A Day At The Races

 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate at Kenilworth Race Course is one of the most exciting and exclusive events of the year. This high-stakes and high-fashion event is in its 152nd year. The dress code is always strictly blue and white.

The crowd is young, fun and ready to have a good time. People dress to impress for the best dressed contest. The event lasts from 11am to 11pm. Once the races finish there is a dance party in the central tent. With the champagne flowing the party just doesn't stop.

I had an amazing time at the races! I even did a little betting. I bet R50 on LoveStruck and won! I only won R250 but it was still a win. I recouped the money spent on drinks. Who doesn't love that...
