Trained by Ciaron Maher
Royal Supremacy is one of Ciaron Maher's seven runners in the 2026 Melbourne Cup, carrying 56kg with Ben Allen in the saddle.
The barrier draw was unkind β gate 21 sits outside the line every Cup winner has jumped from since 2015, so he'll need an historic performance from there.
