    Chucked 100 each way on Lights of Heaven. My Uncle's massive on the horses and reckons it's a good shout.

    I'm not real fussed who wins, I think Dunaden will be hard to beat though.

    Also a horse I had $50 on its nose two weeks ago and it got up is running tomorrow at flemington race 6, horse 7 MEDUSA'S Miss. Paying good odds this time round, I think she's out to $9. If she gets a good start (and hopefully she will with pumper on her) She'll cruise it in.

    If you want a good roughie have a look at Kelinni, Weighted perfect and won a very solid 2500m race. Drawn a good gate as well (barrier 10) means she can sit middle of the pack and stay off the rail.

    Galileo's choice is also another solid horse. Will love the distance and was a previous hurdler.Weight is no issue having won 2 lead in races weighted at 61 kilos. 53kgs this run will suit, everything points to a solid run for this horse.

    On Jakkalberry amongst others. it's out at 81 now and if it's wet tomorrow it's every chance. Don't think Dunaden or Americain will thrive in the wet either.

    Americain loves a dead track, won the melbourne cup 2010 on a dead track. ;) Also ran a game 3rd in the caulfield after losing 2 shoes on the back straight. Loves this track and loves this distance. Only problem is weight its carrying. 3.5kgs heavier than 2010.

    Dunaden loves all tracks, but carrying 59kg wont do it any favours on anything less than a firm. After its caulfield run I'm still on him though.

    Yeah agreed with everything billy has posted. If I was betting on either of the two I would go Americain honestly. Just a bit less weight and hit the line at its fastest after a tough run at caulfield.

    I normally bet on a few things at good odds in the cup though.

    Yeah bro top horse aye. Gotta love melbourne cup, anything can happen and odds are always massive. Trifectas are always big. I only usually multi up, first 4, tri etc.

    Hope Americain and Dunaden don't place exotics will be so high

    Fuck, wish I'd signed up for Sportsbet already. Paying out on 4 placings and they had Dunaden at $10 to win yesterday.

    Sportsbet is giving me a free bet up to $25 to match any bet I make. Thinking of chucking on $25 on Dunaden to win then use the $25 on Galilieo's Choice.

    Or do you guys think I'm better off doing something else?
