Clapping her hands and beaming as her horse Estimate claimed victory in Royal Ascot ’s Gold Cup in 2013, the clip of the Queen has been repeatedly shown in a look back on her life since she died.
It was the first time in the race’s 207-year history that it had been won by a reigning monarch and also in the clip was Mr Warren, her bloodstock and racing adviser.
