The Geelong Racing Club is delighted to welcome back Lucy and Ruby Brownless as ambassadors of the 2017 bet365 Geelong Cup.<\/p>\n
In 2016, Lucy and Ruby generated huge interest in their debut as event ambassadors.<\/p>\n
This year, the popular models, now 21 and 19 respectively, along with media identities will return home to lead the OUR CUP OUR TOWN campaign, and again judge Westfield Geelong Fashions on the Field.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year we\u2019re excited about seeing Geelong come together for a big day of racing and fashion,\u201d Lucy said. \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to seeing some exciting, confident style choices.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Geelong Cup is always such a great opportunity to have some fun with spring fashion.\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to championing spring racing fashion at the event, the pair intend to visit each marquee, mingle with punters and generally encourage event attendees to enjoy a great day.<\/p>\n
Geelong Racing Club chief executive Daniel Salter said the club was looking forward to another big cup day.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year, we really want to acknowledge the people who contribute to the bet365 Geelong Cup as well as attend it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s Geelong\u2019s event, and it really is down to the people of Geelong who make it happen.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom a racing perspective, we\u2019re looking forward to a top-class field of local and international runners. Let\u2019s hope we see a Geelong Cup\/Melbourne Cup double again this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Qewy, an eight-year-old bay gelding from Ireland, will be back to defend his title at the Geelong Cup this year.<\/p>\n
New to this year\u2019s event is Little Geelong, an entertainment precinct offering pop up versions of the city\u2019s finest local food and beverage offerings, live music, big screens and Westfield Geelong Fashions on the Field.<\/p>\n
