Raw,

I'm normally dead against betting early on the cups as so much can go wrong. That's why I decided to only bet a grand total of just $20 for a bit of fun on four horses I thought were value at that early stage.

I actually liked the chances of Accumulate, so I had him and Vinnie Roe for the Melbourne Cup. And I picked out Matras and Tick By for the Caulfield Cup. I can sure pick 'em, cant I?
