Let's Elope hit the front in the Cup 300 metres to run, Ivory Way battling back then Super Impose and Sheva's Revenge late. But Let's Elope has burst away and the Foster's Melbourne Cup belongs to the mare! Let's Elope bolts the cup in wins by three lengths and it's a Cummings quinella! Sheva's Revenge got second close up on the inside Magnolia Hall.
Commentator Dan Mielicki describes the climax of the race
The 1991 Melbourne Cup was a two-mile handicap horse race which took place on Tuesday, 5 November 1991. The race was run over 3,200 metres (1.988 mi), at Flemington Racecourse.
The Cup was won by the New Zealand bred mare Let's Elope and was the ninth of Bart Cummings' twelve victories in the event. It was the only win by Steven King in the Melbourne Cup.[1]
Let's Elope had previously won the Turnbull Stakes, Caulfield Cup and Mackinnon Stakes in a row and went into the race as the 3/1 favourite on a fast track. She won by 2.5 lengths from the fast finishing Shiva's Revenge who was also trained by Bart Cummings, with Magnolia Hall third.[2]
