From a June 4, 2022 article in the UK's National News publication:

On June 4, 2022, forty of Queen Elizabeth II's jockeys past and present lined up in a spectacular guard of honour for the royal party, before racing on Derby Day at Epsom, in England.

The greats of the saddle, dressed in the famous purple and gold silks, lined up on the steps overlooking the hat-box winner's enclosure before heading onto the track to greet the Princess Royal and other members of the entourage to commemorate the jubilee.

The queen was unable to attend due to ill-health.

Steve Cauthen, who won the Derby three times and was a regular in the queen's silks in the 1980s, flew in from Kentucky to be part of the parade.

"It was an honour to be invited over here for the queen's platinum jubilee celebrations," he said.

"I've been looking forward to this ever since I received the invite. It is such a thrill to be here with all these great jockeys. It was always an honour to ride for the queen and to celebrate her in this way is wonderful."
