Ocean Billy been backed from $61 to $21 in NZ, they just can't turn the tap off on him.

Time for a quick brew and some toast before the big one.

Don't get caught with a position in the last few minutes as you can get some wild moves as people close out positions in the dying moments. Also there is the risk the API slows.

Good luck everyone for the big race, best of luck and see you on the other side!

One account holder backed it to win $1 million.

Yeah I traded out on him, greened out for $60 which is a huge result for me, now I can sit back have a beer and enjoy the race

I just thought I would check to see if any coverage was available on YouTube and Channel 10 has their coverage streaming live available to us poms as well. Only problem is the sound doesn't seem to work for me:

Edit: there is sound, it is just very very quiet, need to have the computer volume on full blast.

Agreed, snooze fest. Other tracks pause soon so all the focus will be on the cup.

Disappointing effort from myself, my worse Melbourne Cup result unfortunately. A profit but nothing to shout about.

I hope others have done well.

I only did about half of last year. Done OK on other races, but the MC refused to fill my orders. Can't do much about that.
