It was a spectacular Ladies\u2019 Day that the Stony Creek Racing Club put on at its race track last Wednesday, with warm and sunny conditions making for a relaxed, fun-filled afternoon.
Thirty five year Stony Creek trainer Paul Boag was at the track, with seven year old mare Zai Bu Zai placing 5th in race four\u2019s Better Rural Health Services F&M BM58 Handicap, jockeyed by Swan Hill racer Chelsea Macfarlane.
The day itself saw an official turnout of 1459 guests passing through the gates with an additional 312 children. Activities abounded to support the trotting, with a bevy of 60 attending the ladies\u2019 marquee.
Children were well catered for with the return of Chris Humfrey\u2019s Wild Action Zoo and an assortment of baby crocodiles, kangaroos and charming snakes. Kelly Sports, part of the country racing summer campaign, provided sporting activities to entertain the children.
Foster guitarist Fiona Curram entertained crowds with live entertainment. Race-goers were also treated to a quality selection food offerings.
\u201cStony Creek provides a fantastic social setting for race-goers and families alike. For $30 your family tickets are covered and as an added bonus the children received free back pack show bags at our Ladies\u2019 Day,\u201d CEO of the Stony Creek Racing Club Sarah Wolf said.
\u201cCrowds were sprightly and the day ran smoothly, although one horse decided to go for a solo lap after one race.
\u201cWe had great food at the track. I personally head-hunted South Melbourne Market\u2019s Street Eats that make some of the most divine crepes I\u2019ve ever tasted.
\u201cDine with Me dished up paella from Mirboo North\u2019s Escargot, Theo\u2019s Chino to Go once again had the best coffee and Elsie\u2019s Fine Food cartered as well, both of which have been regulars for 10 years.
Ms Wolf urges future race-goers to book in early for the Ladbrokes\u2019 Cup, to be held on March 10.<\/p>\n
