More importantly, any mail on who's looking good in the Melbourne Cup?

Usual story mate, anyone can win it. Incentivise is the favourite having won 9 in a row but anything can happen in the rough and tumble of the Cup. I like to look at the horses that give you value and like to box quinellas. Here are my chances:

Incentivise
Persan
Floating Artist
Explosive Jack
Verry Elleegant
Tralee Rose

Box all those in a quinella costs $15. Would be a good one if Incentivise doesn't feature. But you have him in as insurance.

jack ahearn made 5 missed 5
nene made 7 missed 2
gagan made 11 missed 2
gregorious made 14 missed 5
ruben made 2 missed 1

ahearn tackle efficiency 45.5%
nene 77.8%
gagan 78.6%
gregorious 70%
ruben 50%

this is getting worse for you, but anyway, nene was a weapon and the rest of his backline were well below him

Dipshit plays on the last tackle to give the other team another set on their line with 3 minutes to go:

- Nene: 1
- Everyone else: 0

Ran in from his wing in the last 5 minutes, took nobody, and luckily had his teammates save his ass

- Nene: 2
- Everyone else: 0

I’ll take the other blokes thanks.

I'm putting that on... couldn't take it if it came through and I wasn't on

Do you have any stats to support this mate?

Someone threw a million on the nose of 101-1, Ocean Billy, I think. Wonder how many ocean billies the punter had had.

 

[Sir Chadley]

Got the quinella and made all of $3.

 

[HaroldBishop]

Haha. Better than a loss though.

I'm surprised that you backed a horse with the spelling Verry Elleegant

 

[Sir Chadley]

I'm surprised that you backed a horse with the spelling Verry Elleegant

I only included it at the last minute when my wife told me she had backed it. She is so tinny, doesn't win every year but does most years.

And by the way, she knows nothing about horses.

Niukore set to sign with the warriors for 2023.

Lucky you're not hung like one mate.

You wouldn't be saying that if he was married to Catherine the Great

I definitely won more before I understood how to read the form guide

Should have asked your wife...

Put on 6 horse boxed first 4 ($180 ) for half dividend
Paid 4.74 K full dividend
Pretty happy with that
Backed Veerry Elleegant too.
Been following her since she beat my horse (4th ) in the Australian Oaks as a 3 year old

Sunny side up!

 

[egg]

Yeah mate .
Sunnyside up today !

 

[BurgoShark]

Not surprising. He was already with their feeder team - similar to how Levi got into the squad.

Add Ezra Mam, Josh James and Cory Paix to that list. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Jack Campagnolo thrown a dev deal.

Picked it

Not Broncos though. Train and Trial with Bunnies.

 

[Thresher]

Yeah mate .

Well done on pick l ing the winner
