A violent brawl broke out between two men at Royal Ascot, with punches and kicks flying as horrified racegoers looked on.
Footage from the prestigious Berkshire racecourse shows the suited pair lashing out at one another in broad daylight as onlookers shouted in disbelief.
One man, dressed in a beige suit, initially lands a punch on his opponent, who is wearing grey, but is then battered with a series of blows to the head.
He is later seen with blood pouring down his face, while the man in the grey suit is dragged away by another individual. He wipes his bloodied hands on his pale trousers, leaving visible stains.
Several onlookers attempted to intervene but were unable to stop the fight, while others shouted for the men to stop. One group was heard yelling: “Stop, stop, boys.”
The brawl unfolded near a large crowd of punters who had gathered under umbrellas, seemingly unaware of the fight taking place nearby.
It is unclear what sparked the altercation.
Thames Valley Police has been contacted for comment.
A similar incident occurred during last year’s Royal Ascot, when two men were filmed throwing punches before tumbling down a flight of stairs. One woman appeared to be caught in the crossfire as guests struggled to separate the pair.
