If you can't fight them, join them! So yesterday we watched Ladies Day at Ascot, which also has the biggest race of the week, the Gold Cup.
Here are some of the outlandish hats on show:

The big surprise of the day came when the queen's horse won the Gold Cup. It's the first time in at least 300 years that the reigning monarch has won the cup. The thing is, the queen is the person who presents the cup to the winner, so they had to rope somebody else in to present it to her!
The queen was clearly excited when her horse, Estimate, crossed the finishing line:
Prince Andrew presented the cup to his mother:
Estimate is a magnificent horse, there's no doubt about it...
