the cup for racing

Have you heard of the Turnbull Stakes, The Sandown Guineas or the Moonee Valley Cup? These races run during The Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival. It is among the biggest and best events that appear on the sporting calendar. Organised in Melbourne, it occurs during the spring season and attracts many contestants from all over the continent. Besides the race, the carnival brings lots of foods, wine, fashion, and entertainment worldwide. As such, the economy in Melbourne and the cities around blossom during this time of the year. This article explores the economic impact that Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival has on the city and its environs.

It Generates Business Opportunities for the Locals

At the onset of the carnival, you can feel the heat from Melbourne. Local businesses begin to brace up to receive visitors and host them in the best possible way. They will start preparing all categories of cuisines and drinks. The hotel industry also blooms as these visitors find a place to stay during the carnival. Most hotels are usually fully booked by this time, hence making full returns for the owners. It is a beautiful time for the locals to reap massively.

It Boosts the Economy by Far

Festivals such as carnivals attract visitors. Visitors will be spending money while in the city, which boosts the local economy (on-site and the environs). For example, those attending the carnival will spend on admission fees, parking fees, food, beverages, and souvenir sales. If every person spends at least $40 per day, this translates into rich pockets for the locals. Looking at a broader perspective, the visitors will make stops at the local gas stations, restaurants, and souvenir shops. When night time comes, they will be spending time at the hotels within the city, bringing more revenue to the locals. Even the Turnball stakes go up. It is a win-win situation.

It Promotes Tourism in Melbourne

When visitors come to the city for the carnival, they are tourists. They will spend time at the carnival for a few days, bringing more money to the city. If they are not at the festival, they will visit the nearby attractions such as museums, national parks, theme parks, and resorts for some outdoor fun. It is a great time to explore Melbourne. As they move around, they will spend on different things such as food and hotels, contributing to more profits to the locals. It is a touristic event that wins better returns for Melbourne. If one sees great spots in Melbourne, they will tell more people about them, promoting tourism. Even better, they might plan to revisit the city and further explore.

It Brings Pride to the Community

How does it feel when you host visitors in your home? Visitors always come with great things. Hosting the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival alone is a prestigious title. The greatest thing about it is that it comes with goodies and profits for the locals in business. In preparation for the event, Melbourne’s administrators’ prep the city and venue in order to accommodate the visitors. It is a plus for the residents.

Carnivals are great. The Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival has been happening every year and has brought loads of benefits to both the attendees and contestants. While they focus on the core values of the business, Melbourne rejoices from the huge economic benefits. It is a touristic event that stimulates tourism growth, the growth of the business, and Melbourne’s economy at large.

Jockey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Australia Pam O’Neill and Linda Jones, in 1979, were the pioneers that forced jockey club officials to grant women the right to compete on an equal footing in registered races against men. They were unquestionably the first women jockeys to be licensed to ride in the metropolitan areas of Australia. Previously women had been riding against men in Australia at the unregistered “all-height” meetings. Pam created a world record for any jockey, male or female, when she rode a treble at Southport on her first day’s riding. Australia’s top woman jockey, Bev Buckingham, became the first woman in the Southern Hemisphere to win 1,000 races.

Another female jockey Anna Rose “Rosie” Napravnik (born February 9, 1988) is an American Thoroughbred horse racing jockey and two-time winner of the Kentucky Oaks.

2013 melbourne cup

So what kinds of bets can you play at the Melbourne cup?

About Fixed Odds Betting

Unlike Tote or tote betting, with Fixed Odds you know exactly how much you stand to win after you have placed your bet. Fixed Odds returns are quoted per $1.00 invested so to calculate your projected payout, simply multiply the amount you wish to invest by the current odds displayed for your selected outcome.

Eg if you bet $1 on the horse and curently the horse odds or payout for winning is  $20 , then you get 1×20 = $20  if the horse wins 

Multi Bet

Multi betting enables you to include a variety of sports and Fixed Odds options in one bet.

The return is calculated by multiplying the prices of each individual selection together to obtain a Multi return for that combination. A Multi selection is called a ‘leg’ and a sport-based Multi can contain anywhere between 2 and 10 legs.

Accumulator betting

This is a variation of the multi bet. Accumulator is a modified form of Multi betting. While Multi bets can be played across sports and bet types, Accumulator is played within one round of a nominated sport and within one bet type.

Accumulators can include 2 to 10 legs, dependent on the sport, and you make selections only in the games you wish to play.Like Multi betting, the return for an Accumulator is calculated by multiplying the individual returns of each selection together.

AFL, NRL, Union (Super 15) and Soccer (English Premier League) are the sports Fixed Odds is currently offering Accumulators on regularly.
