Style and glamour are synonymous with top class racing and on Friday 7th July Sandown Park Racecourse invites women of all ages to dress their best for Ladies’ Day, the first day of the Summer Festival at the racecourse.           

This year’s celebrity judge for the highly coveted ‘Style Award’ title is Lauren Pope, star of The Only Way is Essex TV show. Lauren runs her own business, Hair Rehab London; designs for her own clothing collection; and is an international DJ.

There are fantastic prizes on offer. First prize is a holiday to Barbados; Port Ferdinand Marina & Luxury Residences, Barbados is offering seven nights accommodation in a three bedroom villa for up to six people sharing. Runner-up prizes are a luxury glow&dry Styling Session with the glow&dry salon VIP Styling team and tickets to see Olly Murs live at Sandown Park later in the summer.

Lauren will be DJing the official After Party once racing has finished. Revellers will be able to enjoy the outside bars and dance the evening away.

Lauren Pope, said:

“I am delighted to be judging the 'Style Award’ at Sandown Park’s Ladies’ Day – it promises to be a great day out. A summer’s day out at the races is always so much fun and this year there are some amazing prizes for the lucky competition winner. In selecting the most stylish, I will be looking for ladies who are dressed in a sophisticated, elegant and fun outfit. I look forward to seeing all the ladies in their outfits and hope you all enjoy my DJ set and pick some winners during the day!"
