Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh said that he would now slow down and reduce his duties, stating that he had "done [his] bit". His wife, the Queen, gave him the title Lord High Admiral for his 90th birthday. While staying at the royal residence at Sandringham, Norfolk, on 23 December 2011, the Duke suffered chest pains and was taken to the cardio-thoracic unit at Papworth Hospital, Cambridgeshire, where he underwent successful coronary angioplasty and stenting. He was discharged on 27 December. On 4 June 2012, during the celebrations in honour of his wife's Diamond Jubilee, Philip was taken from Windsor Castle to the King Edward
Duke of Edinburgh Stakes run at Royal Ascot in 1914. The title was later bestowed on a mile and a half handicap race at the same meeting. In 1999 the race was renamed in honour of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The name "Duke of Edinburgh Stakes" had previously been used for a two-year-old race run at Ascot in autumn whose winners included the future Champion Hurdler Sea Pigeon. The race has been won by horses who have gone on to win at Group level, including Blueprint (Jockey Club Stakes), Young Mick (Cumberland Lodge Stakes) and Fox Hunt (Deutsches St Leger).
