Yep. A modest effort from me. About 1/3 of my best ever effort.
As you say Peter - treacle.
Australian racing
Yeah I struggled to get filled. But as you say the other races have been good and for me have more than made up for the poor result on the Cup. Hopefully pick up a good bit more in the next couple of hours and could still be a record Melbourne Cup day.
Good to see Very Elleegant win. One (of the many) things I like about Australian racing is you really get to know the horses as they run the horse so often down under, in the UK you might be lucky to see a horse run a handful of times on the flat. Happy to see J Mac get it and a good run from Andrew Baldings runner Spanish Mission.

Peter - after you have had your bowl of Minestrone soup could you do a short write up on what you find, if anything, in the data please.
It seems the general feeling was that we have had better Melbourne Cups from a trading view.
Also fair play to Betfair, the site didn't seem to struggle at all.

Happy to see J Mac win and also for Chris Waller, Verry Elegant went straight into my black book when she won her first race, what a marePDC wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 4:11 amYeah I struggled to get filled.

Even Randwick has been starting near jump time. They've realised it's not all about them today.

They did threaten early on but got their act together sharpish thankfully.
Gutted Flemington has finished, it got better and better as the session went on for me. Best result in the lucky last.
Hopefully Thursday is at least half as good.
