The racecourse that welcomed the Queen to the Derby for nearly 70 years has paid tribute to Britain's longest-reigning monarch following her death. The Jockey Club, which owns Epsom Racecourse in Surrey and runs its Derby, said there was "profound loss". The club said the Queen was synonymous with the world-famous Epsom Derby event and there were "many happy memories".
