Melbourne Cup

[COMPO]

I'm tipping Profound Beauty to beat the fav. What's your selection?.

 

[ScottE]

I recon so you think will be to good.

Ok this year's Melbourne cup is a hard one to pick. Im a bit of a racing buff i'm picking MALUCKDAY it's paying well at $8 for the win.

If you want a good roughie look no further than DESCARADO and AMERCAINA they both have solid chances of winning SO YOU THINK will probably get up but at $3 and still coming in is there any point of betting on it? By tommorow it will be at $2 just watch!

agreed.

however, back shoot out for a place, @ $8 its good value, i know it will come in a little, but its a good stayer.
descarado is in the same vote.

it a fast pace is set, so you think should win, it will last the distance.

I have stuck with Shocking, just think they have been holding him back a little, wet track should suit. Plus I put down $5each way on Zipping, horse always seems to place and is paying a nice price too.

I think that the wet track and distance might bring So You Think back to the field, What an absolute champion horse but just think it might be blowing a little with around 200 to go.

cant see so you think losing. he won by 3 lengths on derby day without getting whipped until the last 80m or so. got $30 on him. and $10 on maluckyday

That's derby day there was hardly any competion! The track is expected to be a Dead 5.

once were wild will hit the front, get collared and shaken off by so you think, who will look the winner untill maluckyday sweeps down the outside and blows them away got 21/1 fixed odds on malucky day before he won on saturday

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

I've got a few bucks on So You Think, put it on on Saturday @ $5.75

DESCARADO!!!!!!!!!!

Boxed Trifecta: Shocking, Descarado, So you think

 

[Wheeldude]

I'm not into horses, but I hope Bart wins his 13th cup! I may hate Federer winning everything but I sure love it when Bart does. Nice to see old people do well

 

[howzat]

So you think, smashed the field in the mackinnon under wet conditions and only really fired in the last few hundred...
The black beauty will come home for the win, but screw win or place bets, I go for boxed trifectas and first fours at % bets

SHOCKING
SO YOU THINK
ZIPPING
DESCARADO
MANIGHAR
PROFOUND BEAUTY
MALUCKYDAY

They are the 7 I will be looking at but may change them at the last minute when I hear the rumblings at the TAB, worked for my trifecta when Efficient stormed home!!!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL

 

[footycard]

I signed up with lux bet, deposit $25 and you get a $100 free bet.

so I did a boxed trifecta, Descarado - Maluckyday - So you think.

and put the $100 free bet on Descarado @ $13.00 so i will get $1300 back plus whatever the trifecta ends up.
if i win.

 

[infestacide]

going to have a little each way on a roughie in the 3rd #6 Sadler's Story. Was only going to include it in my trifecta, but i can't help have a little nibble

 

[hairyangryfella]

I drew Profound Beauty in my work sweeps but I quite like Americain. However I have little knowledge on the matter so my picks don't mean anything...

I also bet on Illustrious Blue and Zavite for places...

 

[footycard]

macedonian won the 3rd race, can imagine the tab in st albans would of been rockin!

 

[kingjack]

Alright my bets are on I have

AMERICAIN $5 each way
MALUCKYDAY $5 each way
SHOCKING $3 each way
SO YOU THINK $3 each way

I drew MALUCKDAY in the $150 sweep at my Dad's work so very happy with that and in the $50 cup at Mum's work I drew SO YOU THINK.

Not a bad sweep for me

 

[footycard]

youd be spewing if you get the trifecta then

---------- Post added 02-11-2010 at 12:56 PM ----------

chucked in another $20 to my account so i'm going Stravinsky Code in the 4th.

at fixed odds of $14 to win & $4.25 to place i bet
$6 win
$14 place

if i win something i'm gonna go for omen place bets instead of looking at the form guide, more fun i think.

 

[dk_kinnell]

i have 4 horses in a trifecta so you think wont last the distance and in the weather very, very good horse but still think the rain will hold it back, im backing:

ZIPPING
SHOOT OUT
MAILUCKYDAY
MANIGHAR

be intresting and rather excited!

So you think runs better in the wet..... That's why it's red hot favourite the track is a Dead 4....If it was a half decent track Shocking or Maluckyday would be favourite.
