Fun, Fashion & Frivolity before the Presentation
There was a little something for everyone leading up to the main race.
A bikini parade kept most of the crowd entertained. (sorry guys had to crop the photos due to this being a family website, best you should attend the meeting next year and check it out for yourselves)
Linda Jones and Bernadette Cooper present the Fashion Stakes winners.
While the other photos show inaugural Ladies Hall Of Fame inductees Linda Jones and Pam O'Neil welcoming Bernadette Cooper to the elite club.
The final photo is of the invited riders for the 2011 Iris Nielsen Memorial Cup
