Plus: the Jockey Club's free festival on the Hill, drowned by the weather; Aidan O'Brien's 50th British Classic and his son's Oaks; Bay City Roller's thrashing of the world's best, Calandagan; and the riding masterclasses on a day when nobody knew where the good ground was — led by Laura Pearson's remarkable return.
