Oliver chasing 4th win with Mustajeer

MELBOURNE: Damien Oliver has had a weekend to remember and he will be trying to parlay that into a Melbourne Cup win on Mustajeer.
Oliver broke the record for most wins by a jockey during Melbourne Cup carnivals with his Wakeful Stakes victory aboard Miami Bound and a few races later put the icing on the cake with a sixth Victoria Derby triumph on Warning.
He rides Mustajeer in the Melbourne Cup, a race he has won three times aboard Doriemus (1995), Media Puzzle (2002) and Fiorente (2013). A fourth win would put Oliver equal with Bobbie Lewis and Harry White as the most successful Melbourne Cup jockeys.
The winner of this year’s Ebor Handicap at York, a good European form reference, Mustajeer was bought by Australian Bloodstock to target the Cups. – AAP
