__NOTOC__ The VRC Stakes day (also known as the Emirates Stakes day), is the final day of the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival at Flemington Racecourse. Stakes Day is held on the Saturday directly following Melbourne Cup Day (the first Tuesday in November). The 'Stakes' were first run in 1881. Stakes Day is also known as Family Day of the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, with extra events aimed at children and families scheduled throughout the day. A popular event introduced from 2004 is the ''Emirates Kids' Fashions on the Field'', giving youngsters the opportunities to impress at the track alongside their adult counterparts. Stakes Day is one of the fastest growing events on the Australian Racing Calendar, and is popular with crowds because of its relaxed and casual atmosphere. Emirates Stakes Day features a nine race card, of which five are group races. The feature race of the day is the Group 1 Emirates Stakes, a quality handicap run over 1600 metres. The 1200m Patinack Farm Classic (won by Black Caviar in 2010 and 2011) is also held on this day. ==Attendance History== *2006 - 78,151 *2005 - 61,382 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「VRC Stakes day」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
