Racegoers had the advantage of amazing weather for the outing, which saw them arrive in droves for the annual event.
Increased from five to six races a week out from the big day, there was even more for the punters.
Paired with trackside entertainment suitable for the whole family, horse racing lovers from the local area were joined from people from right across the district and even interstate.
One of the most anticipated events of the day was the Fashions on the Field.
Despite the change of seasons, enough ‘summer’ lingered to allow those taking part to show off some amazing outfits that had colour and flare.
Tocumwal’s Bronni DePomeroy wowed judges and racegoers alike in her patterned jumpsuit to take out the coveted Lady of the Day.
With long, wide leg pants and long flowing sleeves, it was perfectly suited to an autumn race meet.
Other contestants opted for flowing dresses, paring outfits with amazing shoes, handbags and fascinators or headwear.
Other Fashions on the Field results were as follows:
Couple of the Day - Jane Sheahan and Adrian Butler, Hawthorn.
Young Racegoer - Harvie Swann, Berrigan.
Little Racegoer - Ivy Atkinson, Finley.
