It’s off to the races for royal couple William and Catherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Will and Kate made a public showing at the Derby Festival, a prestigious U.K. horse race where William’s grandmother the Queen had a trusty steed in competition.
At Epsom Downs Racecourse, in a suburb southwest of London, the newlyweds caused a stir, with Will in traditional top hat and tails. Kate opted for a cream-colored outfit with a metallic woven fascinator headpiece.
Prince Harry kept the pair company in the royal box, looking upon their grandmother’s horse Carlton House. Though Carlton House came in third place, the group was all smiles, including their cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
