HIGH stakes and high fashion were the order of the day at Yarra Glen Racecourse on Melbourne Cup Day on 1 November. As the nation stopped to witness the nail-biting win of Almandin at Flemington, thousands of punters turned out to enjoy some good ol’ fashion country racing and fun, courtesy of Yarra Valley Racing. Mail photographer Greg Carrick attended the popular meet to snap up the action and the fashion.
