We think the queue for Royal Ascot looks like an artsy film poster
Attendees have donned their top hats, tails, and fabulous fascinators for Day Two of the races
Royal Ascot 2025 has so far delivered a thrilling mix of racing glory, style, and royal tradition.


On opening day, Field of Gold impressed with a commanding win in the St James’s Palace Stakes, while American Affair and Haatem secured standout performances in other marquee contests.
The carriage procession commemorating its 200‑year legacy featured King Charles III and Queen Camilla, though Princess Beatrice and Zara Tindall notably stepped aside from the ride due to limited space.


The fashion stakes have been equally high, with racegoers and royals alike dazzling in bold hats, elegant suits, and chic ensembles - Princess Beatrice even channelled her auntie Diana with a pink gingham look from Beulah London.
With sun‑soaked days ahead and a heatwave on the way, the spirit of Royal Ascot, from thrilling finishes to sartorial splendour, remains in full swing.
Racegoers will return to Ascot racecourse today for the second day of fun.


Photos of the queue show visitors in their regalia, and we think the pictures look a bit like an artsy film poster or album cover.
From top hats and tails to fascinators and heels, these pictures prove that Royal Ascot is one of the biggest fashion events of the social calendar.
