Early life

Career as a jockey

He was a former champion apprentice in Melbourne before he moved to Hong Kong in 2002. His competition with Douglas Whyte for the 2009–10 Hong Kong Jockeys' Championship was one of the closest in Hong Kong racing history, with Whyte winning 100–99. His winning tally of 78 in the 2010–11 season brings his overall total in Hong Kong to 525.[1] On 6 November 2012 Brett Prebble won Australia's most famous race, the Melbourne Cup, on the horse Green Moon, trained by Robert Hickmott. In the 2012 Melbourne Cup, Prebble was selected to ride Green Moon, owned by Lloyd Williams and trained by Robert Hickmott.[2] He replaced Damien Oliver, who was dropped from the ride after being accused of betting illegally.[3] Green Moon went on to win the race by one length.[4]
