It wasn’t just the race that stopped the nation, it was also a work free day for Canberrans and an excuse to kick up your heels with Canberra’s finest at Thoroughbred Park!
The weather was blissful, the champagne was flowing and the bets were being placed as eager punters filled Thoroughbred Park to full capacity.
Myer Fashions on the Field was a highlight this year, with a sea of oversized and elaborate fascinators bopping above eye level, with shades of tangerine and canary yellow a massive hit.
Did you luck out this year? Win a few dollars? Or did you frock/suit up and have a fabulous time? OutInCanberra were in the thick of it and caught all the action and excitment of Melbourne’s Day, in Canberra.
