Time to start posting our selections.
For the winner I think we are down to the following:
CONSTANTINOPLE (IRE)
FINCHE (GB)
MUSTAJEER (GB)
VOW AND DECLARE
SURPRISE BABY (NZ)
MASTER OF REALITY (IRE)
RAYMOND TUSK (IRE)
DOWNDRAFT (IRE)
PRINCE OF ARRAN (GB)
MER DE GLACE (JPN)
I'm also going to throw in CROSS COUNTER because its being tipped everywhere but I don't expect it to win. That leaves us 11 selections.
In order of preference for me (ratings at the start with 0.0 being best):
0.0 MER DE GLACE (JPN)
0.5 PRINCE OF ARRAN (GB)
1.0 DOWNDRAFT (IRE)
1.5 MASTER OF REALITY (IRE)
2.0 CONSTANTINOPLE (IRE)
2.5 RAYMOND TUSK (IRE)
2.5 SURPRISE BABY (NZ)
2.5 FINCHE (GB)
2.5 MUSTAJEER (GB)
3.0 VOW AND DECLARE
9.9 CROSS COUNTER
My strategy for the Melbourne cup will be to lay those identified at the bottom of the list from WalkerMac's and will include:
IL PARADISO (USA)
ROSTROPOVICH (IRE)
NEUFBOSC (FR)
SOUND (GER)
to tell the truth most of my money comes from other races on Tuesday so this race won't have a big impact on profits.
Whats your tips? Do you disagree with mine? Put up your tips for bragging rights on Tuesday afternoon.
