Melbourne Cup

[Bluetongue]

Every year if my family isn't giving me SOL I run a free sweep up here. 1k baht total prizemoney. Of course they love it, I'll put it on the big screen later this afternoon and we'll sit down and watch it together. I give them their colours so they know what to look for. After 5 years this will be the third sweep. Luckily in previous years my wife has been in the prizemoney winning with Americain and coming third. She is tinny like that.

This year I have drawn Americain and it is the election day in USA. Sufficient for an omen. She has drawn the 12 Galileos Choice. My number one SiL has drawn last years winner the 1 rug. Get on the 2/12/1 trifecta. Or throw that away and go for the rough Thai connection of Maluckyday (every Thai every day)/Zabeelionaire (guess who)/Red Cadeaux ( free tablets).
