Melbourne and Sydney are the heart of horse racing in Australia, the three premier events being the Caulfield Cup, the Cox Plate and, of course, the biggest one of them all, the Melbourne Cup. The last-named, known in Australia as ‘the race that stops a nation’, is held annually on the first Tuesday in November, at the Flemington Racetrack.
