Going down to the TAB soon

It's been raining here, so I think I'll be having a quite day.

What'd you fancy Stevo? Heard VIC had 50mm of rain since Saturday?
The TAB's here opened at 7am are jammed packed already, Ascot racecourse will be packed too. I'll head down to my local after 5 and swim through the sea of losing tickets

blackmsport · 2 November 2010, 12:14 PM

nothing but rain rain here.....aggrrrrrr

Lol-x · 2 November 2010, 12:23 PM

I will be going for Maluckyday each way.
As a long shot Campanologist (place).
Seems like So You Think is the red hot favorite.

Well best of luck to those punting...

My last bet on the Melb. cup about 17 years ago brought home $1700...Boy was that a good day after!

renfield33 · 2 November 2010, 12:34 PM

is this some kind of horse race?

Lol-x · 2 November 2010, 12:36 PM

Yes it is, it is one of the most famous Horse Races in the world.
It's on in about 1.5 hours, quite an occasion in this city and it is always on the first Tuesday in November.

Part of the culture, it's even a public holiday here due to the occasion.

I like the top weight and bottom weight. So You Think is at not bad odds considering it's win last Saturday only paid $1.60 and it nuked the opposition.
Lots of factors for this favourite....weather, extra distance, more horses.... wait and see.
