No international horse has won the Melbourne Cup twice and Frankie Dettori has not won the race at all.
This just in from Reuters News Service MELBOURNE: Efficient unleashed a devastating late sprint Tuesday to win the 147th running of the Melbourne Cup, Australia’s richest and most popular horse. F W Cook, Mrs C M Cook, Ms C E Curtis, A Brooks, J Woo, Mrs B Woo & M Mullane. Melbourne Cup: only a horse race.
But both Cross Counter, to be ridden by William Buick, and the flamboyant Dettori aboard Master Of Reality, will bid to rewrite the record books at Flemington on Tuesday.
And they won’t be alone.
Vow And Declare, Surprise Baby and Youngstar are the patriotic favourites as the only horses with a local trainer, a local jockey and solely local form.
Along with another nine Australian-trained runners, the trio has the task to stop the flow of Melbourne Cup trophies overseas with five of the past nine winners, and the past two in succession, trained internationally.
As the defending titleholder, Cross Counter has to overcome a 6.5kg weight rise to become the first dual Cup winner from the northern hemisphere while Dettori must beat a Melbourne Cup hoodoo that spans more than 25 years.
Having ridden in Australia’s most famous race 16 times, with his best results seconds aboard Central Park (1999) and Max Dynamite (2015), one of the world’s most celebrated jockeys is desperate to add the Melbourne Cup to his resume.Melbourne Cup Horse Owners
“I know him well and I can tell you this race at this point of his career means more to him than any race in the world right now because it’s probably one of the few things he hasn’t been able to win,” Nick Williams, part owner of Master Of Reality said.

Also trying to snare the Cup for the first time is Craig Williams on Vow And Declare after missing the winning ride on Dunaden in 2011 through suspension.
Vow And Declare’s trainer Danny O’Brien says his charge is the quintessential Melbourne Cup horse and can keep the trophy in Australia.
“He is owned by an Australian, trained by an Australian and ridden by an Australian,” O’Brien said. “Every part of him is Australian.
“It would be nice to turn the tide back a little bit on what’s been going on for the last decade and show we’ve still got the ability to have a Melbourne Cup horse born, bred and trained in Australia.”
29 FACTS ABOUT THE MELBOURNE CUP
FIRST run in 1861 under the banner of the Victorian Turf Club and won by the Etienne de Mestre-trained Archer who beat the favourite Mormon by six lengths. The prize was 1420 pounds and the trophy a gold watch.
ARCHER came back the following year to beat Mormon, this time by eight lengths, a record margin that still stands (it was equalled in 1968 by Rain Lover).
DE MESTRE would go on to train three other winners of the Melbourne Cup – Tim Whiffler (1867), Chester (1877) and Calamia (1878).
BART Cummings claimed the first of his 12 Melbourne Cups in 1965 with Light Fingers. The following year stablemate Galilee was the only horse to prevent Light Fingers making it back-to-back Cups and in 1967 Red Handed gave the legendary trainer his third straight victory.
CUMMINGS’ other winners were Think Big (1974, 1975), Gold And Black (1977), Hyperno (1979), Kingston Rule (1990), Let’s Elope (1991), Saintly (1996), Rogan Josh (1999) and Viewed (2008).
