Nick Quinn: Now crowds will be allowed at the famed Melbourne Cup

There'll be a different feel today at the Melbourne Cup.
No crowds will be allowed at the famed Fleming Racecourse because of Covid-19.
Sky Channel race caller Nick Quinn told Mike Hosking he'll be one of the few people allowed inside.
He says it was also like that on Derby Day, when there was an eerie silence as they were running the races.
"What surprised me was there was no broadcast. I still thought the broadcasts would go throughout the track, but it was in total silence asides from a few jockeys yelling at each other."
