The Melbourne Cup is held on the 1st of November every year. It’s a major annual horseracing event which attracts global attention. However, the Coalition for the Protection of Racehorses believes that the event is unethical and is staging a protest along Auckland’s waterfront this afternoon, where many venues will be screening the race.

Casper spoke to Aya Oba from the Coalition for the Protection of Racehorses, to discuss the protest and the group's views on what they call an exploitative and abusive industry.
