Makybe Diva wins Cup

MAKYBE Diva has made history, winning the $4.6 million Melbourne Cup at Flemington for the second year in a row.

The mare, ridden by Glen Boss and trained by Lee Freedman, beat Vinnie Roe (second) and Zazzman (third).

If ****** no 9 came in third I'd be in the money. Oh well the drink was good. Now to try and work and pretend to be sober.

aye 50 bucks down the tubes, I had Vinnie Roe

lucky I didn't bet this year ( all previous years me , or hubby has had the winners between us , Brew my hubby had in one year ( the winner) .. because he felt like a pint, the previous one was Rogan. ( the winner) . because he likes a good curry..lol, and I had second place last year or the year before... due to my posh cat, who picked it for me lol ( don't ask., but it is good idea to read the horses out of the paper night before, to your animal friends..and let them pick one for you..lol) ... horse "MR prudence", who came second .. way outsider, I won more than had I bet on win ) .. I fancied "catch me if you can" this year to win.

.. I didn't put a bet on any horse this year, only year I haven't bet on the cup ... awwww "poor catch me if you can". where did he finish? .. I'm in work and haven't heard, or seen the race. But I really fancied the lovely little outsider nag " catch me if you can"

Awww

Excellent Hubby got the winner in his work sweep stake and I got second in the cricket club sweep!!

Jo

no answers to what happened to "catch me if you can" .. I will catch it on the news when I get at home tonight

some people have to work you know ( between slacking off)


Cheers

catch me if you can... awww ... I'll adopt you!

i got first and second in the sweep
but the one i picked myself, she's archie romped in at last place!!!!!!!!

Got Maykbe in the sweep at work and on my own bet....... just spent some of my winnings down the pub though

Bl**dy hell where did catch me if you can finish?


you "blow in the wind" punters g*ts


Just joking.!!!!.. but nobody seems to know the horses, it seems one time punters who like to bet... catch me if you can... love what happened to you??? did you run? .. here horsey, horsey.. ignore the silly people who have just discovered the melbourne cup

cheers

where did my catch me if I can finish in the race , if started?? lol.

Someone here put 2 dollars on Roman Arch for me. Came 20th or something
One person won about $900 and some others 50 and stuff.

We ordered some chinese, ate it in the conference room. Paid by ourselves though!
And I just did the dishes....

Pascal's out having a more fancy lunch in Subi somewhere, with clients. Paid by his boss!

Allright I will find out what happened to my poor horse.. catch me if I can.

simple question

Did he start?
And if he did where did he finish?

I give up!.

yawn. simple question.. simple answer required . Don't worry, it's just I'm in work with no radio, well we have a radio.. but we are working above noise of machinery

Thanks guys, I'll try to be as helpful as you are to me in future.

cheers

Ceri,

'Catch me if you can' finished 8th in the Melb cup.

Hope that helps.

Anya.

Thank you Anya. "My" little "catch me if you can" .. didn't do so bad after all ( right outsider)

cheers

Go you good thing! Had money on Makybe Diva and Vinnie Roe (although I suspect the rest of the world did too).....

I went down to the TAB on the way to Bordy's place and put $5 each way on Vinnie Roe, only because I heard he'd do well in the wet (it was tipped to rain this afternoon) and my daughter wanted NO 5 to win (ddn't matter who it was) so we won!!!!!
