Inductees into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame:
LEGEND:
Carbine: An inaugural inductee into the Hall of Fame, Carbine's many famous victories included the 1890 Melbourne Cup in which he carried a record 66kg.
After a short time at stud in Australia, he had an illustrious career as a stallion in England.
More than half of the Melbourne Cup winners from 1914 to 1978 were descendants of Carbine, including Comic Court, Phar Lap, Rising Fast, Rain Lover and Think Big and his blood is carried by many of the champions of the modern era.
Among them are Makybe Diva, Sunline and Japanese champion Deep Impact.
HORSES:
Black Caviar: Undefeated after 23 starts, her latest last Saturday, the Peter Moody-trained mare is rated the world's best sprinter. She has won Group One races in four Australian states and travelled to England in 2012 where she won the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot.
Crisp: Crisp is the first jumper to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. A multiple feature race winner in Australia, he is best remembered for his campaign in England which included his second in the 1973 Grand National Steeplechase when he carried more than 10 kilos more than the winner Red Rum.
Delta: A star of the late 1940s and early 50s, the Maurice McCarten-trained Delta became just the second horse to win the Victoria Derby and Cox Plate in the same year (1949). Two years later he won the Melbourne Cup.
Star Kingdom: The imported English sprinter made his mark in Australia as a champion sire in the 1950s and 60s including his remarkable record of siring the first five Golden Slipper winners.
JOCKEYS:
Geoff Lane: Geoff Lane was champion Victorian apprentice five times and claimed the 1959/60 senior Melbourne premiership in the year he completed his indentures. Lane won 76 feature races, including the 1961 Cox Plate aboard Dhaulagiri, and enjoyed a wonderful association with the horse dubbed the King of Caulfield, Lord, winning 17 races together.
Hugh "Hughie" Cairns: The former New Zealand jockey became one of Australia's great all-rounders competing with distinction in flat and jumps races at the same time. A winner of two Grand National and Australian Hurdles, Cairns became the first jockey to win the Cox Plate and Melbourne Cup in the one year in 1926. He died in a race fall at Moonee Valley in 1929.
