In the race, he was ridden by Michelle Payne, who became the first female jockey to win the race.[4][3] BackgroundPrince of Penzance is a bay gelding with a white blaze bred by Rich Hill Stud in the Matamata region of New Zealand's North Island. He was sired by Pentire, a British horse who recorded his biggest win in the 1996 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes and had his biggest success in New Zealand where he sired Mufhasa (Telegraph Handicap), Rangirangdoo (Doncaster Mile) and Xcellent as well as Prince of Penzance.[5] His dam Royal Successor is a daughter of the Irish-bred mare Only Royale who won the Yorkshire Oaks in 1993 and 1994.[6] The name is a reference to the place name of Penzance in Cornwall. Racing careerPrince of Penzance's first notable win was in autumn 2014, in the Listed Mornington Cup Prelude.[1] Races in the remainder of the year, and in early 2015, resulted in wins and placings, including a win the Moonee Valley Gold Cup, a second place in the Queen Elizabeth Handicap and a third in the Zipping Classic.[1] In the 2015 Melbourne Cup, Prince of Penzance started a 100/1 outsider in a 24-runner field. The Japanese challenger Fame Game was the 4/1 favourite ahead of British gelding Trip To Paris, the winner of the Ascot Gold Cup. Other overseas contenders included Max Dynamite, Bondi Beach and Kingfisher from Ireland, Big Orange (Goodwood Cup), Snow Sky (Hardwicke Stakes), Quest For More (Northumberland Plate) and Red Cadeaux from England and Hokko Brave from Japan. The best of the Australian-trained contingent appeared to be Preferment (Turnbull Stakes), Almoonqith (Geelong Cup) and Criterion (Australian Derby). Prince of Penzance was always travelling strongly, took the lead in the last 100 metres and won by half a length from Max Dynamite with Criterion in third.[7] Pedigree{{Pedigree|name = Prince Of Penzance (NZ), bay gelding, 2009[2] |inf = |f = Pentire (GB) 1992 |m = Royal Successor (USA) 1999 |ff = Be My Guest (USA) 1983 |fm = Gull Nook (GB) 1983 |mf = Mr Prospector (USA) 1970 |mm = Only Royale (IRE) 1989 |fff = Northern Dancer |ffm = What A Treat |fmf = Mill Reef |fmm = Bempton |mff = Raise A Native |mfm = Gold Digger |mmf = Caerleon |mmm = Etoile de Paris |ffff = Nearctic |fffm = Natalma |ffmf = Tudor Minstrel |ffmm = Rare Treat |fmff = Never Bend |fmfm = Milan Mill |fmmf = Blakeney |fmmm = Hardiemma |mfff = Native Dancer |mffm = Raise You |mfmf = Nashua |mfmm = Sequence |mmff = Nijinsky |mmfm = Foreseer |mmmf = Crowned Prince |mmmm = Place d'Etoile (Family: 9-e)[6] }} References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|url=https://www.racing.com/horses/prince-of-penzance-nz|title=Prince of Penzance (NZ)|publisher=Racing.com|accessdate=3 November 2015}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.equineline.com/Free-5X-Pedigree.cfm?page_state=ORDER_AND_CONFIRM&reference_number=8829931®istry=T&horse_name==Prince%20Of%20Penzance%20(NZ)&dam_name=Royal%20Successor&foaling_year=2009&nicking_stats_indicator=Y|title=Prince Of Penzance pedigree |publisher=equineline.com |date= |accessdate=}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/73656498/kiwibred-prince-of-penzance-wins-melbourne-cup|date=3 November 2015|accessdate=3 November 2015|author=Tom Decent and Greg Tourelle|title=Kiwi-bred Prince of Penzance wins Melbourne Cup|publisher=Stuff.co.nz}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/sport/288777/prince-of-penzance-wins-melbourne-cup|author=Radio New Zealand and agencies|publisher=Radio New Zealand|title=Prince of Penzance wins Melbourne Cup|accessdate=3 November 2015|date=3 November 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://bloodstock.racingpost.com/stallionbook/stallion.sd?horse_id=95466&popup=1|title=Pentire - Stud Record|work=Racing Post}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.bloodlines.net/TB/Families/Family9e.htm |title=Maid Of Masham - Family 9-e |publisher=Thoroughbred Bloodlines |date= |accessdate=2013-08-10}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.racingpost.com/horses/result_home.sd?race_id=633911&r_date=2015-11-03&popup=yes#results_top_tabs=re_&results_bottom_tabs=ANALYSIS|title=Melbourne Cup result|work=Racing Post}} Further reading{{refbegin}}
