Exhibition reveals The Queen's love of racing

By Charlotte Ricca-Smith on 24th-Apr-2012

The Queen has had a life-long interest in horse racing, which is revealed in the exhibition

A photography exhibition that captures the Queen’s most memorable moments in racing, will be touring the UK this summer.

Informal photos

Entitled ‘All The Queen’s Horses’ the exhibition contains 50 images, which show an informal side of the Queen not often revealed to the public. Also on display are several rarely seen photographs from the 1940s and 50s of the then Princess Elizabeth with her mother.

The exhibition will be opened at Sandown Park Racecourse at the bet365 Ultimate Celebration of Racing, on 27-28 April. It will then be taken to other racecourses all around the country. A full list of venues and dates can be found at www.lovetheraces.com.

Her Majesty's pleasure

Many of the photos can also be seen in a new book called Her Majesty’s Pleasure: How Horseracing Enthrals the Queen. It is being published by Racing Post Books to coincide with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.
