This race saw a 14-horse field compete.[1] This year's Melbourne Cup was best remembered for Phar Lap who had won the Australian Derby and Victoria Derby carrying 47 kg. The three-year-old refused to settle under Bobby Lewis and only ran third behind fellow Night Raid-sired horse, Nightmarch, which also won the Epsom Handicap. Nightmarch became the first horse to win the Cup and the W. S. Cox Plate in the same year.[2]
