The probability of selecting $k$ edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in the complete graph

Let $H_1,\dots,H_k$ be Hamilton cycles in $K_n$, chosen independently and uniformly at random. We show, for $k = o(n^{1/100})$, that the probability of $H_1,\dots,H_k$ being edge-disjoint is $(1+o(1))e^{-2\binom{k}{2}}$. This extends a corresponding estimate obtained by Robbins in the case $k=2$.
