A little rain couldn’t stop a sea of green in the packed crowds on day three of Cheltenham Festival - also known as St Patrick’s Thursday at the races.
It was a day where horses and jockeys put on a special show to try to get closer to winning the sought-after Prestbury cup. As usual, there were a number of stars in the crowd including Sir Alex Ferguson, Peter Crouch and Carol Vorderman was spotted once again.
Princess Anne was also in attendance wearing a grey coat, coloured scarf and matching black hat and gloves. The Queen Consort, Camilla attended as an honorary member of the Jockey Club, yesterday.
