Well I'm not drunk yet but I'm about to after losing all that money. Stunning.

100-1 FFS. All the favourites bar Trip to Paris and Max Dynamite never even looked like winning.

Anyone who thinks horse racing isn't the most rigged and corrupt sport in Australia is naive. Ridiculous that a 100-1 horse can even come close.
I must admit I am suspicious that perhaps the least talked about horse in the race goes on to win in a breeze.

Here's the five who will finish in the last 10.

Big Orange
Hokko Brave
Max Dynamite
Red Cadeaux
Sertorius

The next lot won't run a place.

Snow Sky
The Offer
Prince Of Penzance

These ones are doubtful to run a place.

Hartnell
Who Shot Thebarman (unfortunately)
Sky Hunter
Grand Marshal
Quest For More
Kingfisher
Bondi Beach
Gust Of Wind

That leaves 8 contenders. Out of those, these are my best chances.

Fame Game
Our Ivanhowe
Trip To Paris
Almoonqith
Excess Knowledge

Criterion, Preferment and The United States just don't cut the mustard for me. Now watch all this blow up in my face!! :lol: :lol:

Well f**k I'm a good judge of the equine flesh!!

Sorry to the missus for blowing the equivalent of a nice new washing machine. About $1200 on that merkin of a race. :cry: :cry: :cry:
