Victoria Racing Club chairman Neil Wilson today said it was hard to believe it was just over 10 years since Payne's unforgettable win.

"It was a moment that captivated Australia and a decade on, it still is fondly remembered by those lucky enough to have been here at Flemington, and for those cheering around the country," he said.

"Since this incredible achievement, Michelle has become an inspiration to young female jockeys and to every young person who dares to dream."
