Melbourne Cup hero Vintage Crop passed at the age of 27. The only winner of the Melbourne Cup I've ever backed I think!! Way back in 1993! RIP http://m.rte.ie/sport/touch/racing/2014/0714/630764-melbourne-cup-hero-vintage-crop-dies-aged-27/

Sad news. I read about it in the paper last night. I was glad to see him again when I paid a visit to ye National Stud last year. I still remember waking up to hear the news about his win all this years ago. Sadly I'd no money on him.
