I'm leaning towards Roman Emporer for the Cup at this point…..am I kidding myself?

No. This year looks like a field that could be very hard to pick. Roman Emporer I think, has a big chance.

Does anyone know much about 'Warringah'? Is it an overseas runner?

By the way.....does anyone know what the parking situation is like at Wenty Park these days??

 

[king_sirro]

Ink, when u looking to go? For the dogs on a saturday night?

There's generally plenty of parking on the surrounding streets near the Glenmore Meats butcher, or u can get a spot just on the hill on St Johns rd which is right in front of the entrance.. But if your looking for day time parking, im pretty sure the whole area has a time limit so u might have a to the risk.

 

[innsaneink]

Yeah this saturday maybe..Danny Greens amking an appearance too…thanks KS....do they have no official carpark there?
A bit of a dodgy area, would prefer paid parking if it seems a bit safer

 

[king_sirro]

Im not sure if they still allow parking in the park, but even if they do, its still easy access to any thieves. But i think you'll be sweet, as long as your not parking a porsche or something. Go easy on the dodgy area if u dont mind, it produced one of the worlds finest…............me :laughing:

The biggest week of the year has arrived!

Good luck tomorrow to everyone making an investment or two.

I like Dandaad in the 2nd at Flemmington. Finished 2nd in the Geelong Cup and looking for Melbourne Cup qualification tomorrow. Clare Lindop rode it well in the Geelong cup, it was unlucky not to win and she is on it again tomorrow.

Love Conquers All in the 4th race. Ran a great race in Sydney on Caulfield Cup day. Currently a 30-1 chance, could be a big hope tomorrow.

Not much idea in the Derby - think I will wait for advice from others on here. Some help please!

My favourite horse at the moment - Stickpin will be running in the last at Flemmington, will have something on that.

Some big fields at Doomben tomorrow! I like Showciti in the 5th race there tomorrow.

Good luck everyone.

Good to see my Shocking getting a win in the lexus and he should look good in the cup i had 250 each way on him on fixed at $21… KIrklees and Efficient both scratched for the cup aswell

 

[king_sirro]

Dont want to be a dog, but have had a great day. Couldnt put my tips on here because i didnt look at the form until today and i was at work, but ended up getting:

Faint Perfume @ $4
Headway@ 15
Scenic Shot@ $6.60
Captain Sonodor@ $11
Dealers backed just for a place @ $4.40
Tellasecret @ $8.80 a place

Havent had a day like this for a long time.

Seriously - good on you. I am just envious!!

 

[Rorko]

had 10 each way on
Shocking 1st
Shellscrape 3rd
Monaco Consul 1st
LAdy Lynette 2nd
Turffontein 3rd

But lost on Newport, Run for Narra and largo lad

Melbourne cup tips
1\. Shocking (as said earlier have $250 E/W on it did t when i saw it at 21 on fxed odds
2\. Newport fantastic run in the Mak Stakes and wll stay under the radar with the Cummings Love fest

As ive typed this they have both got Horrible Barriers and i also dont mind C'est La Guerre as i feel its been held back for the cup

 

[king_sirro]

Good luck with Shocking Rorko, i didnt have a bet in that race yesterday but i thought his run was sensational and im thinking of jumping on it myself.
\

What about that dog Posadas yesterday? Ive backed it its last 2 starts and its done nothing, then comes out and wins at $31…......of course this this time i didnt back it

 

[tigergran]

Hi everyone

I am starting to think I should be outlaying more than my usual $1 e/w - then I would maybe take more care in my picks!!

As for the Melbourne Cup - I back those wearing the black and gold - worked well last year!!

I anxiously await your tips.

Ive backed the last two winners in the MELBOURNE CUP and this year im going with ,Changing of the guard,,

 

[Chadman_s_Ghost]

I've still sen no reason not to get on Roman Emperor, but I must admit I'll probably chuck a couple of sneaky $20's on C'est Le Guerre (Lloyd Williams horses have a good Cup record) & Alcopop.

 

[Rorko]

thanks sirro…i loved his run yesturday but maybe thats the best he will do... I got a chance to see that race, not sure where it pulled that out of but very unlucky not to be on it i guess.... reminds me of last week when missed getting money on The Sportsman and it paided $27.50 after following it for ages

 

[NJLM78]

My tipping has been terrible. So you will want to avoid these horses on Tuesday as they will be carrying me as well as the jockey. Going for some outsiders.

1- Munsef
2- Daffodil
3- Zavite

Good luck everyone. Hope someone on here wins big. You will need it to pay for Tigers membership!
