The paddock is filled with gentlemen dressed in their finest attire, eagerly discussing their favorite racehorses and placing bets. Among them stands Mister Jersey, an esteemed figure known for his expertise in horse breeding and racing. The atmosphere is electric as HRH The Prince of Wales graces the event with his presence.
