Product Information

This take on the Russian version of Cinderella by creating a magical world full of all beautiful things and monsters and spells and ofc fairy godmothers 🧚🏻‍♀️ was absolutely adorable and stunning!

Naisme Flett, who has appeared in all three of Plater's Orkney plays, remembers taking shelter in the Golden Slipper as a girl. "Willie used to let schoolchildren sit in his front room while waiting for the school bus," she says. "He used to put out sweets and lemonade. But my mother warned me on no account to touch the pies." Shinzo strides away for Golden Slipper glory with Ryan Moore in the saddle Picture: Jeremy Ng/Getty Images The Golden Slipper Stakes has been run since 1957, originally as a Principal race over a distance of 6 furlongs.

Yet the profit motive has never been particularly prevalent on Orkney. As Maxwell Davies says: "When we started the St Magnus Festival 30 years ago, Benjamin Britten wrote to warn me that you can't expect much in return from a rural arts festival other than a lot of grief." But Golden Slippers are so hard to win. This is the race we wanted to win more than any other this year.The synopsis for this book immediately intrigued me. A Cinderella retelling, based on the Russian Cinderella tale? Totally my kind of premise! Shinzo has taken out the 2023 Golden Slipper, beating home the heavily-favoured Cylinder in a thrilling 1200m race at Rosehill Gardens. Earlier in the day, superstar Anamoe won his ninth career Group 1 in a gutsy effort in the George Ryder Stakes, while international raider Dubai Honour triumped in the G1 Ranvet Stakes. TIME

From 2009 to 2014 the race was held on the first Saturday in April. In 2008 it was held in mid-April - four weeks after Easter in March. Prior to 2008, the race was held on the Saturday before Good Friday in conjunction with a series of races known as the Golden Slipper Carnival. The Australian Turf Club asks guests to adhere to their dress code which is in place to maintain the sense of occasion that makes a raceday so special. This is a story that blends both the fairy tales of Cinderella and Baba Yaga, using the Russian versions. There is so much time spent on the romance that I wondered when Baba Yaga would show up. She does late in the story, and it is a doozy of a confrontation. I really really loved how both the FMC (Miraslava) and MMC (Luca) were portrayed - both are such kind, gentle souls. They literally deserve each other. I also love how FMC has a founded family with her best friend and her family.If there is a time out or other intermittent failure of your connection to the NEDS Betting Platform between the time you submit a Fluc-Up Request until when you receive confirmation that the Fluc-Up Request has been accepted or rejected (‘Pending Request’), you may not be able to use the Fluc-Up Tool on another Bet until such confirmation of the Pending Request is displayed in your Bet Statement.
