Platinum Jubilee celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II continue throughout the weekend with horse racing at the Derby at Epsom Downs on Saturday, June 4.
The monarch will miss the event amid "episodic mobility concerns" as she paced herself on the long holiday weekend after bowing out of Friday’s Service of Thanksgiving church service at St. Paul’s Cathedral.
This marks only the third time in her 70-year reign she's missed the Epsom event.
The queen's only daughter, Princess Anne, will represent the family on the queen's behalf.
