- description: It started with glory and ended in tragedy. The Japanese galloper, who had been placed at a Japan Cup prior to coming to Australia, took the carnival by storm and was made favourite for the Melbourne Cup. But after being placed near the front for much of the race, the Tomoyuki Umeda-trained horse pulled up in the straight to finish last. Then as it returned from the course after the race, Admire Rakti collapsed in the stalls and despite attempts to revive him, the horse died at the track to cast a pall over Cup day.
