Melbourne Cup Picks
Posted in Sport by Lee Suckling on November 4th, 2008
Looking for tips on Melbourne Cup picks for this afternoon?
The southern hemisphere’s biggest annual equestrian championship takes place today, and with approximately $8 million Kiwi dollars expected to be placed in bets from our side of the Tasman on the races, it’s sure to be another exciting extravaganza of sportsmanship. Last year Efficient crossed the line at Flemington to win the Melbourne Cup, who will win this year?
Many New Zealand bets are on Irish beauty Septimus for the big win, but if you’re feeling truly patriotic, Kiwi horse Nom De Jeu is expected to have a great chance at taking away first place.
Sky Sport 1 will broadcast extended coverage from 12pm to 6pm today, while TV3 will broadcast the big race starting from 5pm.
