Caulfield Racecourse is unique in the world of sport – it’s a public park. The day photographer Julian Kingma visited the track for this week’s cover shoot with the face of 2019 Caulfield Cup Carnival, Laura Dundovic, a few local walkers and their dogs trotted past, as frocks were fluffed and poses perfected. Larger, more powerful four-legged beasts take over the turf for the carnival this month. It is such an intimate sporting arena that punters might find a divot in their bubbly glass as thoroughbreds storm right past the swish Heath Enclosure, almost close enough to touch. Meet Laura inside. ●

FIRST PERSON
““I am Sally Capp ” … the Lord Mayor of Melbourne By the later years of school, I really wanted to be a lawyer, but I was told by my career advisor that there’d be no way I’d get into law school. Maybe it was the wake-up call that I needed, because I went home and said to Mum and Dad, “I’ve been told not to put law on my preference slip”. They said, “no way – if you want to do it, put it down, work hard and see what happens”. I started in the law, settling into commercial, but moved into a number of other roles over the years, including at ANZ, ending up as head of the chief executive’s office. I loved that opportunity, but it was followed by extended time-off because I had a malignant tumour and radiation therapy. Until that point, my health had been fantastic and the only thing holding me back was my own
willingness to have a go, and here I found myself in a situation where physically I wasn’t able to do the things I was used to doing. That really knocks you about, including your mental health. I started to focus more on those things that were most important to me. I felt a need to contribute to the community in a real and meaningful way. The opportunity to run for Lord Mayor seemed like the right opportunity at the right time. We had more than 100 volunteers over the three months of the campaign, a lot of whom had never been through that sort of experience before, including my parents. When you ask people to back you in your dream and they do, it’s humbling in the extreme.

Ph o t o
On a day-to-day basis, I am working with our City of Melbourne team on council business and engagement with constituents. I represent the interests of our constituent groups in delivering a better Melbourne. So, I spend a lot of time learning from people and organisations who are doing great things around Melbourne. I’m also the chief champion for Melbourne when it comes to the state and federal governments. I do a little bit of media and go to a hell of a lot of events to support organisations, ranging from cultural and community to business. We’re empty-nesters, so I have the luxury of being able to dedicate seven days a week to the job and I feel lucky to be able to do that. It’s full on, but I’ve never been more stimulated. ●

She admits she was shy and very clingy to her mother as a toddler, and discovered a love of acting in high school before battling chronic fatigue in her late teens, which wasn’t diagnosed until the age of 21. “I was a total tomboy as a child, I preferred the company of my brothers over hanging with the girls. I guess it was all I knew as a kid,” she says. Dundovic says growing up with

Dundovic is enjoying her time in Melbourne. She now lives here with her boyfriend Quade Cooper, a star recruit for the Melbourne Rebels rugby union team, and the pair have been dating for five years. “We met through a mutual friend and we’ve been together ever since,” Dundovic says. “Quade loves to travel as much as I

Even after the course was over, Serhat would have us over for movie nights, taught us about documentaries and watching people and discovering all sorts of characters and roles we could evolve into. “Serhat taught me that when you love what you do, you want to help others. He took great care of his students and inspired me, to not just want to succeed in acting, but to help others in life being an important message too.” Her busy schedule also includes training for marathons – you’ll often

Racegoers will also flock to Catanach’s Jewellers Blue Sapphire Stakes Day (October 16). Dundovic first came to attention as the winner of Miss Universe Australia in 2008, that accolade pushing her into the spotlight, securing ambassador roles with David Jones and fronting fashion campaigns for label Charlie Brown.

And after experiencing chronic fatigue, I know what it takes to get exhausted easily and what I need to do to keep my health in check. I’m doing this for me, there’s really no other reason.

