| Every duke and earl and peer is here
|
| Everyone who should be here is here
|
| What a smashing, positively dashing spectacle
|
| The ascot opening day
|
| At the gate are all the horses
|
| Waiting for the cue to fly away
|
| What a gripping, absolutely ripping
|
| Moment at the ascot opening day
|
| Pulses rushing, faces flushing
|
| Heartbeats speed up, I have never been so keyed up
|
| And second now they’ll begin to run
|
| Hark a bell is ringing, they are springing forward look, it has begun
|
| What a frenzied moment that was
|
| Didn’t they maintain an exhausting pace?
|
| 'Twas a thrilling, absolutely chilling
|
| Running of the ascot opening race |
