand Stakes, but curiously did not revert to its original name when the present monarch Queen Elizabeth II came to the throne in 1952.

The King’s Stand Stakes regained G1 status in 2008, having been a G2 since 1988, G1 from 1973 to 1987 and G2 in 1971 and 1972. There have been 11 overseas-trained winners since the turn of the century. The King’s Stand Stakes is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series.

Notable winners include (1949) – considered the greatest sprinter of the 20th century with a Timeform rating of 142; won 14 of his 17 career starts including back-to-back victories in the July Cup, King George Stakes and in 1949 and 1950.

Dayjur (1990) – followed up Ascot success by setting a course record at York in the Nunthorpe Stakes before victories in the and the Prix de l’Abbaye.

Choisir (2003) – the first Australian-trained horse to win in Britain. He doubled up four days later in the six-furlong Diamond Jubilee Stakes, making him the first horse since Stanerra in 1983 to win twice at the same Royal Meeting.

Miss Andretti (2007) – the Australian-trained mare had the 2006 victor and fellow Australian Takeover Target back in fourth when setting a track record time of 57.44s (the course was remodelled in 2005), which still stands.

Blue Point (2019) – landed the King’s Stand Stakes for the second successive year and emulated Choisir later in the week by doubling up in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes; won all bar one of his six career starts at Ascot.

Multiple winners There have been 12 dual winners of the King’s Stand Stakes but only four since the Second World War – Elbio (1991 & 1993), Equiano (2008 & 2010), Sole Power (2013 & 2014) and Blue Point (2018 & 2019).

72 THE ST JAMES’S PALACE STAKES

Background Named after the Tudor Royal residence, the inaugural running of the St James’s Palace Stakes in 1834 gave little indication of the high-quality and competitive fields that the race would later produce - while it attracted a Derby winner in Plenipotentiary, the colt was the only runner and consequently was allowed a walkover.

A host of Derby winners have gone on to win the St James’s Palace Stakes, notably British Triple Crown winners (1886), (1903) and (1935).

In the post-war period, the Epsom graduates surrendered their dominance to the emerging category of , the mile specialist, and the St James’s Palace Stakes usually features colts that won or were placed in the English, Irish or French 2,000 Guineas.

The race started out with G2 status in 1971 and was promoted to G1 for the 1988 renewal. It is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series, open to three-year-old colts and staged over the round mile.

Notable winners include Tudor Minstrel (1947) – champion two-year-old of 1946; eight-length victor of the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket despite being eased down, the biggest winning distance in the Classic’s history.

Brigadier Gerard (1971) – won 17 of his 18 careers starts over distances from five furlongs to a mile and a half; successful in one of the best renewals of the 2,000 Guineas that also featured Mill Reef and My Swallow; unbeaten in five starts at Ascot.

Frankel (2011) – unbeaten in 14 starts, 10 of which came at G1 level; won five races at Ascot in total, including the Queen Anne Stakes by 11 lengths, the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes and the QIPCO Champion Stakes; rated 147 by Timeform, the highest in the organisation’s history.

79 THE QUEEN’S VASE

Background Queen Victoria donated a gold vase for a mile and a half race at Ascot in 1838. This race would become the Gold Cup Vase and then in 1960 was renamed the Queen’s Vase after Queen Elizabeth II. It was restricted to three-year-olds in 1987.

The distance of the Queen’s Vase was reduced to a mile and six furlongs in 2017, having previously been run at two miles, and was upgraded to G2 status for the first time, with the prize money boosted.

The 2013 renewal was called the Queen’s Vase In Memory of Sir Henry Cecil after leading trainer Sir Henry Cecil who died on June 11 that year and had sent out eight winners of this race.

Notable winners include Le Moss (1978) – one of the greatest stayers of modern times; completed the stayers’ Triple Crown in 1979 by winning the Gold Cup, and ; did the treble again in 1980, defeating future Gold Cup hero Ardross on each occasion. Joanna Morgan became the first female jockey to ride at Royal Ascot in the 1978 Queen’s Vase on Gallowshill Boy, who finished ninth.

