The Melbourne Cup should be moved from the first Tuesday in November, breaking 150 years of tradition, according to Racing NSW chief executive Peter V'landys.
"They [VRC] should look at it as a national industry. They shouldn't look at it as a Victorian racing industry. I don't think the way it is at the moment is of benefit to the Victorian racing industry let alone the national industry. "Nothing stays the same forever and racing has to be prepared to change and embrace new ideas,'' V'landys told"They want everyone to co-operate but they are not prepared to be flexible with their race dates."Racing needs to do this to stay relevant, it can't just stay the way it has always been because then the sport will go backwards.
