VANIER: This was the festive scene on the balcony of Buckingham Palace Saturday morning. Nearly the whole royal family joined the official birthday celebration for Queen Elizabeth. That includes, of course, its newest member. CNN's Nina dos Santos was there for the big day.</s>NINA DOS SANTOS, CNNMONEY EUROPE EDITOR: Meghan Markle took part in her first major royal engagement just three weeks after tying the knot with her new husband, Prince Harry. This ceremony was the Trooping of the Colour. Since 1748, U.K. monarchs have had two birthday celebrations, one unofficial and one official. The queen turned 92 in April but this was the official ceremony to mark her birthday, the so-called Trooping of the Colour is actually an opportunity for the sovereign to inspect her troops. More than 1,000 soldiers took part in this event, 200 expert cavalry men and about 400 soldiers as part of the marching band as well. One of the highlights of the day was when the royal family gathered upon the balance of Buckingham Palace to wave to the crowds but also to inspect the fly-by of Lancaster bombers, helicopters, fighter jets and also those famous RAF Red Arrows as they flew by with their characteristic trails of red, white and blue smoke. Just as there was one new member of the royal family present at the celebrations in the form of the new Duchess of Sussex, there was also somebody who was noticeably absent. The queen traveled back and forth from the palace to Horse Guards parade on her own because the Duke of Edinburgh, who will turn 97 on Sunday, has retired from royal duties -- Nina dos Santos, CNN, outside Buckingham Palace in London.</s>VANIER: Just one more thing for you. Horse racing fans witnessed history on Saturday. Justified dominated the Belmont Stakes to become the 13th Triple Crown winner. And 52-year-old Mike Smith is now the oldest jockey to achieve that feat. Justify's trainer, Bob Baffert, is no stranger to the Triple Crown because he also trained the 2015 winner, American Pharoah. Thanks for watching. I'm Cyril Vanier. I'm back with the headlines in just moment.
