Viewed upsets in the 2008 Melbourne Cup
Tuesday November 4, 2008
Longshot Viewed got the lead in the stretch and held off the late close of Bauer to win the 2008 Melbourne Cup. It was a record 12th Melbourne Cup win for his trainer Bart Cummings, who won his first in 1965, and the first for his jockey Blake Shinn. 10 photos from the race plus US and Austalian pay-offs.
