    Quick reminder - the Melbourne Cup is an intersection of greed, idiocy & and industry built on brutal cruelty to animals. Avoid it.

        Racehorses love to run, just as greyhounds do, but our greed has made them commodities to be destroyed if they’re not winners. Horrible

        Wherever money involved there will be cruelty to animals. Greyhound & horse racing try & cover it up, do some research it is sickening

        Have never supported Melbourne Cup or any event supporting racing animals, cruelty and gambling a double whammy. We are in minority

        Give to a worthy charity. You can get up to 50% back and that warm glow for doing good.
