Melbourne Cup winner Let's Elope, who started her racing career in New Zealand, has died, aged 29.

Let's Elope, a giant chestnut mare, won both the Caulfield and Melbourne cups in 1991.

The Melbourne Cup win was her fourth-straight victory in a seven-race streak for trainer Bart Cummings before her racing career ended in the United States.

Chris and Kathie Bakker from Lauriston Park in Euroa, Victoria, said Let's Elope died peacefully in her sleep lying underneath a gum tree in her favourite paddock.
