Melbourne Cup Carnival remains Australia's biggest racing event
The Melbourne Cup Carnival has again produced the four-best attended racedays across the nation with world-class racing, fashion, dining and entertainment enjoyed by more than 276,000 people at Flemington Racecourse this week. The jewel in the crown of the 2019 Carnival, the Lexus Melbourne Cup, saw a win for Australia, with Flemington trainer Danny O’Brien combining with champion jockey Craig Williams to clinch the $8 million race with Vow and Declare.

Emotional win for Robbie Griffiths
The Flemington Carnival ended on an emotional note when Halvorsen, a horse bred, part-owned and trained by Cranbourne-based Robbie Griffiths, stormed home to win the final race on Saturday. Don Healy, also a part-owner of the talented four-year-old, broke down during an interview after the race as he was recalling how Griffiths had only returned to work earlier that morning after a long break following surgery for a brain aneurysm.

Brave Hartnell bids farewell
Hartnell produced a typically brave performance to bow out of racing with another Group 1 placing in Saturday's Seppelt Mackinnon Stakes (2000m) at Flemington. Godolphin's retiring star looked a winning chance at the top of the straight when he claimed the lead from Gailo Chop but was quickly collared by eventual winner Magic Wand. The

Magic Wand wins Mackinnon
The Irish mare Magic Wand has finally broken through at Group 1 level after six times being the bridesmaid when she spoiled the farewell for Hartnell with her win in the Seppelt Mackinnon Stakes at Flemington on Saturday. The Coolmore-owned mare, who was backing up from unplaced runs in the Cox Plate (fourth) and Lexus Melbourne Cup (10th), powered away under Ryan Moore to win by a length from fellow mare Melody Belle, who narrowly failed to make it an eighth G1 win in 2019.

Price gets it right
If making the most of what's on hand is part of a racehorse trainer's skill set, then Mick Price and his co-trainer Michael Kent Jr have surely hit the mark at Flemington this week. After winless carnivals at Caulfield and The Valley, the training partners finished with three winners from just nine runners over the four days at Flemington following the thrilling Group 2 Matriarch Stakes victory of Oceanex. Oceanex

A Truly international win
Melbourne Cup week is truly an international event, as True Self's victory highlighted in Saturday's $300,000 Group 3 Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2600m). True Self, a six-year-old Irish mare bought for jumping, won for Irish trainer Willie Mullins and England's champion flat rider Ryan Moore, while among his ownership was Londoner Andy Gemmell. Gemmell and Mullins are no strangers to Australia.
