Our boys might have been celebrating the Melbourne Cup win but the party after the race has now turned into a 'super' spreader event.
The owner and 4 others have Covid.
Fingers crossed our boys are all clear and the others celebrating are all ok.

I thought this thread was gonna be about punts people had laid on the cup, but alas, Zips is still footy focused. Dunno why…

Regardless l’ll still share my hard luck story. Had a box trifecta but I did not include the bloody winner. I had 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th

Could’ve, would’ve, should’ve, didn’t!

25% of the 1st 4 :) - collect was $1350

I had a 6 horse boxed first 4 which included the 5th horse also (The Chosen One) and the other one was Tralee Rose (9th). Not bad.

I only included Very Elegant because J Mac was on board and her Cox Plate run was very good.

I also had a 4 horse box trifecta and just needed Floating Artist to pip Spanish Mission to collect on that also.
