The 150th L'Ormarins Queen's Plate
The L'Ormarins Queen's Plate celebrated its 150th running with another historic display by South Africa's finest thoroughbreds against a royal backdrop at Kenilworth racecourse on Saturday, 8 January 2011.
From an appearance by the legendary Horse Chestnut, a magnificent win by Mother Russia to claim victory over Pocket Power in the L'Ormarins Queen's Plate race, and the blend of fine wine, fashion and entertainment, this was indeed one of the most memorable editions of this prestigious event.
The record crowd of 6 000 racegoers, including South Africa's A-list celebrities such as Nicola Breytenbach, Francesca Cumani, Jen Su, Natalie Becker, Tammy-Anne Fortuin, Jo-Ann Strauss, Liezel van der Westhuizen, Graeme Smith and Jacques Kallis, did indeed revel amidst the theme of "Timeless Elegance".
Louise Carver, Zebra and Giraffe, Locnville, Gazelle and Crazy White Boy thrilled racegoers with live performances at the Style Lounge Village, and VIP guests enjoyed a day of luxury and sophistication in the Stud Club.
In the spirit of celebrating excellence in timeless endeavours, there was a display of one of the largest vintage car collections in the world. The collection, courtesy of the Franschhoek Motor Museum, carried through the blue and white theme of the day.
