    • RIP Big Mike .....very popular , friendly person and successful trainer. Thoughts go out to his family and friends. I was lucky enough to meet him at his Stable day just last Cup week in Melbourne.
    • Moroney dreamed of 2000 Cup win www.racing.com   Mike Moroney's name will be forever found in history as a Melbourne Cup-winning trainer, but Moroney also furthered Cup folklore like few others with the win of Brew in 2000.   Most Australasian-based trainers grow up dreaming of Melbourne Cup glory, but it was not a matter of mere daydreaming or wishful thinking for the popular Kiwi horseman, as he woke one morning in 1998 trying to make sense of the night's events.   In a dream, he saw a horse called Brew win a Melbourne Cup by two lengths, carrying saddlecloth No.24. What he found immediately strange was that the jockey was wearing a black cap with Moroney's stable colours of pale blue and black sleeves, instead of the traditional red cap.   Brew, who found his way into Moroney's stables the following season after a failed overseas sale, only won his way into the Melbourne Cup field in 2000 via his Saab Quality (2500m) victory three days earlier. There for all to see in Melbourne Cup publications around the world were his jockey's Cup colours of pale blue, black sleeves and a black cap.   As it had turned out, Moroney's Victoria Derby winner of the previous season, Second Coming, was considered the best hope in the 2000 Melbourne Cup and so his jockey was given the red cap to wear. He ultimately finished third, with the Jack Denham-trained Yippyio splitting the Moroney pair.   Brew carried saddlecloth No.24 for his young jockey Kerrin McEvoy and he won by two lengths.   WATCH: Brew's 2000 Melbourne Cup win
    • Me thinks his first two words were a friendly greeting ......Kia Ora Tatou . ' Hello Everyone ' Came out Koro Tata !
    • Anyone know how he is? His return seems to have been delayed.
    • Very sad…. Seemed a top bloke…
