The best racing day of the year approaches!

Considering a lack of quality threads have been started I thought what better way then to start another.. :p

If you would like to participate in the sweep simply post your desire and rather than nominating a horse, I'll randomly assign you one. (totally random)

The winner will have bragging rights for 7 days.. or until the next Melbourne cup, whatever..

Be quick!

Thanks Doggies board.. :)

I had Gallic and Maybe Better in other sweeps........ Sucks!

philhawk
6 Nov 2007, 13:08
OK, just got back from the TAB. Put $30 on the following horses,

Tawqueet
Efficient
Zipping
Sirmione

and $50 on Purple Moon.

If Purple Moon wins, I stand to lose roughly $20, if one of the others win, i'm in the money!

My tip for the Trifecta?

Zipping
Efficient
Sirmione

P.S - Obviously, if any other horses win - i'm screwed!

I was thinking Trifecta until Efficient came storming home. 2nd, 3rd & 4th ... ah well, I guess that's why they call it "gambling" :)

I thought there would be more fuss over Master O'Reilys performance! He wasn't even in the top half a dozen! But I made 13 dollars after losing 20 so I'm mildly happy.. lol!
