Popular 4 year old race-mare Ningaloo Star scored a gutsy victory on Melbourne Cup Day at Randwick over 1300m in a BM 64 for John Sargent.  Molly Bourke gave her a 10 out of 10 ride, allowing Ningaloo Star to find her place in the pack ensuring she was always up near the pace. Rounding the home turn, Ningaloo Star showed impressive acceleration to boldly take the lead and she held on for a really tenacious win.

"She has been flying, this mare, without any luck," said James Moss, Director of Tricolours Racing "Today it all came together, and it was the sweetest of victories. She thoroughly deserved that win, and it was a thrill to win on Cup Day at Royal Randwick"

Congratulations to all her owners and connections.
