After his terrific run in the Caulfield Cup and with the distance not an issue, I reckon the best value is Who Shot Thebarman. Currently $17 and Fame Game is at $4-they both had very similar runs in the Caulfield Cup so I'm taking the longer odds . Barrier Draw this arvo.

If the track plays anything like derby day whichever jockey gets to the rail will be on the winner.

Heard the track dude this morning on the radio (he has an official title). He explained the way the water runs off the track and why it plays the way it does. He said to expect a firmer track tomorrow

Has he failed on heavy tracks? I thought he was just unproven in the wet.

Re: Melbourne Cup thread
It won't be heavy anyway but it's the fact he gets back and will be wide on the straight. It was like quicksand out there Saturday. Have a look at his run in the Tenno Sho he absolutely deserves to be favourite.SI wrote:

Awesome run, similar to the Caulfield Cup where he got into trouble and had to duck out.

If Purton followed Trip to Paris through, he would have won the Caulfield Cup

Re: Melbourne Cup thread
Melbourne Cup day seems very similar to the Jarryd Hayne journey.
People don't actually know what the hell they are talking about. But will repeat what they read or heard and pass it off as their thoughts.
And then when it's over no one will care again.

I think the issue is that you are the only poster on any forum in the history of forever that knows anything about any sport; which is why you carry you so much respect.Big Diesel wrote:Melbourne Cup day seems very similar to the Jarryd Hayne journey.
