WS Cox Plate on in Melbourne today. No idea who would win especially with three internationals in the race. Coolmore were back again after winning last year's race.
I thought the only mare in the race, Winx, was a false favourite as she had been winning against inferior opposition plus it was her first try racing anti-clockwise and also her first start on the tricky, tight Moonee Valley racecourse. Started laying her on Thursday on Betfair and gave as much as $7.80. Still layed her up until this morning. I rarely lose when laying but got it wrong big time today. She started $4.50 and won by nearly 5 lengths. Cost me about $300 AU Would have been worse but I laid another in the race and it obviously did not win. Not to worry. I will get it back. Melbourne Cup on again in about 10 days. Japanese horse, Fame Game is all the rage so I might just lay that. Plus it is usually won by an import or overseas bred these days so easy to lay the Aussie & Kiwi bred horses as well. Plus all the UK jumps races on again. Some have huge fields so very hard to pick the winner. Look at race 6 at Cheltenham tonight. It has 18 runners. Of course I don't know any of these horses. I pick one or two at random around the 18-25/1 mark, lay them to lose about $500 and hope for the best. Seriously, I won thousands doing this around 2003 but nothing is guaranteed. Gave it away when I started going back to LOS on my own in 2004. Blew it all on the Pattaya bar girls instead. Still doing it in a roundabout way

That's an even worse strategy than marrying a bargirl, both are gonna leave you skint.
Lay short price favourites especially in big field (over 8 runner) novice chases is one system I like.

Melbourne Cup on tomorrow Tues 3rd Nov. 11am Pattaya time.
The usual lottery with all the UK, Japanese, Irish & Euro imports running plus the "ex-pat" horses born overseas but trained by Australians & Kiwis. Going to lay the favourite, Fame Game. Favourites and horses carrying 57kgs and above rarely win. So a double whammy for him. Which means, knowing my form, he will win easily. Will have a couple of bob on Our Ivanhowe & Excess Knowledge. Take those horses with Trip to Paris, Who Shot the Barman, Preferment, Almonquith and the best named horse in the race, Max Dynamite in quinellas, trifectas and First 4s. Good luck to all having a flutter on the big race

Barrier draw seems to be helping in the early races. Need to be near the inside running. I think the winner will have to be in the first bunch at the turn first time around. So Max D with F Dettori on board from barrier 2. Keeping the favourite safe in the trifecta, along with Trip to Paris, which can obviously go the distance :).

Still I picked up $100 (minus commission) from Fame Game losing on Betfair
