Fine dresses, fancy suits, and the classic “smart casual” jeans and business shirts were on show at the Gympie racetrack as punters took their chances on the horses and celebrated the afternoon away.

The equivalent of a fine Summer’s day was on offer as hundreds of Gympie punters packed out the showgrounds and racetrack to party at the region’s first race day for Winter.

Fine dresses, fancy suits, and the always popular “smart casual” jeanswear and business shirts were the rage as crowds took in all the fun of the TSR Refrigeration and Airconditioning Race Day on Saturday … even if some walked away with lighter wallets.

Check out the highlights from the afternoon below.
