Just a little FYI for those that might not know-
A mile is a little over 1600 meters.

The racing guides available to us through
http://www.australianracing.com (who also handles the U.S. simulcast feed)
converts the distances to furlongs and miles, so it's easier for us Americans to understand how far they're going. THE RACING GUIDES ARE FREE IF YOU SIGN UP THROUGH THE WEBSITE (with past performances in them).

An FYI to understand how Australia runs things is better shown here. It's actually very informative and helpful, and gives and example of a past performance as well.
