Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 14, 2022 Journalists Posted October 14, 2022 The Fashionable Fillies Luncheon, a long-time fixture at Saratoga and added at Santa Anita this year, will be held in Lexington as part of the Breeders' Cup Festival Week. The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation will host the event at Jeff Ruby's on Nov. 2 from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., with TOPSINLEX as media partner. The event will honor Middlebrook Farm's Helen Alexander and Keeneland's Shannon Arvin, both The Jockey Club members and Safety Net trustees. The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation is a charitable trust which provides, on a confidential basis, financial relief and assistance to needy members of the Thoroughbred industry and their families. The luncheon will offer cocktails and Jackson Family wines, food stations and passed hors d'oeuvres with Kentucky favorites, live music by Throwdown Thursday, and shopping from local vendors such as Boulevard Home, AJ's Clothing, and Breeders' Cup Milliner Christine A. Moore. “The Fashionable Fillies Luncheon has been one of the Safety Net's most successful fundraisers in Saratoga and California,” said Shannon Kelly, executive director for the foundation. “We are very excited to bring this luncheon to Lexington to help support the backstretch community in Kentucky.” All proceeds from the event will be earmarked by the foundation to benefit the backstretch community in Kentucky, and local chaplains' and horsemen's organizations will help ensure the funds are distributed to those most in need.
