Royal Ascot 2017: The Queen attends British social fixture

The Queen attended Royal Ascot.

The Queen attended Royal Ascot. The weather was hot and the dress code was strict. As a result, the officials ordered the gentlemen to keep their jackets on. The Queen, Prince Charles, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and other members of the Royal Family were processed in horse-drawn carriages up the Straight Mile. They stood with heads bowed during a minute's silence to remember the victims of Grenfell Tower disaster and Manchester terror attacks. Frankie Dettori, 46, won't ride at the meeting because of a shoulder injury. He will be replaced by a jockey. It runs until Friday.
