Melbourne Cup

[Dutchy]

will be working my multis around -

2,4,5,10,18

Forget the Northern Hemisphere horses, New Zealand horses always go well this time of year and usually get ignored

Cest La Guerre will be my main bet to win with medium goes at Master Orielly, Nom Du Jeu and I am already on Viewed from a week back

good luck all

Cant fit in Prize Lady tho?

[Dutchy]

Nah never won on a good track, reckon it doesnt have the class to win, will go better if track downgraded but I reckon it will still be good by race time

Mad Rush would head my books in the betting but I dont like fav's in big races so I'm looking for something that might sit back off the pace that the European horses have promised. The big staying events in Europe usually get run at a better clip through the first 1200 or so and they end up dropping over the line where as here in Oz after the first 600 we settle into a pace until the last 800 or so. Having said that if the imports decide to belt along not many of ours will have the speed early yet if the Australian trainers/jockeys dictate terms the imports just wont have the toe to go with us at the end. I expect this race to be a stop start affair and see something with just staying power and patience win it.

I like Gallopin and Red Lord should not be 100/1.

[Bum Crack]

Moatize is the go I reckon. Stormed home last week and still had a bit left in it as well. Never underestimate Mr Cummings.

i was watching the late edition of sports tonight here in the eastern states. they had rob munsie from sportsbet do his usual 2 minute updates on bets for the cup. he said they took over 2 million dollars in bets yesterday for PRIZE LADY alone bringing it in from 126/1 to 70/1

Here we go! BOUNDLESS to win. Barack Obama's granny just died, she was 85, 8 + 5 = 13, No. 13 is BOUNDLESS, BOUNDLESS has 9 LETTERS!

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Just an early warning.

How The Betting Forum Works
As a moderator, should you offer something as a sure thing and it goes down by a half head, breaks down, or just fails miserably. and i've put the rent money on, expect to feel my wrath! Some simple rules to follow though....
1. We are not interested in what you- did back/would've backed/or were told to back, and forgot to tell us. We cannot travel back through time to get bets on, so all tips/what we've backed must be stated prior to the event.

[Swooper16]

Box tri'd 1,5,8,23

and also taken Septimus for the win

I put $1 on #20 @ fixed odds of $121 because #20 hasn't won since the 1890's!!
It has to salute eventually!!

[Groover]

I like #12 Bauer
ahead of #1 Septimus and #3 Honolulu

they look the standouts for me
Some place chances i will consider in exotics are:
#2 Master O Reilly
#7 Zipping
#8 Mad Rush
#9 Ice Chariot
and #11 Littorio
