Beauty therapy from Lancôme, spa treatments from Emirates Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa and a German-inspired feast had the world’s glitterati thoroughly entertained.

Set Square landed the 2500m Group One Crown Oaks with jockey Hugh Bowman galloping to the finish. Though, one wouldn’t be too harshly scorned for missing the race action with all the trackside action taking place under the Emirates German-themed marquee,

While watching the race from the best seat at Flemington, celebrities from the world of TV, sport and music were taken on a culinary journey of Germany and devoured delicious dishes including honey roasted venison, schnitzel and kartoffelsalat, Hamburg panfish and an array of fine German desserts.

German Slap Dancers also entertained guests throughout the day with two ‘Schuhplattlers’, while the ladies relaxed with hand and foot massages on offer in the Timeless Spa, as well as hair styling from Joey Scandizzo and make-up touch ups at the exclusive Lancôme lip and eye bar.
