Would have really liked Spanish Mission if it could have had one start in Oz ....before the Cup .....Verry Elegant gets 5 kg's on the 2 Top liners ....

Incentivise ...will it get the distance ??

Probably the Top 3 ....field lacks the depth because of Covid and less than normal over seas nags

Delphi is my smoky ...reckon it could be one of these horses that struggles with Caulfield and will like Flemington

First 4 to bank on

Wow! Nice work Happy. The horse whisperer.

Nostradamus meets Monty Roberts.
Great selections @happy_tiger - hope you scored a motza.
 
I backed Very Elegant but literally from the moment I did, I regretted not putting anything on Spanish Mission. Turned out good. Pays to listen to the old man
 
I backed Verry Elegant as well, I have a kiwi mate who knows the owners and they said months back the are heading to win the cup , Chris Waller is also a very good trainer , we have been punting on her for a while now and come out well on top , she is a great mare , if she was mine i would retire her to have a baby or 2. , , hope all punted well today and got some pocket money back

Did you follow my trifecta

How much did you put on it?

Not a cent ....and no I'm not searching for sympathy ....but I woke up this morning double checked my roster ...and then realized it was the 2nd Annisversary of my brothers passing ...and the thought I'd almost forgotten about it knocked the stuffing out of me for the day ...and throw in a clown festival all night at work ......

What's happening for this year's Melbourne Cup.
Has anyone got a tip or going to the track?
I usually back the Clerk Of The Course Horse....it never wins but at least it finishes. 🤔
It's the only bet I have every year where I donate $20 to the TAB.
I hardly win except when Rogan Josh won.
It was a Darwin horse and I was in Darwin at the time.... happy days 🥳

I’ll be on course CC. Going to Derby as well on Saturday.
Will send you a tip when final field declared after Saturdays races.
At this stage I like Montefelia after it’s super run in the Caulfield Cup.

Cool. I like the numbers 2-4-7-9 so if any of them have a chance let me know Browny 😉
 
Weather forecast for the Cup is 13 max and thunderstorms.
Gotta love Bleak City spring weather.
Brrrrrr.
Always had a feeling I went in the wrong direction when I left Sydney.
 
My horse called Hensworth (sire New Approach) had 2 starts in England a 3rd and a 2nd it is in pre training
Anabelle Neasham trains it, it is called Mr Hemsworth out here in Australia.
She says it goes OK, had done some private gallops against Zaaki and held its own
likely to run late december

All good chances but just remember current numerical list is order of entry( 34 horses). Will be cut to final 24 starters after the last race on Saturday and numbers will change.
Better remember the names.
