This week, Bryan Martin caught up with Wendy Green, owner of 1999 Melbourne Cup winner Rogan Josh on This is your Racing Life.

Wendy is a fabulous character who truly captures the ‘spirit’ of racing. After winning the Cup, Wendy, a Darwin school-teacher, returned to Northern Australia by car celebrating her win with larger-than-life folk in remote places of the Outback. Along the way she was also asked to perform the ‘christening’ one little boy by pouring French Champagne from the Cup itself!

There has never been a more colourful post-Cup celebration in the history of Australia’s greatest race. Listen back to Wendy’s remarkable story.
