There was plenty of action on and off the track at yesterday's Bayleys International Raceday at Tauranga Racecourse, with big prizes on offer.

The $100,000 Windsor Park Stud Japan-New Zealand International Trophy was won by All Roads, ridden by Kelly McCulloch while the Shiseido Fashions in the Field overall winner was Elizabeth Charleston.

The $30,000 Drymix Cement Bay of Plenty Cup went to Woodsman, who was ridden by Anna Jones. Punters who took a risk backing On Parole for the win in the Ultimate Motor Group 1600 would have been pleased with jockey Samantha Collett's victory, with odds of first-place offered at $20.50.

Fashions in the Field supreme winner Elizabeth Charleston won a trip for two to the Brisbane Racing Carnival on Treasury Ladies Oaks Day, Saturday June 3. The prize package includes return airfares for two to Brisbane thanks to Travelcom, two nights' accommodation, hospitality for two in the Birds of Paradise Marquee and entry into the Indooroopilly Fashions in the Field.

SunLive photographer Tracy Hardy captured all the fashion action below, including the place-getters in both After Hours Eventwear categories and Bernina Sewing Centre Open Design Award.
