Retiring great Damien Oliver is relying on a frisky Frenchman to give him a special send-off with a record-equalling fourth Melbourne Cup victory. Oliver will be on board Alenquer next Tuesday during his final Victorian spring carnival at Flemington.

Damien Oliver secures Melbourne Cup ride on Alenquer. The 51-year-old rode the French-bred gelding in Friday’s Moonee Valley Gold Cup and had little luck, finishing ninth behind Cleveland. But Oliver believes Alenquer can help him capture one last Cup, following his wins on Doriemus , Media Puzzle and Fiorente . In his 32nd ride in the $8 million race, a victory would put him equal with the record of four wins by a jockey, shared by Bobbie Lewis and Harry White.
