An occaision befit of royalty. The Royal Ascot has been around for over 300 years and is certainly rich in tradition. History has it, the Royal Ascot racecourse was founded in 1711 by Queen Anne, when out riding from Windsor Castle, she came upon an area of open heath that looked, in her words, 'ideal for horses to gallop at full stretch'. Her plans for a new race meeting were subsequently announced in the London Gazette of 12 July 1711. Truly a national sporting gem, the Royal Ascot is a high end sporting event like no other. With a total of £5m on offer in prize money, it is also a social occasion, steeped in history and synonymous with pageantry and elegance. On each of the five-race days of the Royal Ascot, The Queen arrives by Royal Procession along the racecourse with her guests, in full view of up to 80,000 spectators, this adds to the unique and memorable experience.
