The Race That Stops a Nation – Melbourne Cup

There’s probably not one single sporting event anywhere in the world that captures a whole nation like this one. On the first Tuesday in November every year in Melbourne, the best horses in the world gather to run the 3200m or 2 miles to win the coveted prize – The Melbourne Cup.

It’s the richest two-mile race in the world. But it’s not just a horse race; it’s one of the greatest fashion events on the calendar. It is associated with the arrival of spring, and over 100,000 people are drawn to the carnival atmosphere of high fashion, glamour, garden parties, and the races.

Join Gary Kent at the Flemington Racecourse and learn about one of the oldest and richest handicap races in horse racing, which captures the heart of the nation. We will also discover that each of us is caught up in a race, the race of life.
