Dundalk Stadium’s Ladies Day 2009 - Sunday 12th July - will see a wealth of racy mares trying their luck to win the title ‘Marshes Best Dressed Lady,’ €5000 worth of Marshes shopping vouchers and a limited edition head piece created by Irish designer Ronnie Ryan.

Marshes Best Dressed Lady competition will be judged by Karen Koster, TV3’s fashion goddess. The competition will be complemented by a sparkling Jacob's Creek drinks reception in a specially designated marquee. 10 finalists will receive a goodie bag with a bottle of Jacob's Creek Sparkling Rosé Wine.

With over 40 great name stores, Marshes is the perfect shopping venue to race ahead and up the fashion stakes. You can go glam for the big race day with these top on-trend tips from Marshes fashion experts;

Pony Pattern
Pattern is hugh this season. Take a tip from Ms Rooney’s attire at this year’s Aintree. Graphic, floral, striped, Aztec - it all adds up to a winning look. 

Course Colours
Think bold and bright. Make the jockeys green with envy in colour combinations sure to set hearts racing.

Judge Jewellery
Ditch the jewels this Ladies Day and go for overstated costume jewellery piling on heaps of gold and tribal inspired DIYesque bibs.

Punters Platform
Canter in the latest must have foot fetish rousing platforms.

All out Alice Band 
Embellished Alice Bands are not just a one trick pony.

Weather ‘Forecast’
The 80s are back on form and are making a triumphant return to the runway. A shoulder-padded scrunched sleeve beauty is sure to keep you covered up should the odds be on rain.
