Australian horse racing officials have been criticised for holding a dwarf racing competition at a meeting in Melbourne. The race, where three men carry dwarfs in Jockey silks piggy back down a fifty meter course has been denounced by government officials and advocacy groups.
Victorian racing minister Rob Hulls told state radio.
"I mean the Midget's Cup for goodness sake. It's certainly no way of promoting this great Spring Carnival right around the world, right around Australia and right throughout Victoria."

I wish all horse races were like this. Also, surley the midgets on the tall people agreed with it, so who are the government to make a fuss when no-one is that bothered by it.
