It was a free day in London today and everyone went on different adventures. From the heading back to Royal Ascot to the Tower of London, watching the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, catching the State of Origin game and finally coming back together to watch The Temptations show at the West End. Another Epic day.

However, the pinnacle of the day (and possibly the week) ensued as we gladly accepted the coveted invitation to Juddmonte Farms Newmarket, where we had 90 minutes as their guests and they paraded all 5 of their stallions. From new boy Expert Eye to the stunning looking Bated Breath, the magnificently proportioned Oasis Dream (who at 23 is the “old man” of the group to the super sires. Kingman has already been a revelation at stud and of course was a magnificent racehorse in his own right, but all eyes were on superstar racehorse and stallion in Frankel. This magnificent 16.1 hand stallion had a perfect winning record in 14 from 14 with 10 Group One races and his 147 is the highest Timeform (the thoroughbred rating’s bible) rating in history – for some context Winx’s highest rating was 134.

So folks – that’s the summary of our first week on tour and quite frankly it’s been nothing short of astonishing

Our love affair with all things equestrian continued as we ventured to the famed Newmarket horse training grounds on Monday and we were privileged to stand on Warren Hill as some of Britain’s greatest trainers worked their “strings” of thoroughbreds in front of us. Not at all open to the public we were, through Discover Newmarket, able to have access to such a revered training establishment and we witnessed the prowess of the equine athletes and gained insights into the artistry of their training.

Our journey truly kicked into high gear with an unforgettable outing to Epsom Downs on Oaks day, where we were graced with an exclusive private box in the prestigious Duchess Stand and revelled in the lap of luxury while being treated to silver service fit for royalty. Incredibly, our private box was right above the finishing post and parade ring so our view was unsurpassed and as the thunderous hooves pounded the turf, our hearts raced alongside them. Indeed we were privileged to see incredible champion jockey, Frankie Dettori, guide Soul Sister to victory in the Oaks and witnessed his incredible “star jump” victory celebration.

Today we explored Newmarket, considered the birthplace of thoroughbred horse racing and the largest breeding center in the UK.

The passion of the crowd is something else..

We asked Frankie Dettori to win the Oaks for Epic Journeys...and he duly obliged
