Makybe Diva FROM CHAMPION TO LEGEND
M akybe Diva may never have become the household name if not for the purchase of famed mare, Tugela. Croatian-born Port Lincoln tuna fisherman Tony Santic enlisted the services of John Foote Bloodstock to purchase an American-bred broodmare. The mare was in foal to Irish Derby winner Desert King and was knocked down at 60,000 Guineas at the 1998 Tattersall’s December Mare Sale at Newmarket, UK. The resultant filly was offered for sale as a weanling, but failed to attract a bid. Not knowing what to do with the young horse, Santic had her sent to Australia with her mother. The unusual name of the three-time Melbourne Cup winning mare was derived by taking the first two letters from each of the names of employees at Tony’s Tuna, owned by Tony Santic in Port Lincoln at the time – Maureen, Kylie, Belinda, Diane, and Vanessa. Little did they know the impact that name would have on the fabric of Australia’s time-honoured race.

MARVELLOUS MAKYBE DIVA
After settling in, Makybe Diva was sent to trainer David Hall. She didn’t make her racetrack debut until July 2002 when she finished fourth in a Benalla maiden. People really started to take notice when she won her next six starts, ending with success in the Werribee Cup and the Queen Elizabeth Stakes during the 2002 Melbourne Cup Carnival. Winning the 2002 Queen Elizabeth Stakes (with Luke Currie aboard) qualified the mare for the 2003 Melbourne Cup, so her trainer was able to spend the next 12 months preparing her. It was then that the legend began. It was also the start of the great relationship between Makybe Diva and her champion jockey, Glen Boss. In the 2003 Cup, he brought the mare through the field with an uninterrupted run. In 2004, when she changed stables and joined the Lee Freedman team after Hall accepted an invitation to train in Hong Kong, Boss showed incredible courage to take the rails run on a damp Flemington track. And in the last of her memorable Cup wins in 2005, he had her perfectly placed throughout, producing her at the top of the straight after the runs presented and racing clear for a historic win. LEGEND STATUS: Glen Boss and Makybe Diva create history achieving the first three-peat in the 2005 Melbourne Cup. (Ryan Pierse/Getty Images) “...a champion becomes a legend!” 3 The jockey has admitted that he can still become emotional when his favourite racehorse is mentioned. The Makybe Diva period of his life not only changed him, but brought so much enjoyment to his family. “She took me to world notoriety by winning three Melbourne Cups, and she clearly gave me the greatest thrills I have experienced on a racetrack. “From the first time I was legged aboard her until I slipped off her for the final time after winning that last Melbourne Cup, she was the ultimate professional that refused to give in,” he said. Boss believes that Makybe Diva’s bravery and determination mixed with her untold talent made for one of the greatest racehorses of her time. Trainer Lee Freedman Go and find the smallest child on this course, because there will be an example of the only person here that will live long enough to see something like that again.

MARVELLOUS MAKYBE DIVA “This was a racehorse not only of immense ability, but a beautiful nature who just wanted to please you,” he recalled. Hours after her third Melbourne Cup, it was announced that Makybe Diva would be retired from racing. She finished with a record of 36 starts for 15 wins, four seconds, three thirds and $14,526,685 in prizemoney. Makybe Diva is arguably the best stayer to have won the Lexus Melbourne Cup. There have been many who would fall into that bracket for discussion including the likes of Phar Lap (1930) and Carbine (1890) but for one horse to find a way to win three Melbourne Cups is something extraordinary. Archer (1861-62), Peter Pan (1932 and 1934), Rain Lover (1968-69) and Think Big (1974-75) are the only other horses to win multiple Melbourne Cups. Afforded the luxury of three consecutive ten-out-of ten rides by Australian Racing Hall of Fame inductee, Glen Boss, Makybe Diva broke all records along the way. She was the only horse to win the Cup three times and the greatest weight carrier for a mare in the history of the race. Eleven individual mares have won the Melbourne Cup dating as far back as Acrasia (1904). Of those eleven, Empire Rose (1988, 53.5kg) was the highest weight carried until Makybe Diva came along. In the second (2004) of her three Cup victories, Makybe Diva would successfully break Empire Rose’s record, carrying 55kg to victory. This would ultimately be broken the following year when she carried 58kg to win in extraordinary circumstances. As legendary racecaller Greg Miles famously said, “a champion becomes a legend!” Unusually, Makybe Diva would win by 1¼ lengths in each of her three Cup victories. Makybe Diva was inducted into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame in 2006 and later elevated to Legend status in 2010. After several years at stud, she has enjoyed a life nurturing the next generation.

