Queen Elizabeth Brightens Epsom Races

It’s no secret that Queen Elizabeth loves horses and horse-racing. Her delight was evident at the Epsom races on Saturday, June 7, 2008. The monarch, who wore a cheery bright pink coat and matching hat, was accompanied by Prince Philip. The couple watched the race from the royal balcony.
Another royal couple was in the races, not as spectators, but as horse owners and eventually race winners. Princess Haya of Jordan and Sheikh Mohammed Al Maktoum of Dubai are the owners of the winning horse, New Approach.
