In fact, O'Brien senior, Britain and Ireland's champion trainer, was only denied the addition of Australia's most famous race to his CV when Rekindling, with three kilos in hand, ran down his challenger Johannes Vermeer (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the dying strides of the race to cross the line almost half a length to the good. Though racing as a 4-year-old in Australia, the British-bred Rekindling became the first 3-year-old winner of the Melbourne Cup since Skipton in 1941. In so doing he gave owner Lloyd Williams a sixth victory in the race and second in a row following the triumph last year of Almandin (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}), who this time finished 12th. "I'm a proud Melburnian and the Melbourne Cup means everything to me. I'm 77 now and I've been watching the race for the last 70 years. It's become an obsession," said Williams, who, with son Nick and a variety of partners was responsible for six of the 23 runners in the race, including the runner-up. "Joseph's a star, an absolute star. I've been telling people that his dad needs to watch out." Cont. p2 #CapeAbility

G1 Melbourne Cup Cont. Willie Mullins saw all three of his Cup runners finish in the top 10, with Rich Ricci=s Max Dynamite in third and Thomas Hobson (GB) (Halling) sixth, while the Nick Peacock-owned Wicklow Brave (GB) (Beat Hollow {GB}) was 10th. He said of 7-year-old Max Dynamite, who was making his second start in the race but has been lightly campaigned of late, "He was travelling well at all stages and I thought if he could just get out he might have just finished off but he didn't quite have the legs for it. Even if he'd had another run, probably trying to beat those two horses might have been beyond him as they both had fantastic form. He thrives when he comes here but at his age it's hard to see him coming back here next year." Eleven of the 23 starters in the 2017 Melbourne Cup are trained in Europe, and six of those were among the first seven to cross the line at Flemington.
