I'd like to ride Michelle Payne :)
It was a classic Aussie sporting story; 100/1 roughie wins, first female jockey to win, the strapper is her brother with Down's Syndrome, the part owners (only a 10% stake) are a bunch of blokes who bought the horse without telling their wives.
make that two................hahaQuote:

I suppose just as well the horse is a 100-1 shot, if he is in the market, she will be most likely to be pushed away and make way for a more experienced male jockey like a Boss, or Bowman or Oliver !!
But hey, no one is gonna to replace her now !!
And what a wonderful story with Michelle and her brother Stevie who suffers from down syndrome !! he has now trapper a Melbourne Cup winner !!

And for the first time in 50 years where there is no Bart on the first Tuesday in November, with Michelle Payne, there were some Bart connections too, it was Bart back in 2009 who gave Michelle her first win in a Group 1 race on board Allez Wonder in the Toorak Handicap.

And subsequently gave Michelle her first ride in the Caulfield Cup and the Melbourne Cup in the same year.

The horse must have been running a dud in its career to get 100/1 odds.
It is a tough long race. Where does it suddenly get the athletic ability to beat all the other horses in a sprint at the end of two miles? Where was this athletic talent before? It is almost like me suddenly able to beat usain bolt.
I can't invent athletic talent - how does the horse? It earned those long odds somehow. Or does its odds mean it was carrying no lead and that alone makes all the difference?
I know as much about horse racing as I do about american football. Doesn't stop me airing my opinions / ignorance though! :shout:
Or maybe to qualify for the prestigious Melbourne cup a horse has to have a running history good enough, and the long odds only reflect its relative strength against the favoured horses with even better histories. That is, put the Pirates of Penzance in race no.6 at Doomben and its odds might be only 3 / 1 !
Now why didn't some of you horse heads tell me that instead of letting me continue to bask in my ignorance.
Boo hoo hoo, maybe I'm just doomed to kill conversations stone dead with my contributions. :cry:
Fair comments !Quote:

And hence the different in prices !!
Then all of a sudden , they both run in the Cup for the first time and of course both are running a strong race , in the end, Criteriin carries 57.5 kg vs the Prince was on 52kg, so that the different I guess!
Rest assured , if both horses shall ever meet again in the Cup, their weight will be much closer and you won't get 100 to 1 again !
First 4 was paying 300k. That's a lot of punting
Michelle Payne wins again today at Flemington ! Got the winner and trifecta and first 4, not enough to ease the pain on Tuesday but pay for a few sessions none the less !
I do have an omen tip for myself only on race 8: No 15 Spanish Love! It's 71 to 1 chance but got to put $5.00 each way on !!.........haha

Why ? Chris Waller, why you not running Winx in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes on Saturday ?
Yes, I know the long term goal is for her to win a second Cox Plate, but that's six months away man, and no guarantee she will come up again. While she is in form, you should run her brother, damn, there goes my triple bet !!
So hard to pick the Golden Slipper and Doncaster winners and now she is Not running in the QE !!
That's 13 RnT sessions (@$85.00) for me man !! :fire::fire::fire:
if Winx not winning in next Saturday QE race. Bloodstock value will drop more than the prize money for that race. 3million dollars.
I will not take the risk either if I am the owner.
Who cares about a small punter like me!
