Foxes, hounds and a horse race

Imagine being able to watch the race that stops a nation rubbing shoulders with the well heeled set, without your heels rubbing.  

Hold on to your fascinators Sydneysiders, Foxes and Hounds has the odds stacked in its favour as the ultimate Melbourne Cup experience, according to creative director Alex Zabotto Bentley.
“Foxes and Hounds is for those who love the thrill of the hunt as much as the race itself,” he said. 

Forget plastic crockery, fake flowers and fighting the Flemington crowds, giddy up to Surry Hills hotspot, Porteno (the newest edition to the savvy Bodega stable).

Be greeted by Argentinean cocktails then settle in to watch the race in 3D while feasting on a three-course lunch from the Latino grill, quaffing French Champagne and then refuelling with Porteno’s signature dark spirit cocktails for the cocktail after party.

Alex Perry and Jayson Brunsdon with show their latest collections before a high-octane Fashion On The Field event where your fashion finery won’t go unnoticed by fashion authorities including Donny Galella.

Take a sweepstake amongst your posse to decide on either the all-inclusive full service lunch for $225 or $175 for the late afternoon cocktail soiree.
