The Melbourne Cup was born following the quest of the Victoria Turf Club to put on a "good handicap" which would rival its counterpart, the Victoria Jockey Club. While 1860s racing administrators were enthusiastic and visionary in many ways, not in their wildest dreams would they have thought the Cup would become what we know it today.
There’s nothing quite like a day at the races at Royal Randwick Racecourse. Enjoy the spirit of Racing with Sportsworld, see below for variety of hospitality opportunities available at Royal Randwick for Melbourne Cup day.
