Epsom Races - H.R.H. Prince Albert and H.R.H. Prince Frederick William of Prussia at the Grand Stand, 1856. 'Although there was no cheering there was no lack of curiosity to obtain a glimpse of the future husband of the eldest daughter of our beloved Queen. The Royal visitors appeared to take great interest in the race for the Derby; but perhaps what astonished them the most was the excitement of the Betting Ring, and the extraordinary coup-d'oeil presented by the immense numbers on the ground, amongst whom the utmost order everywhere prevailed. They left the course immediately after the great event was decided; and Prince Albert, before taking his departure, sent for Mr. Dorling, and personally expressed his obligation for the admirable arrangements made for the accommodation of his distinguished visitors'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
