In 1846, created for the Illustrated London News captured Ascot Racecourse as it looked nearly 180 years ago.
We’ve used AI to carefully bring that historic illustration to life allowing us to step inside the scene and experience Ascot as it may have appeared in 1846. https://t.co/r7HAO0XfsG

It’s the Big Ascot Food & Wine Festival this weekend, and the racing will be serving up a whole host of treats for you to enjoy!
This weekend has produced some brilliant performances in recent years, with the Tote.co.uk Money Back 2nd Handicap being won last year by multiple Listed winner TENABILITY.
This year's Grand Prix de Paris hero MALTESE CROSS debuted at this fixture last year, finishing ahead of 2026 Royal Ascot winner LOST BOYS in our opening two-year-old race on the Saturday.
Another notable name to feature in 2025 was CROWN OF OAKS, who would go on to win the Balmoral Handicap on Qatar Racing British Champions Day a month later.

Phoenix Of Spain has produced Royal Ascot winners and offspring who can win over sprinting AND staying distances 🐴
But does versatility in breeding translate into a higher stud fee? 🤔 https://t.co/ZHreo66cOL

Nando Parrado made history as Royal Ascot’s longest-priced winner when landing the Coventry Stakes at 150/1! 🏇
But what’s life like for the stallion now he’s retired from racing at the Irish National Stud? https://t.co/M7S6iCx36R
