Absolute MUST be close to the rails in the straight

 

[Hawksboy72]

Glorified hurdler fails again in the Melbourne Cup.

On SM-S918B using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[Hamingja]

I took $30 worth of mystery tris with Warp Speed anchored with two mysteries but didn't get the winner in any of them

Only way you could get that tri!

 

[juice t]

I haven’t had a successful Cup place for 4 years
And that will probably continue with Okita Soushi

And of course I got on when it was $3.80 the place

 

[qarocks]

choke job by all the favs/best horses in the race, very disappointing but the MC is often a raffle so what can you do

 

[Lunchtime]

Knight's Choice, the Australian Bred

9th - Underwood Stakes
16th - Turnbull Stakes
14th - Caulfield Cup
5th - Bendigo Cup

That was its lead up form....but it's now a Melbourne Cup winner.

 

[qarocks]

the "what the jockeys said" will be pretty interesting.

 

[balmainforever]

Imaging being on Sea King.
You were gone after 5 seconds

not even bill benter would have picked it this year, i really wish i knew how to break down the race to work out why all the best horses failed so badly

Can’t believe Lachie Neale rode the Melbourne cup winner

Can’t win a Norm Smith but can ride a Cup winner

 

[Aussie Assault]

choke job by all the favs/best horses in the race, very disappointing but the MC is often a raffle so what can you do

Track has certainly played its part in that result when most of the faves have gone back in running. Percentages are to come around them as most of them did, but first and second have ridden for luck.. and got it.

 

[year of the cat]

Of course Soushi hits a brick wall at the end…..

Moriera via the car park, most overrated jockey going around

Brave run by OS. Hit the front far too early. Not much Jamie could do with the leaders compounding.

 

[The GOAT]

Fair play to the winner, ran on from way out the back

 

[PP34]

Let’s stop pretending the Cup is a good race

What a farce

 

[FFB1]

Well at least the social media hogs Wolfden stripped out again

 

[2121]

Absurde Was a very good run, got squeezed by that nz donkey and then had to check off heels probably cost it being right in the finish.

 

[d-mac3276]

Cannot understate how good that ride was….one of the best rides I’ve seen to win a big race

 

[Jamz]

I just thought Zardozi had them at the 200, absolute dream run into the race

 

[mcs095]

You ****ing cat lol.

That is all.

 

[taurus]

A retired priest told me about Okita 20 minutes before the race. Divine intervention indeed!

 

[Pablito]

I just thought Zardozi had them at the 200, absolute dream run into the race

Hit a bigger wall than Soushi.

 

[Coasters7]

Knight's Choice, the Australian Bred

9th - Underwood Stakes
16th - Turnbull Stakes
14th - Caulfield Cup
5th - Bendigo Cup

Always the way. Just pick your favourite name or number and be done with it. Any sort of analysis is more often than not a waste of time

Good because the seas parted for the first 2, otherwise Sushi should be taking it home.
