Part of the Daily Mail, The Mail on Sunday & Metro Media Group. By Nic White For Daily Mail Australia. Bella Rosa has mustered an impressive performance on debut to win the Bumble Stakes. Fifty Stars remained race favourite all week, but he was a big drifter in betting as punters rallied around a few of his wet-track specialist opponents.

In towns and cities across Australia, restaurants are filled with social and family groups taking the opportunity to celebrate the culture of our nation and a mid-week break from normal activities. There are only four Australian horses, plus one from New Zealand, in the cup this year out of a field of 24. Winning jockey Kerrin McEvoy already knew how he would spend his hundreds of thousands in prize money after making a series of promises to his family. The occasion for the holiday is Australia's major thoroughbred horse race: the Melbourne Cup. Oh No, Yucatan, just in front of Avilius. The press thought they could stay dry inside the media room at Flemington. 'It’s obviously very hard going out there. We are no longer accepting comments on this article.

Elsewhere, model and The Block 2017 winner Elyse Knowles, 26, showed off her bronze smokey eye look with bold lashings of mascara, nude lips and feathered out brows. [3], The race was won by Cross Counter, ridden by Kerrin McEvoy and trained by Charlie Appleby. McEvoy was able to get the horse to switch off despite almost being hampered for a run by The Cliffsofmoher early, and he began to steadily work the horse off the fence and towards the pace as the field rounded for home.

The last race before the Cup itself, the Jim Beam Black Stakes, starts at 1.50pm and will be much smaller than expected. 'We've got crews at the scene pumping water from the tracks but at this stage we are bringing all trains to to Platform 2 at Flemington Racecourse,' Metro trains said. Passengers arriving on a flight from Singapore along with those on a Qantas service from Japan had to be diverted to Sydney on Tuesday after heavy rain and cloud forced a runway closure, Melbourne Airport spokesman Grant Smith said.
