One point to Outpost and one point to Flyingbolt so far. Still researching the Magnier one. There is definitely at least one more (totally unrelated to the Magniers)

The Aga Khans grandfather owned Bahram Rose Royale and Udaipur am pretty sure they carried the same colours.

Correct Ged.  Not 100% certain about Hypericum colours but ssems pretty certain and E.VII AND QE11 defo correct.
By:

KHALID ABDULLA entries closed, as Ged says there are not all five with IDENTICAL colours. Toulon wore the french colours. My mistake but I did correct it.

One point to Ged for the Royal Colours.

Wouldn't Highclere (the filly) do, rather than Hypericum?

Black, White Cap, White buttonhole.

List of classic winners is endless but I`ll list one of each:

Derby - HYPERION
1000 - HERRINGBONE
2000 - GARDEN PATH
Oaks - OUIJA BOARD
St Leger - HERRINGBONE

Other 4 colours are Aga Khan, Abdulla, Tabor and Magnier

The Derby colours are not at Ascot this week though, are they?
By:

When: 19 Jun 12 19:06
Don`t know mate, I`m hazarding a guess although he only has 3 horses in training I think.

The only other colours I can think of that would fit the profile are the Sobell/Ballymacoll Stud of sky blue, yellow cap with white spots, but I think they have only been successful in 4 of the 5 classics.

What about the Rothschild family?  Couldn't name the horses without googling but they've got Russelliana going in the Coronation.

Ged - correct, not sure how I missed Highclere.

The Mighty Mac, Lord Derby does not have a runner this week and pretty sure none of the several Aga Khans won all five classics. 

SLB - great stuff!! Two points. Got any more?

Bahram won the Triple Crown in 1936
Udaipur won the Oaks in 1932
Rose Royale won the 1000 guineas in 1957
all owned by the present Aga Khans grandfather.

Correct Wildman. All owned by Aga Khan III so reasonable to assume they all wore the hooped colours.  Good stuff.

Scores so far

SLB 2 (Glanely and Miller)
Flyingbolt 1 (for getting Abdulla correct)
Outpost 1 (for getting Abdulla more correct)
Geoff M 1 (for Magnier Dark Blue)
Ged 1 (for the Royal Colours)

plus 1/2 point each to Ged and Wildman for providing valuable corrections to the questionmaster inputWink

Are there anymore?.  That is all I have.
