Mack puts money where Mouth is to snap up Melbourne Cup hope
From: Mack puts money where Mouth is to snap up Melbourne Cup hope
By: David Milnes
EXCERPT: “US owner Earle Mack has leased the classy ex-Italian performer Dylan Mouth for a forthcoming Australian campaign which is hoped will culminate in a crack at the Melbourne Cup in November.
Marco Botti will continue to train the six-year-old, who registered his biggest domestic success when landing the Old Newton Cup at odds of 25-1 at Haydock last time.
The six-year-old, who is the winner of 13 of his 25 races and nearly £900,000 in prize money, would be Botti’s fourth runner in ‘the race that stops a nation’ having previously fared best when Jakkalberry finished third in 2012.”

By: Earle I. Mack

Earle Mack Takes On Challenge Of The Melbourne Cup In Australia
EXCERPT
From: An American in Melbourne
By: Bill Finley
Date: November 2, 2008
EXCERPT: “The Melbourne Cup isn’t on the radar of most American owners, which is probably a mistake. The purse is about $3.6 million, it’s as prestigious as any race in the world, it attracts crowds in excess of 100,000 and any top-class American horse with the staying power to excel at two miles is bound to have a solid chance. It’s a challenge worth tackling, which hasn’t escaped one American owner.
Earle Mack, who is the senior partner and CFO of a New Jersey-based commercial real estate development firm and has campaigned numerous stakes winners, is quietly confident that his stable is about to land its biggest prize yet. Mack owns Mad Rush, the second choice in early betting for Tuesday’s Melbourne Cup at Flemington Racecourse. Mad Rush, who was bred in Kentucky by Avalon Farm, would not be the first American-bred to win the Melbourne Cup, but Australian racing officials have told Mack that he would be the first American owner to win the race…”
