If you live in Melbourne in a few days, you`ll find that almost everyone is going to the same place!
Who really has so much magic to attract people in almost all of Melbourne and even in other Australian cities?
The man with the `superpower` is the 157th-year-old Melbourne Cup! Which is what we often call "Racing Day."
Melbourne Cup is Australia`s leading annual Pure Horse Competition, held on the first Tuesday of November at the Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne.
The charming and historic Flemington (Flemington) is Australia`s horse-racing capital. At the carnival, you can enjoy the best courtesies in Melbourne and all of Australia-sports, food, wine, fashion parties, business hospitality.
The first Melbourne Cup was held in 1861, when there were 17 horse races, with a prize of 170 pounds and a gold watch. It is said that the 1861 champion horse "Archer" came all the way from Nowra, New South Wales, 800km away!

The Melbourne Cup is also nicknamed "the race that stops a nation", which means that when the Melbourne Cup is held, everyone will drop their hands and come to watch the game, and the importance is evident.

03 you have to know about the Melbourne Cup.
1. "Rose Magic" at Flemington Racecourse
People often applaud the fact that Flemington was still green on the last day of preparation in front of, Melbourne Cup at the Flemington Racecourse, while (AAMI Victoria DerbyDay), Victoria, was on the way to AAMI.
A total of more than 16, 000, more than 200 kinds of roses seem to be some kind of call, overnight, competing to bloom.
Gardener Terry Freeman, is the magic wizard. He uses both hands, hard pruning, so that rose seedlings can absorb the most nutrients
Rose seedlings lay dormant in wet and long winters, saving energy. Every year in 9.11 and January, the sorcerer has to apply extra fertilizer to ensure it is well nourished.
At the beginning of the Melbourne Cup day, all the flowers followed Freeman`s baton, from the entrance to the observation of the ping to the famous Rose Arbour; from different places of origin, different aroma, colorful roses, with no mercy to seize the eyes of passers-by.
The audience couldn`t help taking pictures with these delicate flowers.
The royal family is also associated with these flowers: the Victorian jockey club president went to the UK to watch the Royal Ascot horse race. After returning home, he ventured to dig up a rose and sent it back to England, home of horse racing, as a memorial. Because of horse racing and roses, the hearts of the two countries are closely linked.
2. "Cold knowledge" about horse racing
Archaeological evidence shows that the rudimentary form of the organized racehorse came from the ancient Roman racehorse (Chariot Race).
During World War I and World War II, most sporting events were halted due to the oppression of the war situation; the Melbourne Cup has been operating every year since 1861, probably having something to do with Australia`s geographical location far from the main battlefield.
When Melbourne Cup champion Phar Lap died in 1930, his heart weighed 6.2kg!
The youngest Melbourne Cup champion jockey was Peter St Albans, in 1876, 12 years old, 11 months and 23 days.
Australia has more than 479 races across the country, and (Flemington Racecourse), the Melbourne Cup home, is one of the best.
3. Lucky guy from past Melbourne Cup
In 2016, Perth was lucky to win A $10 and A $ two hundred and forty one thousand seven hundred and thirty nine.
The lucky man is reported to have bought 10 Australian dollar tickets online through Sportsbet, where he guessed that the result would be Almandin first, Heartbreak City second, with Hartnell and Qewy third and fourth, respectively.
I didn`t expect the result to be as he had expected, and he got a $ two hundred and forty one thousand seven hundred and thirty nine prize for it!
Melbourne`s lucky man wins A $1 million in 2017
The lucky man is Dominic. He was lying on the sofa ready to place a few more bets when he got the winning call. And the young man was home alone at the start of the prize, and he was going to call a few friends to watch the game. And Donnick had no idea that Rekindling would win.
You haven`t been moved to see rich bonuses, fun events, beautiful racecourse, mouthwatering food.
Editor`s concluding remarks:
Melbourne Cup is known all over the world for its unique social and cultural traditions. It is no exaggeration to say that it was a horse racing event that brought Australia to a standstill and madness. Since landing in Melbourne in 1861, it has been popular with the local people.
For Chinese in Australia, this is no doubt a good opportunity to integrate into Australian society and feel the local culture. As immigrants, no matter how long they live in Australia, if they do not really participate in Australian authentic life, feel in various recreational activities or sports events, and take the initiative to accept and integrate cultural differences. Will never be integrated into the local community of the mainstream circle.
So, at the turn of the warm spring and summer season, the ladies put on beautiful hats and men are ready to shout and hormones to bet on their favorite horses, taking advantage of the hugely high-profile horse-racing day of the year. Happy to come to the Flemington racetrack, with a crowd from all over the world, in this "Melbourne" sports event, with the zeal of the crowd to blend into one, share this carnival feast!
