Will Queen attend Royal Ascot at all after pulling out of first day of racing?

Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

The Queen will not attend the first day of Royal Ascot as she has health issues. Her Majesty's horse Estimate won the Gold Cup in 2013. The Queen's health has been a problem recently. She has missed a number of engagements. The Royal race begins today (June 14).

The Queen will not attend the first day of Royal Ascot this year. She is being assessed by doctors. The Queen's horse Reach For The Moon will take part in Friday's Hampton Court Stakes. Last year, the Queen attended the fifth day and will appear on Saturday June 18. The Berkshire racecourse is a 15-minute drive from Windsor Castle.

The Queen is not attending Royal Ascot. Princess Anne is most likely to replace her. Anne has competed in the Olympics in Montreal in 1976 in eventing. She also stood in for her mother at Epsom Derby in early June.
