To which she replied: “Unfortunately there were some nice things but nothing too heartbreaking. Thank you.”
The incident is a devastating end to the weekend for Kate after she began it by wowing her followers again online.
She left them in complete awe as she wore a sexy see-through outfit live on TV that resembled Wednesday Addams.
Kate had previously revealed how her foray into horse racing was all pretty much by accident - and it came following an afternoon at the races that would have put most people off the sport.
She said: “My first ever race meeting was on a dreary, mid-week jump card at Worcester in August 1999. The weather was awful and the calibre of racing was even worse.
“There was a bumper horse in the last race called Red Radish, whose name I will never forget because he got loose and caused about a half an hour delay to the concluding bumper.
“Barely a soul had hung around for the last race. However, my Dad and I were having the greatest day that we stayed to the bitter end after they had eventually rescued Red Radish from Worcester town centre and the race was finally able to start.
“Ever since that day, I have never wanted to do anything else in my life but work in horse racing.”
Kate also brings a wealth of racing knowledge to her TV role having previously worked for trainers including Polly Gundry and Philip Hobbs.
