Melbourne Cup Day
The Melbourne Cup carnival is one of the biggest sporting events in Australia. Tomorrow the nation will again pause for the running of the worlds most famous 3200m horse race. It's a great time of year to be in Melbourne and Cup day is all about catching up with friends for a BBQ and to hopefully finding a winner or two. The Flemington track can expect 110,00 plus patrons, in what is a great party atmosphere. If you've never been to a Melbourne Cup do yourself a favour and get to one!
Interesting to note that those of us at work today are in the minority, with most Melburnians opting to take the Monday off and enjoy a 4 day weekend. We're here keeping things ticking over. Whatever you're up to have fun and enjoy your cup day.
For what it's worth here are our Melbourne Cup selections:
David - 18 Profound Beauty
Mark - 8 Mad Rush
Darren - 5 Nom Du Jeu (with chances to Master O'Reilly and C'est La Guerre)
Happy punting!
Darren
