Mr Celebrity and Leica Falcon in one of the biggest match races ever to get into the melbourne Cup.

Both HAVE to win the Saab to qualify.

Pretty sure you'll find that first AND second from the SAAB get in, and if they run 1-2, they'll both be in.

That's not right Sportz, ONLY the WINNER of the Saab is exempted - to the second placegetter it means twiddly dee.

It used to be the case that the second placegetter got exempted but they have changed the rules re exemption etc.

There are just two Australian races that offer exemption into the Melbourne Cup, and they are the Cox Plate and the Saab and then it's only the winners of those two races.

Yep. You're right there. He only just missed out on 3rd yesterday too.
