SIR MARK PRESCOTT is to train horses in the monarch’s colours for the first time.

Prescott has previously trained a filly called Dark Swan, who raced for the Prince Of Wales and Duchess Of Cornwall, but he never trained for Queen Elizabeth while she was alive.

“I’ve got two rather nice two-year-old fillies,” he said.
