Britain’s Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton had an unlucky day at the Cheltenham races yesterday (13.03.07).
William arrived at the prestigious horseracing event in his black Audi saloon car with brunette Kate and his cousin Zara Phillips.
The royal group were guests of multi-millionaire Trevor Hemmings, who owns Blackpool Tower and a collection of racehorses.
William is thought to have lost £62.50 and Kate was £45 down at the end of the day.
But William was delighted when one of Mr Hemmings’ horses, Juveigneur, came second in the 4pm race.
A source told Britain’s Daily Express newspaper: ‘William was going crazy, jumping up and down and waving his arms about.
‘It was one of his few bits of good luck all day, although he had another horse that came in second, Granit Jack, in the first race of the day.’ William bet £10 each way on all six races. He won £30 on the first race and £27.50 on Juveigneur but lost £20 on every other race.
Kate bet £5 each way on all six races but only won on Granit Jack.
Both the prince and fashion buyer Kate were dressed for a day at the races in tweed.
William, who enjoyed a skiing holiday in Switzerland with Kate last week, is on Army leave before he begins specialist training as an armoured reconnaissance troop leader at Bovington camp in Dorset later this month.
