New look, fresh excitement.
First ran in 1883, the Metropolitan Mile (now simply known as the MET) is even bigger in 2017, as race morning will attest.
By 11am Saturday morning roads around Kenilworth Racetrack was already clogged with eager fasionistas, serious betters and revelers cueing to see what the new-look MET has in store.
The now Sun International-backed event is expecting 20 000 people at its inaugural race day. That includes a long list of music, stage and screen stars donning their best to reflect the theme Decades of Glamour.
Here’s what some of the glitterati they are wearing today.
