Jamaica Day at Royal Ascot

Super horse Frankel wasn’t the only big ‘show’ at Royal Ascot this year. There was also a bevy of fine beauties on show as hoards of Jamaica’s finest displayed the very best in what to wear at this year’s Ladies Day.

Not necessarily regulars at the annual sporting suare, a large number of ladies, from or of Jamaican dissent, were present for what was meant to be a special ‘Jamaica Day’ for for eager, and not eager, horse followers.

 

Despite the last-minute cancellation-reasons still unknown-the Jamaica 50 Celebrations was a not to be missed occasion. Honouring Jamaican Athletes and Administrators who have made a significant impact in Olympic Games since 1962 the event was set to make history as the first ever Jamaica Day in Ascot’s history.
