The 20-year-old was joined by Miss Junior Battle, Lucy-Anne Richford (11), for a ride on the dodgems at the Xtreme Travelling Theme Park, which runs at the People’s Park until 14 August.

Next week, Miss Battle will be opening the Battle ticket kiosk at Liberty Wharf, touring hotels meeting tourists in the Island for the parade, and attending a number of functions and events.

This year’s Battle of Flowers will take place on Thursday 11 August, with the Moonlight Parade following on the evening of Friday 12 August.
