Throughout Australia, we like our horse racing and we thought we’d unfold Australia’s greatest or perhaps most renowned carnival, The Melbourne Spring Carnival. Rest back and live it up as we lead you through the biggest race in Australia, showcasing the stars of Aussie Turf & of course the breeders and riders in the lead of this fantastic industry. This is Victoria’s finest thing for punters to acquire their money’s worth. Aussie punters will be racing to the local TAB and online sports betting websites to place bets.

Once we finally get over Derby Day and by god it’s a massive race, we anticipate ourselves for the day that stops the nation, The Melbourne Cup. Ever since the commencement of the race, the stories of Archer being paraded down from Sydney to challenge the Trophy and who won the 1st two runnings of it to boot, Australians have been engrossed. Victorians even have a bank holiday to party!

The love affair which was Makybe Diva and the Aussie public was something to be admired. She was why punters went to the track. To win 3 Melbourne Cups in succession is something which we possibly won’t ever see again. What about the daze Aussies got when Dermot Weld came out and took the Cup home to Ireland back in ‘93 with Vintage Crop. Or possibly when he did it again back in ‘02 with Media Puzzle. What about Sheila Laxon triumphant with Ethereal, or maybe the popular Might & Power and Doriemus photo finish. The rain poured down back in ‘74 & Van Der Hum took it home.

And then there was Bart. JB Cummings. The Cups King. The man who has trained the Melbourne Cup victor a lazy 11 times. With horses such as Light Fingers, Galilee, Think Big (twice), Hyperno, Let’s Elope and Saintly winning for him in the past. In 2008 punters & bookies alike were praying Viewed could do it for the Cup Kings and accomplish that dull eleven a decent dozen over the covering and who would have though the soon to be 80 year old would truly do it. Well completed Bart, you are really the king of the Turf.

We will additionally not forget the hot water Luca Cumani and 2nd place winner Bauer landed in after it was evident the horse obtained shockwave therapeutics, not legal within 7 days of the Melbourne Cup. The uproar was remarkable, particularly after it was discovered an RVL delegated vet administered the treatment.
