scooby3051 10,668 Report post Posted November 4, 2017 Here you go everyone and best of luck...good selecting. Ok I will run a comp on the Melbourne Cup with a twist. You need to pick the Winner and second horse as well as the horse who finishes last. One more twist is the comp will close on the Sunday before the Cup, so weather can maybe be a factor too. Prize is now a $600 total win/place ( Thanks to Insiders Help), bet on a horse of the winners choosing over the last two days of the carnival...total prize is $600 just so as no confusion. Who is in for a bit of fun??? If any of you selections for 1st and 2nd are scratched then you go on to the race Fav....if your horse to run last is scratched you can replace it. 1 entry per Racecafe user however many different names you may have. If nobody has the correct order then I will decide the closest to the correct order and if more than one person has them correct we will split it between however many there are. My decision will be the only one that counts LOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
