Here are FIVE things to not miss at Rosehill Gardens on Chandon Ladies Day.

1. Pamper Lounge 

Head over to the pamper lounge to ensure you look your best all day long! With hair and make up artists on hand for quick touch ups and fashion illustrators ready to sketch your raceday look!

2. Smokehouse 

Serving up traditional American styled smoked meats, using quality meats sourced from local producers and using traditional “Low and slow” cooking methods to bring out the best flavour will have most racegoers following that delicious smell to the best smoked meat rolls in town. Plus, sample celebrity chef Hayden Quinn’s limited edition pulled pork burger at The Smokehouse. See for more Food and Drink options.

It is also the last chance for two-year-olds to qualify for the TAB Golden Slipper when they contest the Group 3 Cincotta Chemist Magic Night Stakes and Group 3 TAB Pago Pago Stakes. Full fields.
