"Her Majesty has been one of the greatest and most influential supporters in the history of horseracing," a statement read.

"It is right, therefore, that all racing is suspended for today and tomorrow as we begin to grieve Her Majesty's passing and remember her extraordinary life and contribution to our sport and our nation."
The Queen is one of the biggest faces of global horse racing and had been approaching 2,000 winners as a racehorse owner.
