Victoria Racing Club will prohibit people from taking flags into horse areas at Flemington racetrack for the remainder of the Spring Racing Carnival. The 150-metre winners’ race will also not be used on Oakes Day and the Emirates Stakes meeting. "Araldo" had to be put down after injuring a leg when he reacted to an Australian flag being waved while returning to his enclosure following the Melbourne Cup
