AP McCoy has recounted the funny story of where the Queen put him in his place at Royal Ascot.
The legendary jockey was on TV remembering Queen Elizabeth II after she passed away earlier this week.
It was no secret that the Queen was a massive horse racing fan and McCoy spoke of the time he watched some Royal Ascot action with her and was cheekily put in his place.

McCoy appeared on Good Morning Britain and spoke of how after a race finished he left his seat ready to leave only for the Queen to query where he was going.
He said: "Once as Royal Ascot I was in the box next to the Royal Ascot box and a representative asked would I go in and watch some racing with her Majesty.
"So I did, I sat down and watched some racing with her and unfortunately the little bit of Irish came out with me and I forgot the protocol and decided after the race I would get up and she looked up to me as to say as if to say 'have you got somewhere better to go' so she had a sense of humour as well.
"I sat back down. I thought she'd be bored of me after five minutes and I said 'I thought you'd be bored of me by now so I thought I better go' and she just started laughing. "
