The third leg of the treble for both the King and Queen and the Gosdens came courtesy of Point Of Law, who triumphed in the Coolmore City Of Troy EBF Maiden Stakes at Newbury.
As Friday's unforgettable afternoon of racing played out, Charles was in attendance with the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh at the Royal Windsor Horse Show. The prestigious event, which features show jumping, driving and endurance competitions, is set to run until Sunday May 17 2026.