Mamool (2002) – went on to win the 2003 G2 Yorkshire Cup before dropping back in trip and annexing two G1 prizes in Germany, notably the .

Estimate (2012) – subsequently gained a memorable success in the 2013 Gold Cup, establishing Her Majesty The Queen as the first reigning monarch to win the prestigious race.

Stradivarius (2017) – prolific stayer who has won the last three editions of the Gold Cup; also a four-time winner of the G1 Goodwood Cup; crowned Europe’s champion stayer in 2018, 2019 & 2020.

Kew Gardens (2018) – captured the G1 Grand Prix de next time out before winning the final British Classic, the G1 St Leger, at Doncaster; ended Stradivarius’ 10-race winning streak when the pair clashed for the first time in the G2 QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup at Ascot in October 2019, scoring by a nose.

Queen’s Vase/St Leger double The Queen’s Vase has become a classier race in recent years. This is emphasised by (2013) and (2018), both trained by Aidan O’Brien, going on to victory in the St Leger at Doncaster.

Queen’s Vase/ double (2020) continued the excellent record of recent winners when going on to take the G1 Irish Derby eight days later.

82 THE PRINCE OF WALES’S STAKES

Background The Prince Of Wales’s Stakes was first run at Royal Ascot in 1862, a year after the death of Prince Albert. The popular Prince of Wales (later to become King Edward VII) had taken over many of the social duties previously carried out by his mother, Queen Victoria, who continued to remain in mourning for her late husband.

In the early years, it was mainly three-year-olds who competed in the race, then run over one mile and five furlongs. Horses often ran in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes after having participated in one or more of the Classics. In the first half of the 20th century, it generally became rarer for horses of the Classic generation to run in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes. One very notable exception was the great Hyperion, who was successful in 1933, the same year that he won the Derby and St Leger.

When racing resumed at Royal Ascot in 1946, there was no Prince Of Wales’s Stakes because George VI was on the throne and, as he had no male heirs, there was no Prince of Wales. The race did not take place again until 1968, a year before the current Prince of Wales’s investiture in 1969, with the distance changed to a mile and a quarter.

The Prince Of Wales’s Stakes, which became a G1 contest for four-year-olds and upwards in 2000, is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series and Breeders’ Cup ‘Win and You’re In’.

Notable winners include Brigadier Gerard (1972) – won 17 of his 18 careers starts over distances from five furlongs to a mile and a half; successful in one of the best renewals of the 2,000 Guineas that also featured Mill Reef and My Swallow; Timeform rating of 144, bettered only by Frankel and .

Mtoto (1987 & 1988) – dual winner who won two as well as Ascot’s King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes.

Bosra Sham (1997) – fragile filly who showed her class with a memorable eight-length victory, having captured the 1,000 Guineas and Champion Stakes, both at Newmarket, the season before.

Dubai Millennium (2000) – one of the modern-day greats on dirt and turf; won the by six lengths before an eight-length Prince Of Wales’s Stakes victory at Royal Ascot.

Ouija Board (2006) – star racemare who racked up seven G1 successes on three continents during her career; dam of 2014 Derby winner Australia.

So You Think (2012) – won back-to-back Cox Plates, Australia’s most prestigious race, for legendary trainer Bart Cummings; continued his career in Europe for Aidan O’Brien – adding five G1s to his CV including the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes, Eclipse Stakes and .

Multiple winners There have been three dual winners – Connaught (1969 & 1970), (1987 & 1988) and Muhtarram (1994 & 1995)

84 THE ROYAL HUNT CUP

Background The Royal Hunt Cup is not only one of the major betting races of the season but has also established itself as a tremendous spectacle. The inaugural running in 1843 was won decisively by Knight Of Whistle, but behind was a desperate battle for second place between Garry Owen, Epaulette and Bourra Tomacha - the judge could not split them and eventually awarded a triple dead-heat for the runner-up position.

