The first ever female jockey to win the Melbourne Cup, she made “the race that stops a nation” a race that inspired one. Her graciousness in the face of untold triumph and tragedy is now a beacon for many people.
Michelle will be written into our history books as that rare kind of icon, one who lives with gratitude and humility.
