Special Guest: Clare Lindop On November 1, 2008 Clare Lindop steered Rebel Raider to victory in the Victoria Derby. Five years earlier her life had changed forever when she drew attention for becoming the first Australian female to ride in the Melbourne Cup on Debben for Leon Macdonald; a race she has now ridden in 3 times. She is recognised as one of Australia’s leading jockeys – and its most accomplished female jockey ever. After moving to Adelaide’s Morphettville Racecourse to complete her apprenticeship, she has since claimed two SA Metropolitan Jockey Premierships, three Group 1 races and has ridden over 700 winners in Australia and abroad.
