Breaking: Melbourne Cup winner Half Yours suffers nasty fall in Caulfield Cup

Last year's Melbourne Cup winner, Half Yours, has gone down in a nasty fall late in the Caulfield Cup, which was won by Gavin Bedggood's Kingswood.

With about 200 metres to go in the 2,400m race, Half Yours was in the middle of the pack when there appeared to be contact with Kings Valley.

Half Yours went down hard, sending jockey Mark Zahra into the turf, with New Zealand's Ohope Wins also coming down after Jye McNeil was unable to avoid the fallen McEvoy Racing product.

Half Yours returned to his stall after the race and was "all OK", according to Racing.com, while stewards said Zahra and McNeil were both "conscious and alert" and transported to hospital for further assessment.

The condition of Ohope Wins, the New Zealand mare that won the Oaks at Randwick in April, was still not known.

Trainer Tony McEvoy said after the race that Half Yours had suffered some abrasions but looked OK, all things considered.

"That was terrible to watch," McEvoy said.

"The horse, he's got a couple of lacerations, he seems bright, he seems composed in himself.

"He's got a laceration under his arm, he's got a laceration on a hind leg. They look superficial."

The final race of the day at Caulfield was delayed.
