Watch 'Midget Cup' From Cranbourne Cup Post by: Triple M's Hot Breakfast 13 October, 2009 - 8:29 AM
Victorian racing minister Rob Hulls has slammed a piggy-back race involving dwarfs at Sunday's Cranbourne Cup meeting.
Mr. Hulls described the race, dubbed the 'midget's cup', in the home straight and in front of thousand of Cup enthusiasts as doing nothing to promote the racing industry.
Three participants with short-statured riders, dressed in racing colours, sprinted down the straight for about 50 metres.
One dwarf fell and crashed head first into the turf, but was uninjured.
Is this another case of political corectness gone mad or just some harmless fun at a country race meeting.
Should this race never have taken place or is it an over reaction?

Apparently Rob Hull's wasn't against the concept, just the name. Instead of the Midget Cup the race should have been promoted as the Assisted Conveyance of Non Gender Specific Vertically Challenged Organisms Award. Problem solved!

Can't laugh at Dwarfs or blacks, or Indians or Muslims etc etc.
Lighten up world - learn to laugh at yourself and at others, and see the funny side of life - and the world would be a better place! -
