Bec Judd share $3 million-plus in prize money from Point Of Law’s Lexus Melbourne Cup win, after the three-year-old colt claimed victory at Flemington with jockey Ethan Brown aboard. Bec and her husband, former AFL star Chris Judd, are part of the horse’s ownership group.

The win brought a substantial payout for the owners. Point Of Law earned $4.5 million in prize money, and more than $3 million goes to the ownership group.

It was the colt’s second race on Australian soil. The Judds were among the group celebrating after Point Of Law crossed the line first.

How much did Point Of Law win?

Point Of Law collected $4.5 million in prize money for winning the Lexus Melbourne Cup. The trainer’s share is $450,000, while more than $3 million goes to the ownership group.

That gives Bec and Chris Judd a share of the owners’ prize money, though the exact amount each member receives was not stated. The payout is split among the ownership group rather than awarded to one owner alone.

For the Judds, the result turned a day at the races into a personal stake in one of the meeting’s biggest outcomes. Bec celebrated by posing with the famous golden trophy and sharing the moment on Instagram.

“Ummmm….. this wasn’t on my bingo card but I’ll take it,” Bec wrote in the caption accompanying her trophy photo. She also congratulated the horse’s connections and joked about returning next year.

She later shared a picture with Chris and what appeared to be other members of the ownership group. Bec said she “couldn’t stop giggling” after watching the colt win.

“How fun is fun,” she wrote over the image.

The win also rewarded the stable of trainer Ciaron Maher, where Point Of Law is based. The colt’s performance came in only its second race in Australia, with Brown riding to victory.

The prize-money breakdown puts the owners’ return above $3 million and the trainer’s share at $450,000 from the total $4.5 million. Bec Judd and Chris Judd are among those who will share the owners’ portion.
