British royal family news has revealed that the Queen would have been forgiven for having a couple of drinks in celebration last night. The reason to celebrate came after the Queen enjoyed a win at the horse racing on Thursday afternoon. It is the second time in as many months that Her Majesty would have been celebrating winning a big race.
It was once again the returning Tactical that won the race for Her Majesty. The Queen is a huge lover of horse racing, and was likely watching the racing on ITV on Thursday cheering on the two-year-old as it appeared from back to make a charge for the line in the closing stages.
British Royal Family News: Big Winner For The Queen
It was another memorable day for the Queen, as Tactical won by one and a quarter lengths from his old advisory Yazaman. Yazaman went into the race as one of the favourites despite being beaten by Tactical at Royal Ascot in June. On that occasion, Tactical also won by a length and a quarter over the shorter distance of five furlongs.
There had been doubt regarding whether Tactical would be able to deal with the step up in distance, but he was irrepressible over the six furlongs. Andrew Balding trains the house, and was left under no doubt that Tactical was a deserving winner, and also revealed that Her Majesty was likely cheering on her horse from home.
British Royal Family News: More Success To Come
The race was part of the July Festival at Newmarket, which is going ahead behind closed doors due to the restrictions that are in place due to the coronavirus. Tactical was successful in the Tattersalls July Stakes, which was a Group 2 race. And, there could be more success on the way for the same horse.
Tactical has already been entered in two more races before the end of the flat season, with the first of those being the Curragh Keeneland Phoenix Stakes in August. That would be a huge test for the two-year-old as it will be the first time that he has stepped up to Group 1. Tactical also has an entry for the Doncaster Weatherbys Racing Bank, but that race doesn’t take place until the 10th September.
