Melbourne Cup Preview
October 31st 2006 07:12
Although Australia as a whole has a big racing scene, the home of racing really is Melbourne and of course, the biggest race on the Spring racing calendar is the Melbourne Cup. We are only a week away from the cup and (some) girls are finalising their dresses and blokes their suits.
Odds are also being scruitinized and below are the odds for the main race of the day according to SportsBet.com.au. I've cut the no hopes out of the list to keep it a bit shorter and the odds are for a win.
My personal pick is Zipping, although I know nothing of its form, but I am using the Charles Bakowski method of choosing a horse whose odds aren't so short. Anyway, I haven't bet in the past very often, but I might have a flutter this year.