The Royal Hunt Cup has long been the subject of heavy gambles and two enormous touches were landed at the turn of the 18th century. Prior to the 1900 running, Royal Flush had shown form only in minor races and appeared to be out of his depth. But his trainer, Enoch Wishard, had perfected the technique of doping and was able to induce the necessary improvement. Royal Flush won and netted a fortune for his unscrupulous American owners.

The next significant tilt at the ring was executed by the infamous Druid’s Lodge Confederacy. Lally, one of the best horses ever trained at Druid’s Lodge, was thought to be a certainty for the 1906 Derby at Epsom over a mile and a half, and was backed down to favouritism. Unable to stay the trip, he was prepared for the 1907 Royal Hunt Cup, which he won defeating by half a length.

The handicap was originally over a distance of seven furlongs and 155 yards, until the course was re-aligned and a straight mile laid out in time for the 1955 meeting. A maximum field of 30 is allowed.

Fly To The Stars, favourite in 1998 to defy 9st 11lb, could not cope with 20/1 chance Refuse To Lose, but went on to success in three Group races culminating in the G1 at Newbury in 1999, demonstrating what a competitive race the Royal Hunt Cup is.

Notable winners include Master Vote (1947 & 1948) – the only horse to win two editions of the Royal Hunt Cup.

Buzzards Bay (1982) – completed prestigious handicap double when winning what is now the John Smith’s Cup at York the following month; returned to Ascot later in the year to win the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes.

Cesare (2006) – progressed into high-class miler; won four of his nine starts, with his most notable success coming in the 2007 G2 Summer Mile; also finished runner-up to Paco Boy in 2009 Queen Anne Stakes.

93 THE GOLD CUP

Background Founded in 1807, the Gold Cup is one of the most prestigious races at Royal Ascot. At two miles and four furlongs, it thoroughly tests a horse’s stamina, but is not the longest contest of the meeting, with that accolade going to the Queen Alexandra Stakes over approaching two miles and six furlongs on the final day.

Pretty Polly’s defeat by Bachelor’s Button in 1906 is arguably the race’s greatest upset. The brilliant 1904 Oaks winner seemed to be unsettled by the sweltering conditions and a wart on her belly.

Ardross (1981 & 1982) – part of a vintage era of stayers that also included Sagaro and Le Moss; went down by three-quarters of a length to Le Moss in the 1980 Gold Cup before going on to dominate the staying division for the next two years; beaten a head on final appearance in Europe’s premier middle-distance contest, the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, in 1982.

Yeats (2006, 2007, 2008 & 2009) – the only horse to win the Gold Cup four times; one-time Derby contender who took the Coronation Cup as a four-year-old; also won the Irish St Leger, the Prix Royal-Oak and the Goodwood Cup; became the oldest winner (8yo) of the Gold Cup since Merman in 1900 when gaining his fourth success in 2009 and is commemorated with a statue in Ascot’s parade ring.

Estimate (2013) – The Queen’s stayer created history by becoming the first horse owned by a reigning monarch to win the Gold Cup. A half-sister to the 1999 Gold Cup winner Enzeli, Estimate also won the Queen’s Vase at Royal Ascot in 2012.

Stradivarius (2018, 2019 & 2020) – has ruled the staying division in recent seasons; his big race haul also includes four Goodwood Cups, two Lonsdale Cups, as well as further success at Ascot in the Queen’s Vase, QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup and .

99 THE BUCKINGHAM PALACE HANDICAP

Background The Buckingham Palace Handicap was reinstated in 2020 as part of the extended race programme following a six-year hiatus.

