The influence of Asian culture in Melbourne will once again be celebrated at Flemington through experiences focused on food and entertainment. Featuring a hawker-style food market with some of Melbourne’s favourite Asian restaurants, a curated menu of asian-inspired cocktails and beverages, plus themed entertainment across the course. Don’t miss the excitement on the track with some of the world’s fastest horses racing in the Group 1 Black Caviar Lightning (1000m), named after the legendary mare whose stellar career consisted of 25 undefeated races.
In a thrilling addition to the day, the wonder mare, Black Caviar will return to Flemington to take a lap of honour in the Mounting Yard - the scene of so many of her remarkable victories.

Black Caviar captured hearts across the world during her racing career which spanned from 2009 – 2013. Her historic unbeaten record of 25 wins from 25 starts included eight memorable wins at Flemington as well as the nail-biting international victory at Royal Ascot where she took on the world and had fans on the edge of their seats. That victory solidified her status as the world’s best sprinter. See the wonder mare parade in the Flemington Mounting Yard Prior to the Group 1 Black Caviar Lightning.
