Melbourne Cup
Nov 5th, 2018 at 9:49pm
 
Ok has any got any tips, I know we have at least one horse expert on here.

If you're wondering I always place a few bets once a year on the cup at a barbecue.

But the bottom line is I haven't a clue about the horses and just choose the numbers.

I'm going to finish of the last few episodes of Line of Duty so I will come back tomorrow.

Read the form guide and hang around at the race track especially around the bar/s-  I have picked up a good tip or two that way- at least one winner-be a barfly  Grin

Heavy rain intermittently in Melbourne today, so pick a mud runner.

The Conquistadors tip: Yucatan (Lloyd Williams). Although that is the favourite so will put the moz on it.

LOL I did that the one and only time I went to the dogs, first race 1:100 came in but I didn't have a bet we were too late.

Other 8 races there was always a dog at big odds always put $5 on it but nothing.

Just went and got the paper will study soon.

It's raining cats and dogs here at the moment ... could be minor flooding about the place, but I don't know which horses are the best in very wet conditions.

One thing for sure, it will be a miserable day at the races today.  Sad
