what came next for Protectionist is even more unbelievable... he had a disastrous year in Australia, didn't win anything, and returned to Andreas Woehler in Germany for the 2016 season. There, his Trainer managed to get him back in shape... Protectionist won 3 more races in Germany that year, including one Group 2 and the Group 1 Großer Preis von Berlin. A masterpiece of training, in my opinion.

[@betjambestbets2868]

The best performance we have seen in years. The turn of foot was sensational. A well deserving winner!

[@Neilsyboy1]

Spot on

[@bgardiner3354]

It was Galilee-like

[@BossBelsham]

Had a dream run/split though, didn't do it tough at all. You want to see the best performance? Check the 1983 melbourne cup, horse called Kiwi.

What a brilliant ride,a masterful performance by horse and jockey. I’ve been to 24 Melbourne Cups and that was the largest win margin I saw of all of them. Jockey Ryan Moore is one of the absolute BEST! 👍

[@sckettch]

You ran like champions Admine Rakki & Araldo. You won't be forgotten, there are people who will fight for what happened to you

[@sebastianvanderschoor3904]

The run from Perfectionist was fantastic. The last 400 - 500m in particular. Started the last turn in the pack than found a gap in the field and absolutely pierced it. Finished strongly as well. Looked like it still had a bit in it

[@danfrost3043]

Red Cadeux, for me, the real winner, 2nd in 3 Melb Cups.....Outstanding Horse

[@MrBrandonDylan]

Yeah I had him, I was spewing when Protectionist chase him down on the straight.

RIP admire rakti you ran a great race

[@101wildgoose]

No he didn't, he was last.

[@Jimmy911ism]

Ally Wildgoose Yes he did. Something happened to him just before the turn. Until then he gave a great sight.

[@MsJubjubbird]

Ally Wildgoose You can see before 2:40 he was running second the whole time. Then he just dropped back completely into oblivion. I don't even know if the last horse on camera was him or if they couldn't be bothered waiting. I know it didn't save the horse but it was the right decision by the jockey. He could have thought stuff it, 800m I'm going to make him go for it and win. And then there was a freak accident 10 minutes later because some stupid parent didn't stop their kid from waving a flag in a highly strung very large animal's face.

[@therobbieunited]

I AGREE. PS what a face

Remembering those few horses that they all were bred from

[@pother67]

What a fantastic trip for protectionist... hope the connections sets his next target on the japan cup or the hong kong vase

[@GBeret83]

kenny choi , I'm not sure about the Japan Cup, but Protectionist is one of the horses nominated for the upcoming G1 Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin in December.

Not really, the winner won fairly obviously.

[@InocenciaRubia]

RIP Admire Rakti

[@VsNxLynx]

On again today!

[@nufftheninja8356]

Rip admire.... I'm sure that if he wouldn't of had a heart attack he would of taken first. Sucks that some horses are pushed until the very end....

[@eddymcpre]

I won about 800 quid with a reverse forecast in this. Quality race

[@Andrewtm23]

admire rakti, some form of sudden death syndrome/cot death. Poor thing, let's wait for the post mortem

[@keenice5271]

Cot death get real the cup killed him

[@adamknight5089]

Anyone know the name of the racecaller?

[@matthewsalier3025]

Greg Miles. No longer calls races I have noticed this year.

[@Jd3dom]

It was sad Admire rakti dies of heart attack and another horse dies as he spooked at a child Waving a flag in the mounting yards, he shattered his cannon bone

[@markchristmas743]

the best race in the world is the derby at epsom downs

[@robertbonter1190]

+Mark christmas Actually The Arc, the race in Dubai, and the Breeders Cup Classic are the top three races in the world. The Derby is restricted to three year olds. You win a Group 1 race in the handicap division, then you can brag a little.

[@tjcassidy2694]

I know the MC is 3200m, but how far around is one lap at Flemington?

[@patrickmolan7590]

About 2,300 metres. Just a touch over I believe.

[@chrisasterion2051]

the only bet of the year, was a $100 quinella & both horses died, in the same fckn race, tell me I'm not MUSH.................

