Irish jockey Robbie Dolan achieved a remarkable upset by riding 90-1 outsider Knight's Choice to victory in the Lexus Melbourne Cup, overcoming a field of strong European contenders. Dolan, who previously gained fame on the reality show The Voice, expressed disbelief at his win, stating, 'Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming!' This victory marks a significant milestone in Dolan's career, as he had never ridden in the Melbourne Cup before. Knight's Choice, trained by John Symons and Sheila Laxon, surged ahead in the final moments to narrowly defeat Japanese horse Warp Speed. Other favored European horses, including Vauban and Sea King, failed to perform, with Absurde finishing fifth. Dolan's father surprised him by attending the race, making the victory even more special as he celebrated with family.
