STAKES DAY
The Carnival's easy finale, done well.
Saturday 7 November 2026
Stakes Day closes the Carnival at a gentler pace — families, long lunches, and the season's last excuse to dress for the track. It suits Elizabeth Anne particularly well: a slow crossing, an open deck, and the week's stories retold on the water before the racing has even begun.
