The Queen received some good news arriving back in Windsor for the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
After a turbulent flight back from Balmoral, Her Majesty learned that one of her horses won a race at Newbury. Perfect Alibi took the £5,400 first prize at the time the Queen was heading into RAF Northolt from Aberdeen.
It has been reported how the 13-seater private jet had to abort its landing due to lightning around 2.30pm on Tuesday. The race, scheduled for 2.40pm, saw the filly, which the Queen also bred, hold on from River Of Stars in a close finish.
