Yellow fever hits hat punters
Published:THE QUEEN will wear a yellow hat to Ascot on Thursday according to Ladbrokes.
The bookies report an inspired gamble for the colour with punters piling on despite Her Majesty’s outfit at the wedding. Yellow is now the 2/1 favourite from blue at 4/1.
And those who think she might take things one step further can take the 20/1 that she dusts off the canary-yellow number from the Wedding to wear on thursday.
Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes said: “Hat punters have got yellow fever again. We got caught out at the wedding and after results on the first day we’re praying for pink or purple.”
