Lloyd Williams, the winner of the Melbourne Cup, now holds the title of the most successful owner in the history of the world’s greatest horse race.
With five Melbourne Cup victories under his belt, Lloyd Williams has made a significant mark, while jockey Kerrin McEvoy has celebrated his second win in the race.
What an exceptional day it is to be an Australian and to simply be in Australia.
Almandin was priced at $11, offering nice value for victory in the race.
As the finish line approached, Heartbreak City took the lead, but Almandin surged forward in a dramatic ‘last gasp’ finish to claim victory by a head.
McEvoy expressed that Almandin had been ‘travelling like a winner’.
