The Bulletin  

THE F. 8.1. ON COMMUNISM  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 75—No. 3874  

Wednesday, May 12, 1954  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

Seppelts  

ROYAL ASCOT, SOCIAL EVENT OF THE SPORTING CALENDAR  

RACECOURSES in England, unlike those in most other lands, are spread  

over the whole country so that wherever the racing enthusiast may be,  

from the apple orchards of Devonshire in the west to the hop gardens of  

Kent in the east, from the English Channel in the south to the Scottish  

Borderland, he will be no more than an hour's journey from racecourse.  

Every year the flat-racing season opens on the last Monday of March  

with meeting at Lincoln, and continues every week-day throughout the  

following eight months—ending with the November Handicap at Manchester.  

The highlights of the flat-racing season are five classic races for three-  

year-olds; the “Two Thousand Guineas” and the “One Thousand Guineas,”  

run at Newmarket during the First Spring Meeting; the Derby and the Oaks,  

run at Epsom at the end of May or beginning of June; and the St. Leger,  

run at Doncaster in September.  

Ascot, the richest and the most fashionable race meeting of the year, has.  

however, no classic race. It is like no other race meeting of the year and  

it attracts the finest horses in the world it is one of the Smartest social  

occasions of the season and it is an opportunity for the ladies to show what  

their dressmakers have been able to create. Newmarket Meeting is  

business meeting; Ascot, on the other hand, is first of all social occasion  

and it produces more pictures in the newspapers of ladies hats and trocKs  

than does any other sporting event in the English calendar.  

Ascot was first established in 1711 by Queen Anne, who decided that the  

long miles of green heath which lay within the Royal manor of Windsor  

should be racecourse. To-day the ancient turf is as smooth as velvet and  

the racecourse is one of the best equipped and still the most fashionable  

England.  

The Ascot Meeting takes place during the third week of June and seven  

races are run on each of the four days. Two of the most important are  

the Royal Hunt Cup and the Ascot, Gold Cup the latter is run over  

distance of 24 miles on terms of weight-for-age. Ascot is always attended  

by the Royal Family, who, during that week, are in residence at nearby  

Windsor Castle and on selected days drive up the course to the Royal  

Enclosure in open carriages drawn by Windsor Greys, ridden by postilions  

wearing jackets of scarlet and gold. The Royal Procession is an unforgettable  

sight and in Coronation Year, 1953, H.M. the Queen and the Duke of  

Edinburgh received tremendous welcome from the huge crowds assembled  

along the course.
