09/03/2010 by Sarah Watt
On a busy Tuesday night, I slipped into the warm and inviting Kingsleys Steak & Crabhouse.

For the first race on the Canberra Autumn racing calendar, the Fashion's on the Field stage didn't see much of this season's trends, with only sprinklings of metallics, nudes and strong shoulders making a show. Instead, racegoers opted for traditional black and white in classic silhouettes, with leather gloves aplenty.

They're too polite to take the last hors d'oeuvre, and they walk on the outside of a footpath to protect their lady-friends from a vehicular drenching on a rainy day.
