Need to know the final 2011 Melbourne Cup finishing order? Look no further with all the information you need to know exactly where your horse finished in the race that stops a nation.
At the top of the field it was the closest finish in the history of the race with Dunaden just getting up ahead of Red Cadeaux on the line.
Lucas Cranach run a tough race to hold on for second while Americain put in a huge performance to come from nowhere and run into the photo.
Amazingly the top seven horses where all overseas trained runners with only two Australian trainers taking home any prize money at all.
For those playing the office sweeps it was Modun that was eased down to last on the line.
Duanden paid a healthy $9.20 top price at Luxbet while Red Cadeaux was a massive $14.30 for second and Lucas Cranach $4.50 for third.
