Craig's prediction came true. His horse won the Cup and the jockey, J Day wore the armband in Craig's honour as he had been murdered a month before the running of the race.[2] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.races.com.au/melbourne-cup/melbourne-cup-history/past-winners/1861-to-1870-melbourne-cup/#1870 |title=Past Melbourne Cup Winners 1861 to 1870 |publisher=races.com.au}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.craigsroyal.com.au/about/ |title=The Dream Cup of 1870 |publisher=craigs royal.com.au}} 4 : Melbourne Cup winners|1863 racehorse births|Racehorses bred in Australia|Racehorses trained in Australia |
