The King’s former horse Point Of Law won the Lexus Melbourne Gold Cup as Ciaron Maher trained the first three home.Having claimed the Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket in July for John and Thady Gosden in the colours of the King and Queen, Point Of Law was bought privately by Wathnan Racing.In winning the Geelong Cup on his first start for Maher, he was immediately promoted to favouritism and came in at 11/2 with Ethan Brown on board.Point Of Law was made to work for victory by Royal Supremacy, who at one stage led by 15 lengths before fading in the final furlong.Maher trained the first three home, with 22/1 shot Zahrann second and Juja Kibo third.Maher said: “It’s been a whirlwind really.“I’m very proud of all the team – to get three horses in the first three spots.”Sons And Lovers was the first of Joseph O’Brien’s five-strong contingent to finish, coming home in fourth place.Brown said: “I just tried to stay cool and stay patient, cut the bend and once he got that clear run in, his turn of foot was enormous.“He’s going to be a superstar horse, he’s something special.”
