Good Luck to all you Punters out there
Good Afternoon Everyone

Well it is that time of the year again for the



I would like to wish the people that have bets on good luck I hope your horse wins
I am hopeless at picking the winner or even a place as my horses are still coming home from last year
To all the people at cup parties I hope you are all having a great time
My wish is to go down and see the Melbourne Cup one year


Kind Regards
Monty

and good to see QS has joined into the spirit of things, but they could have given everyone a hint by putting a number on their horse LOL

Hi Monty, well I dont bother with the Melbourne Cup, dont even have a horse in it, so will not win or lose!
At least our horses are running in the same direction, so thats something.
I heard on the radio that over $2 million is bet on the Cup, thats a lot of money!
Good luck to the punters.

Hello
No I do not have a bet on any of the horses and I even missed out on the local sweep our corner shop has every year

It was good to see admin put that up there this year I do not remember seeing it there last year if they did

Marian yes they are running the same way

I generally miss it working.  But I've got a sure fire tip on who's  going to win.  A horse with a jockey on its back.  LOL

Hope some of you's had a win.

Hello Vicki

Ahha I was right a horse and jockey won it. LOL
The only way I could win is by placing a bet on the full field
Kind Regards

I should've put a punter on the horse that came last!
At least one of us would've been in front! 

Ah well, i only lost a whole 2 dollars!
That would've been my crumbs for the week! :(
If i start saving 5 cents a week, i'll have enough for my punt next year!!...lol

WOW!..And i'll even have enough over (Out Of That) to pay $0.60 for the GST
