Well it was good to see that the major end of the prize money remains in Australia.

I had a couple of Dollars on No.17 as I thought that he was well in it due to the small weight.

So now I will bank same for the 2017 Cup, as I tend only to have a flutter on the 1st Tuesday in November.

Hope you had a win

Yeh JayDee, I had one of those scham fortune tellers pop up during the week. I went through the bull dust and he quoted 2,8,11 for me. I said to Mum, I reckon I should have a go. I went to the bank and got a $50 note. Got to the bookie shop and thought, don't be stupid and kept walking. Now I will have a go at Saturdays Lotto.

Hey macca for the last 35 years I have been in a lotto syndicate along with 5 other guys doing a systems 8 always using the same numbers. After a few years of only ever winning a couple of hundred dollars we decided to up the ante and enter our lucky numbers in the Monday and Wednesday draws. So far the only thing that I have learnt from this experience is that gambling really is a tax on the stupid - can't wait for Saturday though as I'm sure that our turn is just around the corner. No way I would ever have a bet on the Melbourne cup too big a chance that I could lose my $2.
