The weather wasn’t on good form offering a mixture of sunshine and showers.
But the outfits were total winners.
Racegoers dazzled in stunning outfits at York Racecourse on Ladies Day today, the second day of the Ebor Festival 2024.
On the track, it was a good day for locals too. Craig Lidster, who trains out of Easingwold, saw his three-year-old Alfa Kellenic win in the British EBF Fillies’ Handicap.
Lidster said: “Five wins in a row, unbelievable. She’s tough filly and what an accolade for the yard, the owners and all my staff. I’m chuffed to bits.”
Alfa Kellenic was ridden by Tom Eaves and came home at 17-2.
Elsewhere, Thunder Run led from pillar to post in the £150,000 Clipper Handicap. Angel Hunter did just enough to hold off a fast-finishing Age Of Gold to land the Autism Awareness EBF Stallions Nursery Handicap.
And Scenic was in a class of her own as she blitzed the field to claim the British EBF & Sir Henry Cecil Galtres Stakes for Ed Walker at York.
The result completed a black-type double on the day for Walker, who had won the Group Two Sky Bet Lowther Stakes with Celandine in the opening race.
If you’ve missed the action so far don’t worry – there are two more days of the Sky Bet Ebor Festival 2024.
