melbourne cup market

[stugots]

hi all, anybody know if a market is out yet for this years cup & if so where i can get a bet on?

ive seen a market on bet fair

[Chuck]

betfair has leica falcon and headturner at $13, Eremein $16.5, Serenade Rose $18.5 and Deep Impact $17

I think its unlikely Deep impact will be coming although its run in the Tenno Sho was just amazing. Missed the start by a mile, was caught 3-4 wide THE ENTIRE race and still won by about 10 lengths. though i think its going to the Arc D' Triomphe instead of melbourne and taking a tour around Europes finest. i'll get the video for u guys if i can find it, deep impact is currently rated 3rd best horse in the world

We know how good he is. The fact that he's about $17 is a good guide that he's almost certainly not coming. If he was likely to run, you'd think he'd be about 6 or 7 bucks at this stage.

whats the asutralian website for betfair? i was on it the other day but now i keep getting the markets coming up in pounds??

Lachlan River, On a Jeaune, and Xcellent look good bets.......

[Chrome Prince]

Why do they do this back at $1.01, lay at $200, ridiculous. Are there that many newbies still around??

Anyway, the liquidity sucks big time, but 42/1 On A Jeune and 85/1 Eye Popper looks good, but we need to know who's likely to run at this stage, or it's all in vain.

At this stage any horse which won or placed in the Caulfield or Melbourne Cups are huge overs if they run.

I still like On A Jeune to win this far out.

Last year, I said if the horse is sound and anywhere near peak this year, the race in the bag ;)

Just back the NZ horses this year, they have been killing us in the group staying events.
