Zara Phillips showed the Aussies how it's done when she stepped out in a daring millinery creation at the Melbourne Cup yesterday.

Wonderful pictures, thanks a lot, Iceflower! In the first pic the horse looks just like an Arabian Horse, but a bit taller than they usually are. Zara looks lovely.

That is a gorgeous looking horse and this is funny, but the halter seems to be fashion coordinated. HA!

The face is the wrong shape for an Arab, IMO. Mine all have a dished face and small nuzzle. Zara does look stunning.

After the Melbourne Cup Zara went clubbing, mingled with celebs and is now supposedly in the Hunter Valley. Seems odd there were no photos.

The resort she's staying at is not in the Hunter Valley (the article is incorrect on that point) and as it's owned by Emirates, who brought her to Australia and is one of her sponsors, she won't be paying $5,500 a night.

Warren it's very disappointing that the journalist got the part of Australia that Zara went to wrong. I googled the Wolgan resort and it's in the Wolgan Valley somewhere in the greater Blue Mountains.
