CNN —Britain’s King Charles III is set to feature prominently at this year’s Royal Ascot, as the race week bids to forge a new identity since the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Organizers are also determined to pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth II and have permanently renamed one of the races in her honor.
“His Majesty The King has approved the renaming of the Platinum Jubilee Stakes to The Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes.”Queen Elizabeth II loved horse racing and attending Royal Ascot.
Royal Ascot organizers are prepared for protesters bidding to disrupt the schedule this week.
Frankie Dettori said he expects to cry during the last Royal Ascot of his career.
