With the Cup just about to run, Dianne Marchment, Jo White and Karen Quick were joined by Jaymee and Jade McRae to enjoy a glass of bubbly as the big race was about to be run.
Knight’s Choice took out the 163rd running of the Cup in a close finish, which required a photo finish for the first four across the line.
The Cup is the richest two-mile handicap in the world and has been run since 1861, except during the two major world wars and has been deemed as a pubic holiday since 1876.
