  • 1900'S Melbourne
    Melbourne Cup History The first ever running of the Melbourne Cup was on a Thursday in 1861 and assembled a field of seventeen who raced for just 710 gold sovereigns (£710) cash and a gold watch in front of a crowd of around 4000 people. The Etienne De Mestre trained Archer was the first winner of what would go on to become Australia's most famous race and was ridden by John Cutts and ran a time of 3.52.00. History has it that Archer travelled by the steamboat 'City of Melbourne' along with his trainer to take his place in the Melbourne Cup. To prove it wasn't a fluke, Archer won the race the following year in front of 7000 people to win 810 gold sovereigns (£810) cash and a gold watch, to become the first dual winner of the Melbourne Cup. Melbourne Cup very early history – 1800’s In 1875 the Melbourne Cup moved to a Tuesday and the following year three-year-old filly Briseis created a slice of history when she won the Victoria Derby, Melbourne Cup and VRC Oaks over a period of six days. Melbourne Cup Day was declared a public holiday in Victoria in 1877 and just three years later a crowd of more than 100,000 attended Flemington for the first time on Cup day to witness the unbeaten Grand Flaneur take out the race that stops a nation. In 1890 a huge field of 39 horses assembled for the Melbourne Cup and grand galloper Carbine won the race in a then record time of 3.28.25, carrying 65.5 kilograms which was a record weight for the Melbourne Cup.

  • Speech Notes Michael Duffy – Chairman, Arb Ifha Conference Monday 8 October 2012, Paris ______
    SPEECH NOTES MICHAEL DUFFY – CHAIRMAN, ARB IFHA CONFERENCE MONDAY 8 OCTOBER 2012, PARIS __________________________________________________ Thank you for the opportunity of presenting today. In keeping with the global theme of this Conference, it is fitting that there is a contribution from probably the most far flung racing nation of the world. Whilst Australia may be geographically a very long way from the northern hemisphere, it has not prevented us from establishing a very significant racing industry. Nor has it discouraged what has become an extremely healthy and exciting exchange of international competition, with the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival annually attracting a field of high quality entries from across the globe. 2 Conversely, Australian racehorses such as our unbeaten champion mare Black Caviar, are regularly taking on the best in the world. The progressive internationalisation of Australian racing has been one of two key strategies we have employed to adapt to the challenges and pressures that changing environments present. The other key strategy in the ‘grand plan’ for Australian racing over the past decade has been to protect and grow our revenue. The success of Australian racing is largely based on delivering high levels of prizemoney to our racehorse owners and other industry participants and this requires strong and sustainable sources of income. I will return to both of these strategies later. 3 But firstly, I would like to give you a brief overview of the size and breadth of the Australian racing industry and
