Day 4

Day 5

• Bunker made a good run at the Chesham Stakes, but Berkshire was the clear winner.  Ihtimal came in third place.

• The Hardwicke Stakes was won by Thomas Chippendale.  The victory was short-lived and tragic, however, as the poor horse collapsed after the race from a suspected heart attack, and has since passed away. It was a moment of terrible heartbreak during Royal Ascot 2015.

• Undrafted triumphed over Brazen Beau in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes. 

• The Wokingham Stakes was won by York Glory, followed by Shropshire and Dinkum Diamond. 

• The Duke of Edinburgh Handicap was won by Ryan Moore on Opinion.  Stencive and Ustura came in second and third place, followed by Caravan Rolls On in fourth.

• The winner of the Queen Alexandra Stakes was Chiberta King, followed by Shahwardi in second place. 

It is still so hard to believe that this year’s Royal Ascot is already over.  All five days featured thrilling and surprising victories by unexpected contenders—as well as more than a few favourites performing exactly as expected.  For the most part, it was another amazing year—aside from the tragic death of Thomas Chippendale.