It was originally introduced to the expanded Royal meeting in 2002, the year of The Queen’s Golden Jubilee, and named after Her Majesty’s London residence. Staged over seven furlongs for three-year-olds and upwards, the contest typically attracted a maximum field and was one of the big betting races on Friday. It was removed from the race programme ahead of Royal Ascot 2015 to allow space for the G1 Commonwealth Cup.

Notable winners include Jedburgh (2005) – subsequently captured the G3 at the Curragh for his owner-breeder, The Earl Cadogan; also runner-up in Goodwod’s G2 .

Regal Parade (2008) – undoubtedly the best horse to win the Buckingham Palace Handicap; went on to win the later in the season and proved even better as he got older, taking the 2009 G1 Haydock Sprint Cup and the G1 at Deauville in 2010.

Overseas-trained winners None

Oldest winner Uhoomagoo was eight when scoring in 2006.

Betting Longest-priced winner: Binanti (2007) & Louis The Pious (2014), both 33/1 Shortest-priced winner: Unscrupulous (2004) & Jedburgh (2005), both 8/1 Market leaders: No market leaders were successful in the previous 14 runnings.

Cursory Glance (2014) – successful in the G1 later in the season.

101 THE KING EDWARD VII STAKES

Background Formerly known by the name, and still colloquially referred to as the Ascot Derby, the King Edward VII Stakes was inaugurated in 1834 and regularly featured horses of both sexes who had competed in the middle-distance Classics.

First run as the King Edward VII Stakes in 1926 and now restricted to three-year-old colts and geldings, the G2 contest still attracts horses that have competed in the Derby and takes place over a mile and a half.

Notable winners include (1951), Ile De Borbon (1978) & (2011) – all progressed to win the G1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot in the same season.

Shareef Dancer (1983) – won the G1 Irish Derby next time out; dam sire of Dubai Millennium.

Light Cavalry (1980) & (1999) – both subsequently won the final British Classic, the G1 St Leger at Doncaster in September.

Japan (2019) – after a close third in the Derby, proved arguably the best middle-distance colt of his generation with G1 victories in the Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp and the Juddmonte International at York.

103 THE COMMONWEALTH CUP

Background The inaugural running of the Commonwealth Cup in 2015 marked the first sprint contest in Europe confined to three-year-olds.

It was also the first new race in the 44-year history of the European Pattern to go straight in with G1 status, rather than with a probationary period at a lower level or no grade at all.

All 18 runners had already secured black type, while 13 were Group or Listed winners. , an colt owned by Hamdan Al Maktoum and trained by Charlie Hills, was the most impressive winner, coming home clear of future G1 victor .

The stunning victory was no fluke as Muhaarar remained unbeaten for the rest of the year in three more G1 sprints, the Darley July Cup, the Prix Maurice De Gheest and the QIPCO British Champions Sprint, becoming European Champion Sprinter.

104 THE CORONATION STAKES

Background First run in 1840, the Coronation Stakes was founded to commemorate the crowning of Queen Victoria in 1838. The mile event for three-year-olds became the fillies’ equivalent of the St James’s Palace Stakes and established itself as a natural progression for fillies who had run creditably in the the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket in early May.

The first filly to complete the 1,000 Guineas/Coronation Stakes double was the Jos Dawson-trained Lady Augusta in 1863. Twelve fillies have done the double in the post-war period – (1951), (1952), (1953), Festoon (1954), (1967), (1970), One In A Million (1979), (2003), Attraction (2004), Ghanaati (2009), (2013) and Winter (2017).

The Coronation Stakes, run over the round mile, is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series and was promoted to G1 status in 1988.

Notable winners include (1904) – one of the greatest fillies of all time. Won 22 of her 24 races, including the 1,000 Guineas, Oaks, St Leger, two renewals of the Coronation Cup and the Champion Stakes; went on to become an outstanding broodmare.

Book Law (1927) – runner-up in the 1,000 Guineas before going on to Classic glory in the St Leger at Doncaster over three quarters of a mile further; was the dam of Archive, who went on to sire brilliant chaser Arkle.

