President’s Message On behalf of the Mt. Wycheproof & District Racing Club Committee, it gives me great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you all for the Elders Mt. Wycheproof Cup Day – Derby Day in the Country. This much-loved race day continues to hold a special place in the hearts of locals and visitors alike. Set against the picturesque backdrop of the Mt. Wycheproof Recreation Reserve, today we celebrate not only an outstanding racing program but also the camaraderie, tradition, and spirit that make country racing so unique. The Mt. Wycheproof Cup is one of the Buloke Shire’s premier community events, it is a day that brings people together from near and far to share in the thrill of the horse racing, the joy of reconnecting with friends and family, and the pride of showcasing our wonderful township. Our Club extends heartfelt thanks to the many individuals and organisations who make this event possible, especially our long-term partners Elders and our race name sponsors: Busbiz, McLennan Bulk Fuel, Hayden Kelly & Family, Nutrien Ag Solutions, bet365 and the Miller Family along with club sponsors Ecycle Solutions, TAC and Pan Pacific Melbourne. There are many groups who support our race day including the Wycheproof Hospital Ladies Auxiliary, the Wycheproof Community Resource Centre, local businesses, and the many volunteers who contribute their time and energy behind the scenes. Your commitment, generosity, and passion are the foundation upon which this great race day event continues to thrive. Events such as today are vital to the ongoing vitality of our region. They foster community spirit, create valuable tourism and economic opportunities, and highlight what makes Country Racing in Victoria so special. To all Owners, Trainers, and Jockeys, we extend a warm welcome and wish you every success both on and off the track. We hope your experience at Mt. Wycheproof is both enjoyable and rewarding as part of Victoria’s distinguished Spring Racing Carnival. Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our dedicated Committee Members and Volunteers, whose tireless work throughout the year ensures that the Elders Mt. Wycheproof Cup Day – Derby Day in the Country remains a highlight on the racing and community calendar. Your enthusiasm, teamwork, and commitment are truly appreciated. May today bring great racing, great company, and lasting memories. Enjoy the magic of Derby Day in the Country! Kevin Thompson President On behalf of the Committee & Volunteers Mt.
