Melbourne Cup

[twoleftfeet]

My son is out in Perth and wants a tip for the Melbourne Cup.

I’m relying on WHO tipsters.

Is one smooth operator a good shout?

The quinella paid $806, the exacta was $2,324 while the trifecta was worth a whopping $30,604.70. The first four paid $870,448.60 !!!!

And i won................FUCK ALL 

[Sydney_Iron]

Bit of an upset, expect the bookies will be dancing like there is no tomorrow though! Big payday for them....


FIRST:  Knight’s Choice 80/1 (26/1 to place)  SECOND: . Warp Speed 26/1 (7/1 to place) THIRD: . Okita Soushi 19/1 (6/1 to place)

Trifecta and Quinella odds are going to be huge!!!

Knights Choice at something like 60/1 ahead of Warp Speed

cսnt stream packed in just before the race started, as I've said before they're the work of the fucking devil.

Who won?

[Pshyco scored all 4]

If an  English horse wins . The Aussies will be livid . Especially only 3 days after the poms winning the $10 million golden slipper. Lake forest was the horse trained by Willie haggis and ridden by cieren Fallon .

It’s the race that used to stop a nation these days, very much second fiddle to what’s going on US election wise, Aussies seem fascinated with that

As to tips for the Cup, fucks knows but would have a dollar or 2 on Circle of fire! Jinxed now though

For a lot of us, it's just day off, or a work day with extra pay. Not everyone cares about the race.

Climb into some Crown lager would be my tip

[Takashi Miike]

back the two Willie Mullins horses, they both have good draws

It’s like getting blood from a stone with you lot, don’t worry your pretty heads go back to your Lopetegui out posts

I was only messing.

A fraser said, it's a lottery.  So get him to go with a name or colour he likes.

I just hope he gets his brains from his mum and doesn't stab himself in the hand with the pin..

[Lee Trundle]

My tip to him would be to ask someone who knows something about horse racing to begin with.

[fraser]

The race that stops a nation (apparently).

Public Holiday in Melbourne

It's like saying my son is in Cairo and wants to put a bet on the Derby, it's roughly the same distance 

[Far Cough UKunt]

Is Scobie Breasley still around? Put the bet on him.

[Manuel]

The race that stops a nation (apparently).

[twoleftfeet]

The relevance is that he has been there 3 weeks, he knows nothing about horse racing and his cricket club are having a Melbourne cup BBQ.

I appreciate your feedback though

[fraser]

Your son is in Perth (can't see the relevance) and wants to back a horse in the Melbourne Cup and you're asking on here? 

It's like the grand national a lottery, tell him to stick a pin in the starting list.
