Watch The 2011 Melbourne Cup Live Stream Online

The $6.175 million Emirates Melbourne Cup is one of the most spectacular sporting events in the world and it has been the highlight of Australia’s Spring Racing Carnival for many years.

As a race, the Melbourne Cup needs very little introduction and the contest remains the jewel in the Australian racing crown. The Flemington showpiece has the ability to grip on the whole of Australia and there is nothing quite like being there amongst the 100,000 plus crowd.

Luckily for fans of the race that can’t be there to witness the action first hand, there are a number of ways to watch the Melbourne Cup live online.

Also famously known as the ‘Loving Cup,’ the Melbourne showpiece is the highlight of an exhilarating Festival that lasts for 65 days and attracts more spectators than any other meeting in the world. It is the most watched five minutes of television each year without fail and millions of fans tune in to the Melbourne Cup live stream.

The first ever Melbourne Cup was run in 1861 and ever since the roll of honour for the great race has been dominated by some of the most famous race horses the world has ever seen. The likes or Phar Lap and Makybe Diva are mentioned in households all over the world every day of the year and their exploits on the track were enough to demand the love and attention of a nation.

Racing fans will already be looking for the best 2011 Melbourne Cup tips and Aussie punters will be desperately searching for the winner of the world’s most famous race.

Will there be a superstar lurking in the field of this year’s race? Last year’s contest was won by French raider Americain and Bart Cummings’ sensational So You Think was back in third and it looks likely that there will be another racing sensation to emerge from the pack in 2011.
