The Royal Hunt race starts and we see several shots of the horses running in the race. C/U of man in top hat looking through binoculars. The horses come over the finishing line - King's Troop is the winner. The Queen and Prince Philip make their way to the winner's enclosure. Jockey Geoff Lewis is seen dismounting there. More great hats - these ones look like they're made out of bubble bath.
