Roman Horse Racing
#16
Getting way off topic and I do apologize for that but if you like good quality staying events on turf you and your wife should visit Melbourne for the Melbourne cup held on the 1st Tuesday in November every year. It is a 3200 metre race, the world's richest turf staying event and used to be a locals only event but now has quite an international flavour with recent winners from Ireland, France, Japan and for the first time last year Germany which up to then was not known for its stayers (In Australia at least). But get there early as it gets pretty crowded. 8-)
