The Melbourne Autumn Racing Carnival hits its peak today at Flemington Racecourse with two Group 1 features heading the Super Saturday race card – Melbourne race scratchings and a full Flemington track report detailed below.

There is a chance of scattered thunderstorms in Melbourne late this afternoon, but for the most part it should be a rain free day for the races meaning the current Good (4) Flemington track rating looks set to stay.
