This week’s Melbourne Cup Carnival commenced in spectacular fashion on Saturday with the running of the Penfolds Victoria Derby, and continues with tomorrow’s world famous Lexus Melbourne Cup.
Onto Thursday and the fantastic Kennedy Oaks, and concludes this Saturday with the TAB Champions Stakes, marking 4 of the most prestigious days on the Australian and International racing calendar.
Tomorrow’s running of the 163rd Lexus Melbourne Cup will draw crowds of over 90,000 to Flemington and a television audience of over 1 billion people to watch , the “Race that stops a nation”.
The MSS Security team of over 1,000 security and event personnel are on track to ensure estimated crowds of over 200,000 across the week enjoy the racing spectacular safely.
