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.

  1. Brian is a good name for a horse. It's not godlike though, is it? He's very famously, he's not the son of God. He's a very naughty mind. Yes, that's such a good point. There was another guy called Brian Poulson from Bracknell who said, there is no way they should be changing the name. Every horse should be called Brian. It's such an extreme alternative. What a world. Horse racing.
