Get in touchWinner of Horse Racing Book of the Year in the 2013 Cross British Sports Books Awards.
In no other avenue of her life is the Queen as relaxed as she is on the racecourses of Britain. Her passion for the Turf finds expression in her patronage of Royal Ascot and the Derby. Less well documented is the joy she derives from spending time with thoroughbreds and the myriad human characters in the sport.
Julian Muscat goes behind the scenes with all the Queen's men to bring to life this depiction of Her Majesty in her element. Interspersed with the history of her patronage of racing are numerous anecdotes of how her passion manifests itself in everyday circumstances. It enunciates the Queen's joy from the inside out. Beautifully illustrated with wonderful photographs.
Processing time is currently 1–2 business working days from completed order.
Orders containing in-stock products, received before 12 noon Monday to Friday, will be processed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after 12 noon Monday to Friday will be dispatched the next working day. All orders are fulfilled by Royal Mail.
Orders that contain pre-order products will be shipped separately at no extra cost to UK-based customers. In-stock products will be shipped in line with our delivery terms above.
Pre-order products will be shipped on their individual release date, which is shown on the product page and directly underneath the ‘Pre-order’ button prior to purchase.
You may receive shipping notifications for orders that contain pre-order products, but these notifications only apply to the in-stock items in your order.
If you live outside the UK and wish to purchase both pre-order products and items that are currently in stock, please place these on separate orders. Due to international shipping regulations, we are unable to split a single order for shipment to customers outside the UK.
If multiple products in one international order have different release dates, the entire order will only be shipped once all products are available. This ensures that all items are sent together in a single shipment.
EU customers can enjoy a hassle-free shopping experience with all taxes and duties paid at checkout. For orders under €150 (excluding shipping and taxes), all VAT and customs duties are included in the price at checkout. No additional charges will apply upon delivery.
Please note: Some EU destinations may charge a handling fee upon delivery. This is beyond our control and must be paid by the customer in order for the product to be released by customs. Please check with your local customs authorities for more information.
For shipments to the United States, an additional 10% tariff surcharge will be included at checkout to cover US import duties and taxes. This charge is calculated automatically during checkout.
The customer is also responsible for any additional customs duties, taxes, or handling fees that may apply once the goods arrive in the US. These charges are beyond our control and must be paid directly to US customs authorities.
Please allow additional time for US shipments, as customs processing may take longer due to tariff clearance.
Shipping charges to the EU and other international destinations are calculated based on current Royal Mail shipping rates. These fees are automatically calculated during checkout based on the weight, size, and destination of your order.
