Melbourne Cup
Iwan WALTERS (Greenvale) (10:15): Last week, as we know, was cup week, and I was delighted to join the last leg of the Melbourne Cup tour – the Lexus Australian Melbourne Cup tour – which made its way to Living Legends in my electorate of Greenvale, where the compere Eddie McGuire hosted a fantastic event with Andrew and the team from Living Legends. The Victorian Racing Club were deeply involved in sponsoring the event. It was a terrific day where hundreds of people from across the community joined us at Living Legends and celebrated the cup, emphasising the $4 billion economic contribution that racing makes to our state, the many people across the state who are employed by it and the fantastic contribution it makes in Greenvale.
