Three-time Melbourne Cup winner Damien Oliver is facing last-minute heartbreak for his farewell to the 3200m classic on Tuesday. Alenquer’s trainer Mike Moroney is in a race against time to have the $61 chance ready after a veterinary’s discovery following trackwork on Sunday morning. The stable advised Racing Victoria stewards that the gelding suffered a stone bruise.
“It’ll be great to be a part of his fairy tale, wouldn’t it,” Moroney said after the barrier draw on Saturday. “Don’t mind being a part of that. He’s had 31 rides and I’ve had 24 runners so we’re both seasoned.” Moroney trained Brew to victory in the Melbourne Cup in 2000. Meanwhile, Vauban firmed as a $3.20 race favourite after drawing barrier three.
