As ever we have a selection of photos from the day’s action, on another brilliantly sunny day on the South Downs.
On this page and those linked are 53 photos from Friday’s Glorious action, though if you are on the Observer app you can see all the pictures on a single page. We’ll be adding to this gallery as the fixture carries on.
This is our round-up of results and reaction from Friday’s racing and this is our Ladies Day gallery.
We’ll have more QGF coverage here as it draws to an end – and all the reaction once it’s over.
