It looks like it is Bart Cummings' spring this year. I wouldn't ignore anything he saddles in the Melbourne Cup. Viewed had an excellent prep on Saturday, but the Master may just had something up his sleeve we don't know about.

My 1-2-3 for the race are:
1. Mourilyan - a nice racing weight, has a fair bit of class and crucially a turn of foot. He is a bit of a monkey so may completely down tools when push comes to shove but worth a bet at about 30-1 2. Crime Scene - I actually really liked his Geelong Cup run when 6th (beaten 2L by Leica Ding) and is better off at the weights than the winner. If you look through his form, he nearly always improves loads second off a break and has a big shot here! I took some 80-1 before the weekend and am delighted with my bet 3. Master O'Reilly - all the hype has been about Bart's horses but this guy has been running really well without winning and Tuesday could be the day (if everything goes right) that he beats Viewed. Or Bart Cummings may just win it again.. Best of Luck all..

(I love this disappointing guy but am not understanding why he's in this field...) Sad about Efficient and Zipping.. it won't be as good without them.

The undercard is usually good for value priced winners also, keep your bullets handy, I am going to try to get home in time for atleast the 4th race The Sun Stakes.
* Small tip - The 5th race (5 furlong race) is on a straight course, outer post positions are not really that disadvantageous. Track listed as dead/good this morning. Last edited by CSC : 11-02-2009 at 09:40 AM.

Cheers to anyone who had it.
I'm a moron... didn't realize Mourilyans colors were that of the Chechen flag. Does Kadyrov get the  ??? Should he? Thoughts (?)

I was at Flemington on Tuesday, and both before, during and now after the race I don't think it was one of the best renewals we have seen (and that is perhaps being generous).
For once, they went off pretty slow in a staying race, which is widely noted for the pace it is run at. There were a lot of non stayers in the race and a lot of horses who needed them to go faster. Crime Scene should never ever be allowed to get so close to winning a Melbourne Cup. Because it was run more like a European staying event, the English horses ran pretty well. Well done to Shocking, but I'm less than convinced the best horse won.
