    God i love the Spring Carnival. It just goes on and on.

    And it's Cup week. TAB take goes through the roof as people have their only best for the year.

    Your social media feed will also suddenly have the "nup to the cup" people who seem to think that Horse Racing is a one-day-a-year thing. Because in general they are fucking idiots.

    Should be a national fucking holiday. I'll be taking the day off to get on the piss anyway. I can bet on no less than 15 tracks in Australia, and 2 in NZ. Boom.

    It is a Public holiday in Melbourne, isn't it?

    yeah it is. a day off work, something new and different for them...

    Just out of curiosity have you tried betting on 17 venues at the same time? 🙂 I do my head in at about 4-5 lol

    one Melbourne Cup day a few years back a mate of mine and I got a copy of Best Bets, and we bet on every race that showed on Sky 1. You have to fucking go for it. And we trimmed time by basically just taking the BB best tip on each. We were barely even watching them at one point. I don't think i have ever got so many winners in a day.

    I have had saturdays where a group of us get in to it, and you bet every single metro, plus a couple of country meets. And it gets fucking hectic. You can very quickly burn through your account too.

    I am trying very hard to stick to Sydney and Melbourne, with the occassional race in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. And what ever the FNQ meet is...

    It can only be done if you put as little thought in to it as i do

    Probably because today is the most tedious day all year for absolute wounders who never bet all year randomly sliding into your DMs, asking for a tip in a 24-horse race (now 23, mind you) and then abuse you when your suggested selection runs a brave 4th after getting stuck 3-wide the trip, causing said wounder to lose their $5.

    And then it happens all over again the following year.

    The Cup is open as fuck. The rest of the races are pretty ordinary. Melbourne Cup day is a chance to get bent on a Tuesday.

    Cant complain about that. Any horse paying under $20 or so is good value in those office sweepstakes. If you get drawn a roughie (so above $20) make sure ya have a gold coin or two on it at the TAB too at its real odds just in case it wins and then you will get paid what ya deserve.

    No. Don’t think there’s too many places for a counter bet in the city these days. Must affect the take not getting the one day a year bets

    Can’t believe I had to search to find this thread... sad

    Friends horse running tonight, trainer thinks it will go ok, owner reasonably confident, but running in the City doesn’t always go well and some good competition . Does have Berry on board though who could probably ride a rocking horse to victory on recent form.

    Anyhoo Ranges, race 6 Canterbury, currently at $7/$2

    Nice!

    We have Solomon running in Race 5 Cromwell today. Can win. Can also come last. Bet with care. Should lead or be one off the lead.
