Without A Fight completes Cup double in Melbourne
Favourite Vauban beaten in Flemington highlight.
Without A Fight stormed home to complete a big-race double in the Lexus Melbourne Cup at Flemington.
The Anthony and Sam Freedman-trained runner won the Caulfield Cup on his previous run and followed up in style under Mark Zahra in the two-mile Group One.
Previously trained by Simon and Ed Crisford, Without A Fight finished 13th in the Melbourne Cup last year, but 12 months on, he was a clear-cut victor.
