A bonnie tip.
The day that stops the nation. I'm lucky to be here for it. And more's the point, in Melbourne and heading to the Moët tent. But first - why not be like everyone else and pretend I know more than I do about the big race?
Initially, I liked Zipping, because of his hard to avoid form and the jockey factor with the boss on board.
Others I like for a nibble each way are 'Maybe Better' and 'On a Jeune'. On a Jeune seems a seasoned campaigner and smart enough to go all the way.
All in all though my heritage governs my sure bet with my UK compatriot, Yeats, to take it in a nail bitter. (And Geordieland's just a bit far south for my liking).
So my tips are
1st- Yeats
2nd- On a Jeune
3rd- Zipping
Box these 3 and you will not be disappointed.
I'll also have a tidy little sum on the nose for Yeats to win.
Good luck.
Now, off to the race.

Back on your pony, Charlie boy! Your tips are pants.
Geordieland's my pick for a win, while Zipped is the only thing you're close to getting a pay out on Charlie Boy.
Get real Charlie - Efficient is going all the way.
Yeah all the way home - it's scratched doofus
Hey Charles,
If you get a chance to read this before you head out I'm going to be in the Channel 7 tent with Jennifer make sure pop in.
Good Luck!
Jane.
I'm with you Charlie, Yeats is looking tippy top.
Ah, Charles.
I ran into Morgan in Sydney last week and she said you were in Australia. And more's to the point heading to the race.
I'm over for a meeting - good timing wouldn't you say?
Might see you out at the track. Foster's tent. (And I thought Australians said they didn't drink the stuff).
I'm back off to Blighty Thursday. You in Edinburgh for New Year?
Hope to see you there.

You migh be able to pick the ladies but certainly not the horses......
"box' what? as if you know what you are talking about? have a chat with someone in the bar of the Como, did you?
Just kidding mate, have a look at Mandala, i think he will be pretty handy.

Cheers Big Ears
