Royal Ascot has been one of the biggest events of the horse racing calendar since 1911 when the meeting officially became a royal week. People from all over the country will be attending to witness the extravagant outfits and of course, the high quality of horse racing available.
The Ascot racing days actually go all the way back to 1711 when Queen Anne thought it was the perfect place for Horses to gallop at full stretch. From then and until now Ascot has always attracted the highest standard of horse racing and all of the big players in the sport will be there.
