Despite the brisk spring conditions, ladies were spotted flashing some flesh – and a few tattoos - while they enjoyed the festivities.

As always on race-day the bars were packed and revellers were seen clutching drinks as they soaked up the atmosphere.

The excitement was all too much for one race-fan who ended up taking a tumble.

And a man was spotted tripping into a friend as she excitedly clutched a betting slip.

Known for its lively fans, the event does not have a strict dress code like Royal Ascot.

However, the guidance on its website reads: "Although there is no official dress code, smart is preferable and is often adopted.
