Stylish beauties runaway winners at Ladies Day

WINNING at the Galway Races demands fine attention to detail and a bit of luck, especially when the course is filled with potential champions.

Dedicated fashion followers outdid the horses at Ballybrit yesterday when thousands of beauties donned their best gear for Ladies’ Day. Lovely Nicola O’Reilly was thinking about winning the coveted Best-Dressed Person award for the second year on the trot.

“I won it last year but I don’t think that I’ve any chance this time. I’m just going to enjoy the day,” said Nicola, who was wearing a short Gabbana dress.
