Oh yes, the big man tips truly (in the story below). The Melbourne Cup was run and won with the Japanese Horses, Delta Blues and Pop Rock, running first and second , respectively, a breathe seperating them at the finish. Maybe Better ran 3rd, followed by Zipping and Land ‘N stars (at 210/1). delta Blues paid $18.80 for the win! The bright amongst you will notice I tipped you the first two and 4th and 5th. Phew, what an effort. I am but a modest man though and I shall just say … good on me!
