EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the historic year of 1953, the royal box at Royal Ascot is a scene of unbridled excitement as Queen Elizabeth II's colt, Choir Boy, triumphs in the Royal Hunt Cup on 17 June. The image, taken just two weeks after the Queen's Coronation, showcases the joy and camaraderie among the British monarchy as they celebrate this remarkable victory. The Duchess of Kent, identifiable by her white pillbox hat, is captured clapping enthusiastically, her expression reflecting the collective elation in the box. Princess Margaret, the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Queen Mother can also be seen smiling and looking on with pride. The young and radiant Queen Elizabeth II, dressed in a stylish hat and suit, beams with happiness as she watches the thrilling race unfold. Horse racing held a special place in the hearts of the royal family, serving as a cherished hobby and a longstanding tradition. The Royal Hunt Cup, a prestigious event in the racing calendar, added to the excitement and anticipation of the day. The image encapsulates the shared interests and moments of joy that brought the royal family together during this significant period in British history. This photograph is a testament to the enduring bond between the monarchy and the British people, as they celebrated the Coronation of their new Queen and the success of her beloved horse, Choir Boy, at the Royal Ascot. The scene in the royal box is a poignant reminder of the unity and happiness that can be found in the simple pleasure of watching a horse race.
