Frocks and first place - here's day two of Cheltenham Festival

With a record breaking 68,000 people at the first day of Cheltenham Festival, today is set to be just as popular for the highly anticipated Ladies Day.

There was big wins for some spectators yesterday too.

Made in Chelsea star, Georgia Toffolo, picked up £37,000 in the first race! She'll be donating the funds to the British Red Cross and the Disasters Emergency Committee Appeal, encouraging other winners to put their proceeds to charity too.

The Duchess of Cornwall has cancelled her visit to the race course. She was due to present the feature race trophy - The Queen Mother Champion Chase.

Camilla is said to be "pacing herself" after contracting Covid 19 recently.

Instead Princess Anne visited Cheltenham Race Course to present the prize to the winners.

Energumene won a dramatic running of the Betway Queen Mother Champion Chase for Paul Townend and Willie Mullins.

The much-anticipated rematch between the Irish star (5-2) and Nicky Henderson's Shishkin did not materialise as the latter never looked happy and was pulled up.

Mullins' other contender, Chacun Pour Soi, parted company with his rider and it was Venetia Williams' Funambule Sivola who came home in second.

The weather might be less enticing than yesterday, but it hasn't stopped the crowds!
