In no other avenue of her life is the Queen as relaxed as she is on the racecourses of Britain. Her passion for the Turf finds expression in her patronage of Royal Ascot & the Derby. Less well documented is the joy she derives from spending time with thoroughbreds & the myriad human characters in the sport. Plainly at ease in their company she enjoys nothing more than talking horses in the way trainers & jockeys do on a daily basis. In this respect horse racing is in a privileged position. It has been afforded a unique insight into Her Majesty at her leisure. From visits to horsemen in her employ & her regular contact with them has emerged a rare portrait: one free of the shackles of official duty & one in which the Queens delight in the Sport of Kings is the overriding image.

Interspersed with the history of her patronage of racing are numerous anecdotes of how her passion manifests itself in everyday circumstances. It enunciates the Queens joy from the inside out. ...
