6. Did You Know... |
With
November being the month of the running of
the Melbourne Cup, this month’s theme
is the Melbourne Cup. Did you know:
- In 1861, the first Melbourne Cup attracted 4000
people, but within 20 years there were 100,000
people flocking to see the race.
- In 1972 the race was altered to the metric distance
of 3200m, 18.7m (or 61.5ft) short of two miles.
- Kingston Rule holds the metric race record at
3:16.30.
- In
1985 prize money for the cup was increased to AU$1
million. The owners of What A Nuisance
received AU$650,000 and a AU$23,000 cup.
Today the race is worth AU$2.7 million to the owners,
along
with a trophy valued at AU$80,500
- The modern Cup field consists of 24 starters,
and the most successful barrier to start from
is Barrier 11, with six winners. Barrier 18 is
the only one to have never produced a winner
