Ladies Day-to-Night! Racegoers look worse for wear as they stagger home from the third day of Ascot

Ascot revellers looked worse for wear this evening as they left the Berkshire racegoers after hours of partying. 

Earlier in the day, glamorous guests had dressed themselves up to the nines to attend the event, which is considered to be the crown jewel in the racing calendar.

While its competitors Cheltenham, Epsom and Aintree have ditched their dress codes, Ascot still has a fairly strict clothing policy. 

Ladies are required to wear ‘formal daywear’ – meaning dresses have to fall just above the knee and straps need to one inch or wider. 

Having made it past security in high heels this morning, racegoers were pictured giving their feet a break as they left the premises in flip flops. 

Clasping a blue vape in one hand, one woman – wearing a pretty yellow mini dress – was seen without her high heels as she exited Ascot with friends. 

Having also removed her headpiece, the woman was relying on a male friend to steer her in the right direction home.

Despite standing in the sunshine all day, the man was still wearing his suit – but violated the dress code by untucking his white shirt.

What’s more, another woman was spotted swigging from a bottle of apple-flavoured Sourz as she made her way home from the Berkshire race course in flip flops. 

Meanwhile,  another woman was pictured being sick outside Ascot as she left Ladies Day.

Sitting on the side of a flowerbed, the woman – also wearing flip flops – was hunched over while her friend rubbed her back. 

Offering some assistance, one concerned member of staff was seen holding a bag open in front of the woman. 

Earlier in the week, other revellers were pictured sitting barefoot on the pavement as they enjoyed cigarette breaks.

What’s more, the races proved to be too much for one barefooted female fan – who had to be carried home over one man’s shoulder. 

On the Royal Ascot website, the organisers have outlined their behavioral code as a warning to new visitors. 

It reads: ‘Drunkenness, rowdy behaviour or intimidating other Members, their guests and staff will not be tolerated.’ 

The they go on to state that they reserve the right to remove people who are engaging in ‘behaviour which may disrupt or impair the experiences of other attendees’. 

Although the Royal Enclosure remains a member’s only space, members of the public can visit the Queen Anne Enclosure – with tickets starting £49.

This year, Royal Ascot has paid tribute via renaming a race in the late Queen’s honour. 

The Platinum Jubilee Stakes, a six-furlong sprint which is staged on the Saturday of Ascot’s five day meeting, will from now on be known as the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes.

Queen Elizabeth II had 24 winners in total, having been a keen racehorse owner, with her final triumph coming by way of Tactical in the Windsor Castle Stakes three years ago.

Choir Boy raced home as her first ever winner during the 1953 Royal Hunt Cup, which occurred during the same week of Her Late Majesty’s coronation at Westminster Abbey.
