The Melbourne Cup is Australia's most prestigious Thoroughbred horse race. Marketed as "the race that stops a nation".
Yesterday Harvey Norman Commercial with Caroma invited 130 customers to enjoy the day at the Coogee Bay Hotel.
A beautiful buffet lunch was put on by the girls at the Coogee Bay and the room was decorated and themed beautifully. It was just like being at Flemington.
Everyone dressed up and looked terrific. The men looked dapper in their suits and the women stunning with their fascinators. During the day we had prizes for the Best dressed female and male, Best millinery and a Lucky door prize.
