10 August 2023 Written by VRC

The enduring allure of the Lexus Melbourne Cup is a unifying force, bridging urban and regional communities alike. The Cup Tour's latest stop, Broome, has a magic that is undeniable. The contrast between the azure waters and the red earth creates a stunning spectacle, coupled with the pearl farms and the camels on Cable Beach.

It was also a symbol of the shared dream, especially for the local jockeys who saw the trophy as a reflection of the ambition and dedication that underpins their journey. LMCT ambassador and dual Melbourne Cup-winning jockey Jim Cassidy accompanied the trophy to this stunning corner of Australia, in a role he describes as an 'honour'.
