In preparation for the English Grand National on Saturday, Aintree annually hosts Ladies Day. Now, part of the Virginia Gold Cup tradition is lovely women in beautiful spring dresses and hats, so annually we feel compelled to compare the two events.
As usual, the Gold Cup wins again.
Granted the folks at Aintree are burdened with a few handicaps. First off, it’s England – it is, what it is. Secondly, the weather isn’t as pleasant as it usually is on the first Saturday in May at Great Meadow in The Plains, VA and finally, well…let’s just say fashion is viewed differently.
Here’s some photos from today’s event.
