The story behind a Cup upset, Aussie colts head overseas and a delay on Rosehill decision

In this episode of Straight Talk, Bren O'Brien and Tim Rowe dive into the Melbourne Cup week. They discuss the surprising victory of Knight's Choice, a horse that defied all odds to claim victory, and the remarkable journey of co-trainer, Sheila Laxon, who returned to the Melbourne Cup winners' circle after 23 years.

The conversation shifts to the broader implications of the race, exploring the pedigree and training strategies that led to this unexpected win. They also highlight the extraordinary ride by Robbie Dolan, whose unique background adds another layer to this year's Melbourne Cup narrative.

Bren and Tim discuss the move of Storm Boy to Aidan O'Brien's stable and the potential for other Australian sprinters, such as Switzerland, to make their mark overseas.

Finally, the hosts give an update on the Rosehill proposal as the Australian Turf Club delays the member vote on the sale of the course until April next year.
