2024 Melbourne Cup Trends
Run each year on the first Tuesday in November the Melbourne Cup is dubbed as ‘the race that stops a nation’ and run over 2 miles it’s the richest handicap run over that distance in the world.
The 2024 race will be staged on Tuesday 5th November and in 2023 we saw the Anthony and Sam Freedman-trained Without A Fight win the race.
Staged at Flemington racecourse in Melbourne (Australia), the race always attracts runners from all corners of the globe, but there are also many key pointers and trends to help you find the winner of the Melbourne Cup.
