There's a trophy given out at Ascot Ladies Day to the owner of the winning racehorse. The trophy is presented by the Queen, but that causes a problem when she wins it. She has won it before, and Prince Andrew did step in to play the role of the Queen, presenting it to the Queen.

Other times ASCOT came up
In 2015, lots of people called Brian protested after Thames Valley Police announced that they were going to change the name of one of their police horses from Brian to, they said, a godlike name such as Hercules. This was if the horse passed its tests to be a good police horse basically and to be a qualified police horse. Various people called Brian kicked up a fuss. Brian Lewis from Ascot said, I think it's outrageous. Brian is a good name for a horse. It's not godlike though, is it?
