Racegoers returned in style to the Welcome To Yorkshire Ebor Festival today.

The sun shone and the crowds flocked to Knavesmire to witness skydivers, top sport and much more.

In the feature race, Mishriff provided trainer John Gosden with a second Juddmonte International in four years.

Mishriff left the opposition standing in the closing stages under a confident ride by David Egan.

There was a shock earlier in the day when Royal Patronage, the outsider of five at 25-1, ran his rivals into the ground to take the Group Three honours in the Tattersalls Acomb Stakes.

In the style stakes, the York crowd proved up to the mark too. On the York Gin Fashion Lawn, hosted by YorkMix Radio, the first winners were crowned.

Judged by Jack D March and YorkMix’s Laura Castle, the most dapper racegoers took away prizes of York Gin hampers.

And there are three more days to go!