Meld (1955) – gained the fillies’ Triple Crown with victories in the 1,000 Guineas, Oaks and St Leger; dam of the 1966 Derby winner .

Humble Duty (1970) – top miler, who won the 1,000 Guineas by seven lengths, and then Goodwood’s Sussex Stakes.

Ridgewood Pearl (1995) – a G1 winner in four countries, winning the Irish 1,000 Guineas, the Prix Du Moulin de Longchamp in France and the Breeders’ Cup Mile in addition to her Royal Ascot success.

Attraction (2004) – captured the 1,000 Guineas, Irish 1,000 Guineas and the Coronation Stakes, despite being born with crooked forelegs; also won the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot during an unbeaten juvenile campaign.

Alpha Centauri (2018) – won by six lengths in a new track record time of 1m 35.89s, over a second inside the previous best set by Barney Roy in the 2017 St James’s Palace Stakes; won four G1 mile prizes in 2018.

Overseas-trained winners (since 1946) Ireland (15) – (1962), Calve (1972), Lisadell (1974), Orchestration (1977), Sutton Place (1978), Cairn Rouge (1980), Flame Of Tara (1983), (1991), (1995), (2002), Lush Lashes (2008), Lille Langtry (2010), Winter (2017), Alpha Centauri (2018), (2020) France (12) – Midget II (1956), Toro (1957), Barbaresque (1960), Kesar Queen (1976), (1989), Gold Splash (1993), Shake The Yoke (1996), Banks Hill (2001), Immortal Verse (2011), (2015), Qemah (2016), Watch Me (2019)

109 THE CHESHAM STAKES

Background First run in 1919, the Chesham Stakes takes its name from the third Baron Chesham, who was the last Master of the Buckhounds at Ascot (1900-1901) – the role was replaced by His or Her Majesty’s Representative at Ascot on King Edward VII’s accession to the throne.

The Chesham Stakes took over from the first leg of the Triennial Stakes, a five-furlong two-year-old contest. The middle leg of the Triennial Stakes, a seven-furlong contest for three-year-olds, became the Jersey Stakes, while the final leg, for four-year- olds over two miles, became the Churchill Stakes.

Extended to its current distance of seven furlongs in 1996 after being run at five furlongs and then six furlongs, the Chesham Stakes is restricted to two-year-olds whose dam or sire won over a distance in excess of nine and a half furlongs (or 1900m).

Notable winners include Abernant (1948) – champion juvenile of 1948 with victories in the Champagne Stakes and Middle Park Stakes to add to his Royal Ascot success; beaten a short-head in the following year’s 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket before establishing himself as a brilliant sprinter.

115 THE DIAMOND JUBILEE STAKES

Background Royal Ascot’s most valuable sprint became the Diamond Jubilee Stakes in 2012 in recognition of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s ascension to throne in 1952. It was elevated to Group One status to celebrate the Queen’s Golden Jubilee in 2002 and run as the Golden Jubilee Stakes from 2002 - 2011. Prior to 2002, the contest was known as the Cork & Orrery Stakes.

The inaugural running of this six-furlong contest took place in 1868. The race was named the Cork & Orrery Stakes after Lord Cork, a Master of the Buckhounds, from 1926 to 2001. It was restricted to four-year-olds and upwards with the first running of the Commonwealth Cup in 2015. The Diamond Jubilee Stakes is part of the QIPCO British Champions Series and Breeders’ Cup ‘Win and You’re In’.

Notable winners include Right Boy (1958 & 1959) – the last of this race’s six multiple winners, Right Boy also won the King’s Stand Stakes in 1957; one of the leading post-War sprinters, he also gained two victories in both the July Cup and the Nunthorpe Stakes.

Danehill (1989) – top sprinter who also won the Haydock Sprint Cup in 1989 before going on to establish himself as one of the most influential stallions of modern times, becoming champion sire in both Europe and Australia.