VILL AGE LIFE
O
ne of Boris Johnson’s first actions upon becoming Britain’s Prime Minister was to inject a pile of cash into his country’s worsening retail crisis. Whatever we may think of the PM’s Brexit policies, his curious PR antics and his unkempt hair, Johnson’s move to increase to £1 billion the British retailers’ fighting fund is to be applauded. The UK High Street Crisis has left one in 10 shops empty. Towns outside the Greater London area are struggling to retain the kind of buzzy retail energy required for a healthy community life. If ever help was needed, now is the time. I was reminded of this a couple of weeks ago when yet another “For Lease” sign went up outside one of my neighbourhood shops. It sent a chill down this shopkeeper’s spine. Another great retail idea turns to dust and an individual, a family, a partnership or shareholders are left wondering what happened to their dreams and their investment. No government – state or federal – will use the word “recession” when referring to the economy’s current downturn. In retail, we have been using the R-word for months. A perfect storm of unfavourable circumstances – the federal election in May, rising
A local call to arms Grassroots retail is suffering a death of a thousand web clicks. household expenses, a shaky stock market, house prices dropping, and landlords who refuse to review rents for fear their properties will decrease in value – has shaken our sector to its core. The “perfect storm” influences are out of our control, but there is one way we can all fight back to try to save our retail ecology – shop local. Over the 10 years since we opened our Melbourne bookstore, we have battled the influence of Amazon and Book Depository. I have watched my fellow shopkeepers – the family pharmacy, the kids’ shoe specialist, the shop that sells soaps and candles, the women’s boutique – also come under siege from online (usually international) competitors. If people stop visiting their local shopping centres, or if they use stores simply to try out their potential online

purchases then return home to click-and-buy, then businesses like mine will fold. Online shopping means fewer people visit our villages. The sense of community and connection in places like Gertrude Street, Fitzroy, or Rathdowne Street, Carlton, High Street, Ashburton or Church Street, Brighton, will disappear. It’s time shoppers and retailers together embrace the principles of the Shop Local movement that has swept the US in the past decade, and its Save Our High Street UK equivalent. We need to be reminded of the many joys that accompany a visit to your local trader. It is good for us, good for our children, and good for our older folk to feel a part of the street shopping experience. I look at my own Hawksburn Village and think

“Less clicking and more strolling is the key. Ditch shopping alone
about the bespoke shops I love to visit. Beautiful environments, cleverly-curated ranges, the service and advice offered by friendly staff, the discussions we share, and the relationships we form. And each day I watch customers come into our bookstore and browse the stock, chat with us, chat with one another, and enjoy the space. Can shopping from home provide that same personal connection? Shops like ours are safe, inclusive environments. We give back to our community. We host events. We donate to local schools and kindergartens. We employ local people. We pay local taxes. Shopping local starts with all of us. Less clicking and more strolling is the key. Ditch shopping alone and opt instead to do it with others – and among others. To quote the British PM, “Our high streets are right at the heart of our communities’’.

There is a sort of luxury in having an inner-city location that is close enough to all the action to be convenient, but quiet and serene enough to ensure a good night’s sleep after a big night out. That’s one “luxury” box ticked. The other is the house. Built over three levels, it is contemporary champagne with stunning decor, high-end finishes and fine materials. Ground floor is the main level and it’s living, dining and kitchen from the entry to the sliding doors that open the rear wall to the outdoors. The north-west-facing al fresco area and deck has a vertical hydroponic garden across the width of the rear. The stylish look would be easy to move into. Polished concrete floors, crisp white walls, a timber staircase and timber accents that echo features on the exterior are a timeless decor combination that work particularly well with the natural light flooding in. The white kitchen is sleek and uncluttered with European appliances, mirror splashback, granite benchtops and a clever dining table that is part of the island bench. Downstairs is another living room, also with polished concrete floors, and it opens to a side courtyard, pond and a vertical garden with automatic irrigation. On this level, there is also a bedroom, study area and a bathroom, and the garage uses a two-car stacker system. Three bedrooms on the first floor share an indulgent bathroom with a soaker tub, twin basins and an oversize shower. The main bedroom has direct access to the bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe and doors to a long sunset-
