Where to live stream the Melbourne Cup
The Melbourne Cup is affectionately known as the ‘race that stops a nation’, and in the 21st century that moniker has never been more apt, given how ubiquitous the access to the big race now is.
Not so long ago, if you did not have a radio or were not on track, there was no way to experience the Melbourne Cup live. Thankfully, those days are well behind us.
