Caulfield Cup

[Surkin]

looking at bom it seems the worst of the rain is coming today..

there will be showers tomorrow, but more scattered and not as frequent. heavy wind though..

hopefully that turns a few away from going providing easier access to the bar

If melb gets the rain wagga is getting at the moment wouldn't be surprised if the meeting didn't go ahead fingers crossed though.

Hate to be a killjoy but I'm guessing she'll be called off.

Weather on the Vic/NSW border right now is horrendous..

Will be chucking a few more dollars on Faint Perfume tonight just in case though.

Won't be called off.

Too much money invested. Biggest day of the year there.

Track will be effed, but they'll run it with snorkels if need be.

SERIOUSLY?

Have you ever seen a live weather radar around Melbourne?

OUR WEATHER COMES FROM THE WEST!!
(well the majority of it does).

And last time I checked, there's no NSW/VIC border to the West.

Worst of it has now passed, I use BOM all the time for all sports in Melbourne, and it is very accurate.

yeh looking at the way the cycle is running the weather will be coming from the northwest vic/sa border (mildura-way) and from adelaide tomorrow..it will rain and may dampen the atmosphere but i extremley doubt its gets called off.

hopefully by 6.00pm tonight the rain clears for a few hours until the next smaller front hits tomorow,

Adelaide has copped some prettyw il weather if thast helps anyone - melbourne normally cops our weather around 24 hours laters.

its windy today, and raining, but not a downpour.

My tips:
1. Faint perfume
2. Alcopop
3. Shocking
4. Manighar.

Good luck to all punters adn those braving the weather on track!

[charcoalchicken]

Was going to go but I doubt that now shit weather.

 

[mattys123]

Racing Victoria apparently saying now there is "no chance of the Caulfield Cup" being canceled or postponed due to weather.

"Business as usual" is the line coming out of headquarters.

RACE ON.

Ive been signed up for 2 years and used it once when they had a special on the cox plate last year. I completely forgot what my username was, took about 10 minutes to log in .

 

[catters078]

I reckon Kavanagh will scratch shocking late tomorrow before the race.

he wont want to risk an injury to the conditions and ruin his melbourne cup hopes..

thats only my opinion but i think it will happen.

 

[catters078]

i pre bought a ticket on Monday ...

i dont wanna waste my money so i will go anyway, but i wont be wearing a suit

 

[nobbyiscool]

to luxbet for not knowing how to run their site properly

signed up, but because the limit for the "lay of the day" special was $50, i just whacked $25 of my own money on it.

having done that, the free bet popped up and i thought "well there's no harm in trying".

i tried - and sure enough, the site has accepted my $100 free bet on shocking at $12.

the site tells me the bet has been accepted, so if they try and jip me know, i won't be lying down over it!


if shocking wins, i think i'll look at using the winnings to come down next week for the cox plate.

 

[tarky]

supposedly Mouralyn, Red Ruler and Valdemoro are all out now too

 

[GoodesStuff]

supposedly Mouralyn, Red Ruler and Valdemoro are all out now too

That would be 6 scratchings now already

 

[nobbyiscool]

hmmm... doing something that i usually hate doing and making most of my punts now.

i usually like getting up, doing another study of the form, read the paper and listening to the radio and punting as i go... but i think given that everyone is expecting mass scratchings, i decided it was pertinent to put all the bets that i'm set on now before the fields all shrink in the morning.
