AAMI Victoria Derby Day, Emirates Melbourne Cup and Crown Oaks Day

AAMI VICTORIA DERBY DAY - Saturday 29th October, 2011 AAMI Victoria Derby Day is considered by most racing purists to be the best single day of thoroughbred racing in Australia, if not the world. The $1.5 million AAMI Victoria Derby, the classic Group 1 staying test for three-year olds over 2500m, is the showcase event on the incredible all-Group racecard. Style, class and elegance underpin the fashions on AAMI Victoria Derby Day. This is the day for classic sophistication, setting the pace for the Melbourne Cup Carnival. EMIRATES MELBOURNE CUP DAY - Tuesday 1st November, 2011 The $6.175 million Emirates Melbourne Cup is a truly spectacular event and the focal point of the Melbourne Cup Carnival.  While most of Australia stops to watch or listen to the race, there’s nothing like being there amongst the 100,000 plus crowd to experience this truly unique event. The excitement slowly builds to its 3pm fever pitch when everything at the track comes to a stop for 200 heart-pounding seconds. Each year, a new chapter is written, a new legend is made and a new dream comes true as the winning connections take Australia’s most famous sporting trophy. CROWN OAKS DAY - Thursday 3rd November, 2011 While the racing highlight is the Group 1 Crown Oaks for three-year-old fillies, Crown Oaks Day – The Ultimate Style Day - is the time when women of all ages come together and celebrate feminine elegance and the heritage of Ladies Day at Flemington. Whether it is just for fun, or for the lure of fame and prizes in Myer Fashions on the Field, women take the opportunity to express their own signature style as Flemington hosts one of the world’s greatest outdoor fashion events.
