Day 2: Listowel Harvest Racing Festival
Forever in Blue Jeans
One of fashion’s most iconic and versatile pieces of clothing – denim – was celebrated in style at Listowel Races this afternoon (Monday 18th September) with the return of the ‘Forever in Blue Jeans’ competition! It was generously sponsored again by O’Connor’s Hardware & Farm Supplies and judged this year by top model and actor, Timmy Dowd. The overall winner in the male category was Paul Scanlon and the overall winner in the female category was Shauna Russell. Each received a cheque for €200. This was the second of 6 fashion competitions over the week, and tomorrow Tuesday is an opportunity for young racers under 25 to dress to impress for a €500 cash prize fund!
