Her Majesty The Queen studies the horses before the race at the Ever Ready Derby.
From an early age, Queen Elizabeth II has had a keen interest in horses.
Into her reign this has developed into one of her main leisure time activities, with a particular emphasis on the breeding of thoroughbreds for horse racing.
Seen here in a yellow chequered outfit with matching hat and long white gloves holding the official race programme, Her Majesty's face shows one possibly studying which horse to place a right royal bet on.
