It's Melbourne Cup Day

While the country stands still for the running of the Melbourne Cup at Flemington, there will be a word or two spoken about great race horses of the past.

Phar Lap may have the premier place in Australia's affection for the horse, but in my family a love for another champion was also handed down.

So for my Poppa - here's the great Carbine in all his glory.
