Six men in drag — including pearls, wigs and feather boas — shed their heels for the 50m Pink Stiletto Queen race in front of several thousand fans in the grandstand.
The race day, held in conjunction with the Australian Jockey Club, had the support of the country’s leading horse trainer, Gai Waterhouse. She said before the event: “I’m delighted to be ‘coming out’ at the Pink Stiletto race day and joining the Bobby Goldsmith Foundation in what will be the world’s first gay race day.”
Organisers said that they had raised more than A$30,000 (£17,500) for the foundation, which provides practical, emotional and financial support for people living with HIV/Aids.
