Watch chaos at Royal Ascot as winning horse Lazzat goes mad and almost KOs groundsworker with kick
CHAOS hit Royal Ascot when winning horse Lazzat almost drop-kicked a groundsworker in the head after getting loose and going mad. The Wathnan-owned sprinter just bagged more than half a million quid for winning the Platinum Jubilee Stakes. Advertisement But when jockey James Doyle was about to be interviewed by ITV, the horse appeared to get spooked by a cloth being raised in front of him. He dumped Doyle to the turf, turned round then galloped off down the track. Groundsworkers tried their best to calm the horse as he hit top stride. But it came inches from turning incredibly nasty indeed when Lazzat lashed out with his hind legs at one of the men. Advertisement He just missed his head but the man fell through the running rail like a drunk boxer through the ropes. There was then further drama in the immediate aftermath as rumours swirled that Doyle only had ten minutes to weigh in and make the victory official. Doyle needed his saddle but the problem was that Lazzat was still half-way down the track. It meant Lazzat, a notoriously tricky customer who had just been bought for enormous money, even kept King Charles waiting. Advertisement Most read in Horse Racing Comment The monarch was there to present the winning trophy to connections of the horse. Fortunately, Lazzat was eventually brought under control, Doyle was driven down to collect his saddle and then rushed back in a motor. More to follow.

Maguire eight back as Jeeno extends lead at Women's PGA Championship
IRELAND'S LEONA MAGUIRE is eight shots off the lead held by Jeeno Thitikul at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship in Texas. Maguire dropped back with a second-round 74 after an encouraging start on Thursday. The Cavan golfer sits in a share for 16th, two-over for the tournament in testing conditions at Fields Ranch East at PGA Frisco north of Dallas. You can follow the leaderboard here> Maguire would have hoped to hit the ground running on Friday, but five bogeys in her opening seven holes saw her start slowly. Starting on the back nine, she dropped shots on the 10th, 11th, 12th, 14th and 16th. That sequence was broken with a birdie on hole 15, while others followed on the third and the ninth as she recovered well. Making the cut will have been Maguire's first target this weekend, however, having missed four in a row and slid to 87 in the world rankings. Advertisement Thitikul closed with back-to-back birdies in a two-under par 70 to stretch her lead to three strokes as sweltering heat and high winds again tested golfers. Jeeno, the world number two from Thailand, started the day with a one-shot lead over Australia's Minjee Lee. Like Maguire, she teed off on the 10th hole and after a bogey at 12 was back in control with birdies at the 15th and third. She gave a stroke back at the par-three fourth, where she missed the green, but rolled in a 12-foot birdie at the eighth and a four-footer at the ninth to finish 36 holes on six-under 138. 'The wind and the rough,' the 22-year-old said of the toughest challenges on a day when only 14 players broke par. The 22-year-old, who has won already this year on both the Ladies European Tour and the LPGA Tour, is chasing her first major title. She was three strokes clear of Australian Minjee Lee and Japan's Rio Takeda. Only seven players finished the day under par for the tournament. US veteran Lexi Thompson was alone in fourth after a 70 for two-under 142 with South Korean Lee So-mi, Japan's Chisato Iwai and American Auston Kim sharing fifth on one-under 143. World number one Nelly Korda carded a two-over 74, finally mustering two birdies in her last three holes to finish the day eight strokes off the lead. Maguire begins her third round at 3.50pm Irish time, paired with Bailey Tardy. – © AFP 2025

‘Extraordinary' Royal Ascot row breaks out as livid trainer blasts his own jockey over ‘terrible' ride
AN 'extraordinary' Royal Ascot row has broken out - after a jockey slated his own jockey over a 'terrible' ride. French handler Jerome Reynier was absolutely furious with US-based jockey Flavien Prat's effort on Facteur Cheval in Wednesday's Group 1 Prince of Wales's Stakes. 2 Flavien Prat has won over £100million in his career but was slated for a 'terrible' ride by a furious trainer at Royal Ascot Credit: AP 2 Facteur Cheval was up with the red-hot pace early on - a move that proved costly as he ran out of gas and finished only sixth The six-year-old gelding, who has won almost £4million in his brilliant career, was sent off 25-1 for the 1m2f contest. But his trainer believed those odds were nowhere near a true reflection of his ability. And he clearly thought that the horse had a chance if Prat followed his instructions. However, that all appeared to go out the window early when Facteur Cheval chased breakneck 100-1 pace-setter Continuous. Facteur Cheval was later dropped back but unsurprisingly ran out of gas and finished a limp sixth of eight behind superstar winner Ombudsman. Reynier, still seething when speaking to the media days later, hit out at Prat's tactics - which, despite the disastrous effort, still netted the horse's owners £14,000. He said: "He (the horse) has come out of the race well, despite his jockey doing absolutely nothing to help him. "I think it was perhaps the worst ride given to one of my horses since I became a trainer. Most read in Horse Racing "In a race with loads of pace, he elected to lead the chase [of the pacemaker]. "He was the first to commit on the turn for home and launched his attack three wide with no cover and too far out. "He thought he was at Santa Anita or Del Mar where they have short straights and the tracks are flat. "And I don't think it was a judicious move to use a jockey who rides in that style. "It was just a terrible ride." French-bron Prat is one of America's top jockeys and had amassed prize money earnings there of more than £11m this calendar year alone. Over the course of his career in the States, Prat has recorded 1,995 wins and earned more than £150m in winnings.