Choisir (2002) – the first Australian-trained horse to triumph in Britain, annexing both the King’s Stand Stakes and the Diamond Jubilee Stakes in the same year – the first horse to complete the Royal Ascot sprint double since in 1920.

Black Caviar (2012) – one of the best sprinters of all-time and unbeaten in 25 starts in a glittering career. The Australian-trained mare had already won 11 G1 races before lining up in the 2012 Diamond Jubilee Stakes and scored at odds of 1/6, despite jockey Luke Nolen almost snatching defeat from the jaws of victory by easing up near the line.

Blue Point (2019) – emulated Choisir by winning the King’s Stand Stakes and Diamond Jubilee Stakes in the same week; also captured the King’s Stand Stakes in 2018.

117 THE WOKINGHAM HANDICAP

Background The inaugural Wokingham took place in 1813, making the race the oldest of the handicaps still run at Royal Ascot.

The famous sprint, which has been run over six furlongs since its inception, is named after the market town seven miles from the Royal course.

The attraction of a handicap as a betting medium was a prime reason for the Wokingham’s initial success.

Pointers, the first winner, was owned by the Duke of York.

Notable winners include Fayr Jag (DH 2003) – dead-heated with Ratio before returning to Royal Ascot a year later to capture the G1 Diamond Jubilee Stakes.

Iffraaj (2005) – readily won by two lengths in 2005, when the Royal Meeting was run at York due to the redevelopment of Ascot; subsequently won three G2 races and was beaten a head in the 2006 G1 July Cup before establishing himself as a top stallion.

Laddies Poker Two (2010) - had been off the racecourse for 610 days before scoring emphatically for trainer Jeremy Noseda; the talented but fragile mare, who didn’t race following her Royal Ascot success, is the dam of the dual Guineas and 2017 Coronation Stakes winner Winter.

Overseas-trained winners (since 1960) Ireland (3) – Boone’s Cabin (1975), Time Machine (1985), Dandy Boy (2012) France (1) – Ratio (DH 2003)

Oldest winner (since 1960) Out Do, trained by David O’Meara, became the oldest winner at eight in 2017

Betting (since 1960) Longest-priced winner: 33/1 Red Rosen (1992), Emerging Market (1996), Dandy Boy (2012), Bacchus (2018) Shortest-priced winner: 9/4F Iffraaj (2005) Market leaders: 11 favourites or joint favourites have been successful in the 60 runnings

Most successful trainer (since 1960) 3 wins Paul Cole – Calibina (1977), Queen’s Pride (1980), Bel Byou (1987)

Most successful jockey (since 1960) 3 wins Willie Carson – Plummet (1973), Great Eastern (1981), Time Machine (1985) Johnny Murtagh – Nice One Clare (2001), Laddies Poker Two (2010), Deacon Blues (2011)

*Ryan Moore set a new post-war record of nine winners for a single Royal Ascot Meeting in 2015. The previous best total of eight since 1945 was achieved by Lester Piggott in 1965 and 1975 and Pat Eddery in 1989 when Royal Ascot took place over four rather than the current five days. Royal Ascot expanded to five days in 2002. The best ever score by a jockey at Royal Ascot is 12, set by Fred Archer in 1878.

Among current jockeys, two are dominant – Ryan Moore has topped the table eight times in the last 11 years, while Frankie Dettori has been the Royal Ascot champion seven times.

Three female riders have enjoyed success at Royal Ascot: Gay Kelleway (Sprowston Boy – 1987 Queen Alexandra Stakes); Hayley Turner (Thanks Be – 2019 Sandringham Handicap & Onassis – 2020 Sandringham Handicap); Hollie Doyle (Scarlet Dragon - 2020 Duke Of Edinburgh Handicap). Joanna Morgan became the first female jockey to ride at Royal Ascot in the 1978 Queen’s Vase on Gallowshill Boy, who finished ninth.
