Irish ladies turn heads in fashion stakes

WHILE it may have been a nightmare for the Irish at Cheltenham yesterday, at least the ladies got to turn out in style.

While the competition was fierce out on the track, it was especially fierce outside the railings as hundreds of women vied for the title of Best Dressed Lady.

Ladies Day at Cheltenham is known for offering up a fashionable array of flamboyant outfits which manage to turn heads away from the horses.
