Which jockey has won the most Melbourne Cups?

Ashrun
German raider Ashrun has secured the last spot in the Melbourne Cup with his victory at Flemington.

The Melbourne Cup 2021 is set to unfold on Tuesday, November 2.

As this is the race that stops the nation a lot of people will be trying to work out who too back in such a large field of 24. With the barrier draw out and seeing the line up of all the top quality horses, all punters will be having to look into the runner by runner guides but smart punters will also be digging a little deeper for this one.

One key bit of information that will help decide who too back with the online bookmakers will be by looking at the jockeys. The jockey is one crucial Melbourne Cup statistic that will come into play as they have the power to decide where to position the horse in running and then when to let them go for the finish line.
