    Paying $19

    It hasn’t had many starts

    I’ll put $10 on it for a win.

    Paying $101 on Sportsbet and $26 for the place.

    I have my eye on Twilight Payment, no reason other than I like the name :).

    Me too. I hope it does a Bradbury.

    Doesn't seem to be much buzz about the race.

    Cruelty set must've howled everyone down.

    Ocean Billy is standing out for me, but does it mean I am gonna put $100 nope

    In the hindsight, I always calculate the amount I could have won on trifecta (or 1st, 2nd try scorer in footy) if put $10K lol

    Great House won a big race today, so now it is in the Melbourne Cup. Barrier 7. Used to be a donkey but now a chance. Wow. Just like the property market.

    Hope Great House doesn’t turn out to be a s#%! House. The way I’ve been raving on, about half of the Druitt will have their dole payment on it. Expect the crime rate to surge next week if it doesn’t get up.
