Thanks, pleased to see you're recovering from that disaster. Look forward to the big one next week.
Australian racing
I tend to go quiet when I really concentrating. I'm hitting the sack now so I can get some rest before the UK starts up again.
I had a decent session in the end, but was a bit inconsistent. Something to work on ahead of Tuesday!
Thursday is decent
Seems to be loads more money around for the supporting cards too, great to see
There are 1 x Group 1 and 2 x Group 3's, includes the Oaks, wondered if everyone would be punted out after Tuesday and if it was worth the effort of getting up for it.
Sounds like you will be getting up Peter but aren't expecting much from it?
Good luck tomorrow to those waking up early to have a go at the Melbourne Cup carnival.
The Cup itself is building nicely. I’ve taken out the one wood already and have established a really good starting position.
I'm guessing Derek, Peter, Dallas and Naffman all have the alarm set. Or will be just staying up super late.

I'm in two minds which way to do it still, I will likely opt for an early night and an alarm set early rise that way it'll take less adjusting to get my clock back right afterwards
Witht he first race of the night being at 11:45pm at Hobart followed by Flemington at 11:50pm I am still undecided as well Dallas. I think I will do the same as the weekend and skip the first hour or so as those times are 10:45am and 10:50am Oz time so I don't think I will miss to much and will be fresher for once the racing gets going properly for the day and also the UK racing afterwards.
After a lovely long nights sleep and lie in this morning and a day off from the markets and a really good mountain bike ride this afternoon I am looking forward to the session and the Eurpean's bringing the Cup back home with us again!
I only just found out that Queensland have sorted out their issues and there is now no strike there as planned.
Also a bit of care is needed in picking which NSW markets to trade to ensure enough is left for the weekend racing.
I think it is Enzo and John Berry in the studio on ATR for Flemington - Enzo doesnt half put the shifts in, will no doubt be commentating later in the day somewhere.
