ASCOTT MUJERIO EN LAS CARRERAS DE CABALLOS

 


Fashion front runners! Glamorous racegoers pull out all the stops on the final day of Ascot's May Racing Weekend in elaborate headgear and colourful outfits

  • Glamorous racegoers arrived for the final day of Ascot's May Racing Weekend in all their finery this afternoon
  •  Guests pulled out all the stops for the Victoria Cup Day of the two-day event at the Berkshire race ground
  •  Attendees opted for bright colours and over-the-top headgear for the much-anticipated festivities today

Glamorous racegoers weren't dampened by the gloomy weather as they arrived in all their finery for the final day of Ascot's May Racing Weekend this afternoon.

Guests pulled out all the stops in colourful ensembles as they attended the second and final day of the much-anticipated Berkshire horse racing event, known as the Victoria Cup. 

As is typical of the races, many of those in attendance decided to wear a statement headpiece for the festivities, while others dressed far more casually in simple dresses and platform boots.

Racegoers were clearly ready for the glorious spring weather predicted for this weekend - but the Berkshire race ground was gloomy and overcast.

That didn't stop the chic attendees of this weekend's event from showing off their dazzling dresses, and sipping champagne with their friends and family as they waited for the races to kick off.

The Victoria Cup is described as the 'highlight' of the two-day meeting, with Ascot writing on its website: 'The highlight of this two-day meeting is The Victoria Cup, a valuable seven-furlong heritage handicap that tends to attract proven course specialists and interesting, less exposed youngsters alike.

'Cape Byron was a memorable winner in 2019, going on to land The Wokingham Stakes a month later. It is likely that some of the 2022 participants will return to contest this, or another of Royal Ascot's major handicaps.'

The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead added the 'action-packed couple of days' is the 'perfect combination of thrilling racing and an atmosphere made for socialising with friends.'

It said: 'Several competitive handicaps make up the card, promising a thrilling afternoon's racing as Ascot prepares for its flagship meeting, Royal Ascot.'

Although those at Ascot saw gloomy weather today, this wasn't the case across much of the UK. 

People were pictured lying on the beach in Blackpool as warmer weather began to return to Britain, with parts of the UK expected to back in 22C (71.6F) temperatures over the weekend.

On Friday, temperatures yesterday rivalled those of Barcelona, Athens and Istanbul.

The mercury hit 23.3C (73.9F) in Heathrow and St James’s Park in London yesterday – just 0.1C below the 23.4C figure recorded on 15 April, 2022’s warmest day so far.
