TRAVIS HARRISON CUP TODAY, THE MOONEE VALLEY RACING CLUB HONOURS THE ENDURING MEMORY OF TRAVIS HARRISON AS WE HOST THE ANNUAL TRAVIS HARRISON CUP. A promising young apprentice jockey, Travis's radiant future was tragically cut short at the tender age of 18 in 1996 due to a heartbreaking car accident. Hailing from a distinguished racing lineage, Travis swiftly emerged as a talented jockey, amassing an impressive record of 88 victories. Among his remarkable achievements was the triumphant ride aboard Suma Peace in 1996 at The Valley, securing a resounding victory in the Group 2 Diamond Jubilee Stakes, now recognised as the Sunline Stakes. Today's Cup stands as a poignant tribute to the indelible mark Travis Harrison left on racing.
