The club has tagged the meeting “Picnic With The Ponies” and has put together some fantastic dining and picnic packages. For just $40 you can obtain a picnic cooler bag full of snacks, a picnic rug and two admission tickets. Other attractions will be live music with Mr and Mrs Jones and a variety of activities for the children. The Jones duet are solid stayers and will play on well after the last race. Local trainers will be to the fore with their runners and the best may well be HairiniTycoon returning from the picnics. Major attraction on the day will undoubtedly be the big screen as it is Golden Slipper day. So for those of you who are into throwing millions of dollars at a race for babies barely back from the breakers, this is your big day. However, the mighty mare Winx will be attempting her 24th consecutive win in the George Ryder Stakes at Rosehill that same day. Make sure you are in the crowd in front of the big screen cheering home Australia’s greatest racehorse. Celebratewith adayoutthat's GotItAll!
