Well I hate horse racing quite a bit, so that's some claim you're making there.

Yeah probably exaggerating a bit...but it sure does annoy me how they glamorise and humanise racing horses. "Shes a tru champion"...sheesus its a horse. It doesnt even know why its being wacked in the back and just wants to eat, shit and root!!!! The whole culture makes me shudder. Barely a sport.
 
Growing up in country Victoria we didn't get a day off on Cup day. Think we got another one somewhere else in the year in lieu, but Cup Day we were always at school/work.

At my primary school we got to choose between having a day off on Melbourne cup day, or having a day off on Geelong show day :D
