Lester Piggott final Royal Ascot Winner Gold Cup Day 1993

This truly is history in the making - even more poignant as it was the day the King renounced his throne to the Young Pretender. Yes it's the day Lester rode his final Royal Ascot winner College Chapel in the Cork & Orrery Stakes for the great Vincent O'Brien and one can't help fighting back a tear seeing the 76 year old Vincent lead in the 58 year old Lester into the winner's enclosure. Forty five minutes later a young Frankie Dettori clocks up a double victory in consecutive years on Drum Taps in The Ascot Gold Cup.