[@richmondtigersedits6492]

i picked protectionist out of a hat. i swapped with my brother to who i betted on but then he changed his mind and we swapped back. that move lost him 70 bucks

[@Mahatheyew]

lmao. no one cares about $70 your bro lost 3 years ago dude. people win/lose tens of thousands on this race.

Nothing is cruel in racing, especially flat racing. It could happen in a field

Abstract

[@peternorth2964]

Do we ban Golf? People DIE playing Golf!

[@bgardiner3354]

Fairly predictable outcome and a super win by Protectionist. Terrible for the connections of Admire Ratki. For mine at his top would have gone very close to the winner.

[@tahjaana]

My dads horse came gorst and we got money im so happy

[@101wildgoose]

gorst? I'm unfamiliar with that placing. I thought EW bets covered you for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th. I never thought to put a bet on a horse finishing gorst. IDIOT!

[@briearnmandile-wells563]

Ally Wildgoose I'm sure they meant first. If you read the context correctly and took a moment before being a keyboard warrior, you'd have realised that before making yourself the real idiot.

[@beders123]

Ally Wildgoose ew bets only cover you for 1st 2nd and 3rd?

[@101wildgoose]

beders123 Not if there's 16 or more runners. Some bookies even do EW up to five places.

[@101wildgoose]

Briearn Mandile-Wells Sarcasm is lost on you isn't it?

[@bugisami]

EMIRATES Melbourne Cup? Wtf?

[@beders123]

Emirates the airline company, which sponsors the race.

[@bugisami]

I know, but the whole business sounds so tawdry. Besides,the bastards had "EMIRATES" plastered all over the continent. Wasn't that enough? What's next? Horses and jockeys wearing the same el cheapo slogan? I stopped watching the FA cup the day it became the Milk Cup.

Another horse dies for our 'entertainment' and the profit of shysters. Disgraceful!

[@fluffybunnygamers2464]

I AGREE JUST YOU WAIT TILL YOU SEE MY COMMENT MATEY

[@HBLA]

I'm really sad because i chose the horse that i thought was going to win and that horse was Admire Rakti and then Protectionest and then Faukner and Admire Rakti died 5 minutes after the race and the other horse Araldo was sent to the vets in need of serious treetment but sadly didn't make it

[@seamonkeys12y]

It is very rare for a horse to die in these things.

[@HBLA]

yeah that's right

[@timmacdougall7723]

2 horses dead in just one race. So sad

[@mcalpha3]

Admire Rakti was drugged, I'm almost certain.

[@Andrew-wv6fy]

Ze germans ja!

[@Janeearlephotography]

Terrible ... yet another horse dead and one with a broken leg.

[@fluffybunnygamers2464]

BUT IT HAD TO DIE TOO

[@646-48]

fluffybunny gamers FYI if a horse breaks it's leg it is almost a certainty that it will be put down. Unlike humans, horses don't have hands to hold crutches.

[@peace-now]

Horse was annoyed by a troll with a large flag. This person terrorised the animal so much that it died.

[@fluffybunnygamers2464]

Yeah true but a idiot caused it horse racing is animal cruelty that's why that horse died of a heart attack so fuck of

[@bgardiner3354]

That same 'idiot' was there all day. 100 plus horses before that passed by without incident. It was an awful turn of events, and measures have been put in place to prevent recurrence. An idiot with a flag though is one of a multitude of similar situations a horse will come across on race day, especially at a day like the Melbourne Cup. Fluffybunny Ibenico died of a heart attack in a paddock at home. Is that cruelty also?

[@fluffybunnygamers2464]

THIS WAS TERRIBLE THE EVENT IS ANNIMAL CRUESLTY NO WONNDER 2 HORSES DIED ONE OF THEM PROBABLY WANTED TO BE KILLED ITS IS SO BAD

[@HBLA]

you my friend have no pride and love for animals

[@HBLA]

you should have been stuck on the track in front of all of those horses

[@Jimmy911ism]

Would you rather they were pet food or glue?

[@peace-now]

James Brennan Stay in England. Please.

[@HBLA]

haha nice one

[@TahliaMorin]

It's sad that we find entertainment in this, we're pretty much killing these beautiful creatures!
