The frocks were fabulous, the hats spectacular, and the racing sublime.

York Racecourse served up another memorable Ladies Day at the Ebor Festival – and it was even blessed with sunshine!

England Test star Johnny Bairstow was at the races for the second day in a row – his ownership collective the Brontë Collection scored a winner with Indian Run in the Tattersalls Acomb Stakes yesterday (Wednesday).

And Newcastle United assistant manager Jason Tindall was also in the crowd.

YorkMix Radio‘s Laura Castle was hosting the Ebor Fashion Lawn. There was a lot of competition to be named the most stylish racegoer – here are the winners:

On the track, Warm Heart toughed it out to take the big race, the Pertemps Network Yorkshire Oaks, for Aidan O’Brien in a thrilling finish from Free Wind.

The James Doyle-ridden 9-1 winner just got the verdict by a head from Frankie Dettori’s mount.

Here are some of the sights from one of York’s biggest sporting and social events.
