    LOL.It's the one race in Australia that everyone bets on but nobody should bet on.Every horse has a very good chance of winning.The horses come from all over the world to compete.The whole country stops for the running of this race.

    I know better not to bet on a horse. I once bet on one at 10:1. It came in a quarter to four.

    If I was there you can bet I'd bet on Fiorentine. We'd sit with you and your wife and cheer. (Is cheering what you do?)'


    Did you win a lot? Huh?

    I didn't bet on this one Itsmee.Fiorente was the favourite.It was pretty much a boat race & a foregone conclusion.She's a hell of a horse with a hell of a jockey.
