For my dad and my husband

Friday, August 22, 2008

Having born in City that has its own hippodrome or racetrack has opened my mind in the way most people in our place loved to go there and bet for their favorite horses and jockeys.

In 2000, the City has removed this place to put on a mall and condominiums and the people were against this move but the court has made the decision. Most aficionados were left with betting through a local place which shows a televise broadcast of the races. Like many of these people is my husband who also goes to the races before I met him and he introduces me to many events like the MELBOURNE CUP, the Kentucky Derby and our own President’s Cup.

Along with my husband is my dad who also loves the sport and even opened a betting station in our area. So when I heard of the MELBOURNE CUP, they are the two people that came to my mind right away. My husband plans to take family for a vacation to Australia which will coincide with the dates when the MELBOURNE CUP is being held. I’m sure my dad and my husband will have a great there.
