A NIGHT OUT AT THE RACES<br />
WITH THE LUXURY NETWORK<br />
SINGAPORE<br />
On August 16, 2019, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Luxury</strong><br />
<strong>Network</strong> and the Diplomatic<br />
Council hosted a oneof-a-kind<br />
event for 70 of its guests<br />
– Red and White Affair by the Diplomatic<br />
Council – in celebration of<br />
Singapore’s 54th National Day at<br />
the Singapore Turf Club.<br />
Founded in 1842, Singapore Turf<br />
Club (STC) at Kranji is Singapore’s<br />
only racecourse and holds both day<br />
and night live horse races. Invited<br />
guests were treated to a specially<br />
curated all silver-white theme that<br />
exuded class and luxe. <strong>The</strong> closeddoor<br />
event took place in the VIP<br />
Suite on level 4 of the Grandstand,<br />
which offered a bird’s eye view of<br />
the racetrack, and provided a private<br />
ambience for them to network<br />
and mingle.<br />
Guests were also treated to a rare<br />
experience – up close and personal<br />
with the race horses at the horse<br />
parade ring, followed by exciting<br />
trackside action as the horses raced<br />
towards the finishing line.<br />
<strong>The</strong> event ended on a high note<br />
with Best Dressed Male and Female<br />
awarded to Dr Bernard Cheong and<br />
Gerti Iwatake. Nominees for best<br />
dress Male and Female included<br />
Bentley Cheng & Mark Hashemi and<br />
Joanne Sim & Serene Tan.<br />
A night out at the races against a<br />
scenic backdrop at the Singapore<br />
Turf Club definitely did not disappoint.<br />
