YES ON THE 1ST TUESDAY OF NOVEMBER THE MELBOURNE CUP BRINGS AUSTRALIA TO A STOP.
WITH 104,000 INDIVIDUALS CRAMMING INTO FLEMINGTON RACECOURSE TO VIEW THE DISPLAY, AND ANOTHER 7 MILLION WATCHING ALL OVER THE WORLD IT Is Among THE MOST POPULAR HORSE RACES IN THE WORLD.
The race over history has numerous stories to inform, however a brand-new and exciting chapter has been added to its history, Gai Waterhouse known as the first woman in racing, has actually finally taken out the huge race.
I was taking a trip house from Sydney simply 2 hours before the race and decided to stop at three different towns. Each town had a club and a betting location within, and to emphasize my words it brings Australia to a halt. Ladies in elegant hats and dresses, men in work garments, all carrying a champagne or beer. One guy observed and made the comment to the women, haven't seen you considering that this time in 2012. Yes every club was crowded, and they were all attempting to be part of the 90.6 million dollars bet on one race, yes the one and just Melbourne Cup. Most individuals lost their cash including my self who bet $12.00 on a boxed trifecta, but one fortunate punter put a $1.00 wager on the first four and collected a cool $118,000.00.
Our hats must go off to Australia's most well-known fitness instructor Gai Waterhouse. Gai after being the first lady to generate a trainers licence, has actually taken Australian racing to a new level. Her dad the late Tommy J. Smith was a wonderful trainer, but Gai has actually improved or amounted to many of his records. Gai not just knows how you can train horses but has a wonderful eye in understanding a horses prospective. Gai paid $1.1 million for a horse she identified in England called Fio-rente. She sold shares to 40 different owners, and they were all at the race course, to share in the celebrations, and gather the $3.6 million first prize.
Since getting her training licence over twenty years ago, she has actually completed Second three times in this great race, but 2013 has actually gave Gai her most significant achievement in racing. With the remarkable ride by jockey Damien Oliver who just returned riding I September after a betting scandal, in a race he rode in. Gai gave him an opportunity and it included more joy to this fantastic success. This was his 3rd Melbourne cup win.
As Gai clarified this is the holy grail of racing, this makes her various other 119 group one victories small in comparison to this Historic achievement.