MARVELLOUS MAKYBE DIVA
In 2007, following her extraordinary feats of 2003-2005, the VRC Committee renamed the Craiglee Stakes, a weight-for-age event over 1600 metres, in the mare’s honour. The race achieved Group 1 status in 2013. Of her eight foals to race, six have been winners. She retired from motherhood in 2020 and is yet to leave progeny anywhere near the same class as herself but, if history follows form, watch out for progeny from her daughters. Genetics is an inexact science and stellar performers can often skip a generation. In 2020, Makybe Diva was on course parading before the running of the 2020 Lexus Melbourne Cup with her owner Tony Santic and jockey Glen Boss, leading her around the Flemington mounting yard. The only thing missing was her adoring fans as no patrons were permitted on course due to the pandemic. Last year, she was once again on course to greet her legion of fans on Crown Makybe Diva Stakes Day, what would prove to be her final public appearance before her passing. Racegoers at Flemington adored and celebrated her that day, with many stopping for pats, carrots and cherished photos. She died peacefully in February 2026, at the age of 26, following a brief battle with colic. Her final years were spent at Makybe Racing & Breeding in Gnarwarre, just west of Geelong in Victoria, a property founded by her owner, Tony Santic.

Mr B SHOOTING FOR A FOURTH MAKYBE
By Craig Brennan - Racing And Sports
L indsay Park legend Mr Brightside will look to maintain a perfect record in an early season Group 1 race at Flemington. Mr Brightside has run in the Crown Makybe Diva Stakes (1600m), run at Flemington on Saturday, for the past three years, posting wins on each occasion. In his first victory he defeated Alligator Blood before running down Pride Of Jenni in 2024 and last year defeating Aeliana. Behind Mr Brightside in his last two victories has been Via Sistina who would go on to capture the Cox Plate at Moonee Valley the following month both times. In Mr Brightside’s favour in his three victories has been small fields where the now nine-year-old has been able to ride the speed. And last year he crawled up front, running 1:38.75, sprinting home the last 600m in 32.66 seconds. This year’s field is double digits with 13 acceptors, but Mr Brightside has drawn ideally in gate two and with regular rider Craig Williams switching to Sir Delius, Blake Shinn takes the ride. Mr Brightside’s strength has been his longevity with 20 wins from 49 starts and a shade over $19 million in prizemoney. And he has largely been injury free, although a small bone chip in a fetlock kept the gelding from the track earlier in the year. It allowed Mr Brightside a longer than normal spell and a solid build up for his return run. JD Hayes, who trains the gelding in partnership with his brothers Ben and Will, described Mr Brightside as a ‘freak’ after his first-up second to Beiwacht in the Group 1 Memsie Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on August 29. “He’s never let us down,” Hayes said.
MR B ’s BID FOR FOUR
He’s a freak and nothing surprises you when it comes to him.
Co-Trainer JD Hayes
“He was there at the top of the straight, he was vulnerable to the opposition, but he fought like a tiger and held on for second. “The way it was looking he was going to run fourth, or fifth, we felt, but he dug deep and showed he is a true champion, but the winner was too good.” Being his first outing for the year, Hayes said Mr Brightside had taken considerable improvement from his Memsie run. “He’s improved, physically, as you would expect out of it after a long time off,” Hayes said. “He’s tightened up beautifully and the Flemington mile, plus if there was any rain, it would be great.”

MR B ’s BID FOR FOUR
DID YOU KNOW? A fourth Makybe Diva Stakes would put Mr Brightside in rare company among some of racing’s greats who have also claimed victory four times in a single race. Winx famously won four consecutive Cox Plates from 2015 to 2018, as well as four straight George Ryder and Chipping Norton Stakes. Manikato won the Futurity Stakes four times, although not consecutively, and won the William Reid Stakes five years in a row. A fourth Makybe Diva Stakes would give Mr Brightside his own place among that select group – and extend a record that is already his alone.
