Melbourne Cup street parade.

Melbourne knows how to make an event of a single horse race (especially when it's one worth many, many millions of dollars to the winner!)

Lovely capture of excited crowd

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thanks Jackie - they had several famous past winners in the parade - big favourites with the crowd. :)

Nice to see the Union Jack there. As I look at this there is a programme on the radio about horse racing/breeding in Ireland and England...another of these indivisible
things snagged by brexit.

Nicely caught...

@woofandweft1 It was actually an Irish horse which won the race. The youngest horse with the youngest trainer to ever win the Melbourne Cup. - Rekindling was its name. How is Brexit going to effect the racing industry? Adversely?
