Clare Balding presents coverage from the closing day of the iconic race meeting. This famous racing festival was extended to include the Saturday in 2002 as part of the celebrations for the Queen's golden jubilee. A sell-out occasion enjoyed by 80,000 people, there is sure to be a celebratory atmosphere on the course.

The sprinters take centre stage in the main race of the day, the Diamond Jubilee Stakes. Run over three-quarters-of-a-mile, all eyes will be on visiting equine royalty in the form of Black Caviar, Australia's fastest-ever horse and a true global superstar.

Clare is joined by Willie Carson, Mick Fitzgerald, Rishi Persad, Suzi Perry, Ian Bartlett and John Parrott. Race commentary comes from Jim McGrath.
