Right You Are was the only horse that failed to finish this year's Melbourne Cup.
The seven-year-old galloper from the Ciaron Maher and David Eustace stable was pulled up 200m short of the finishing post by jockey John Allen.
Right You Are was joined at the back of the pack by Magical Lagoon with the five-year old crossing the finishing line last out of the completed runners.
The likes of Alenquer and Kalapour also struggled over the 3,200m distance to finish way off the pace of the front-runners.
Meanwhile, Without A Fight claimed all the plaudits in front of a packed crowd at Flemington with Mark Zahra backing up his win at last year's Melbourne Cup on Gold Trip with another triumph.

Who finished last in the Melbourne Cup?
Right You Are finished last in this year's Melbourne Cup after failing to cross the line.
"We settled in a nice spot, but we were struggling from a long way out and I pulled him up because he lost his action turning into the straight," Allen explained post-race.
"I felt he may have just choked down. He was struggling to breathe but I jumped off him and once he got his breath back, he walked off okay."
Magical Lagoon was the last past the post of the 22 completed runners.
"Maybe it was just a bit too aggressive and probably too far," jockey Mark Du Plessis said.
Who won the Melbourne Cup?
Without A Fight won this year's $8 million Melbourne Cup, finishing ahead of Soulcombe and Sheraz.
The winner paid $7.50 with Dabble.
