Count me in

Peter,
count me in for 2 if you don't get the players.
be a shame for a player with 60k to spend.
the prize money is awesome!!!

thanks again for running such a great contest.

There's still a bit of time so not going to do 2 yet. I'm going to post a main forum thing to hopefully get some people in

Sounds fun, count me in too.

I'm in. Sounds interesting.

Count me in, sir.

I will give it a shot.

I'd like to play too!

Awesome...we have our 24 people. List is on the opening post, if I've missed anyone then let me know

In the next couple of days...if not today...I will send everyone on the list a horse for $60,000. Accept this horse. The horse won't be that good so if you're interested in keeping it, I don't mind. If not, send it back to me in a couple days. Once everyone has accepted their horses, I will allocate everyone a number and once the field is released, you'll know your horse.

The Melbourne Cup is on Tuesday November 2nd; sometime Monday night 1st Novemeber for those North America inclined

Horses have been sent out. Send me a message if I filled the amount in incorrectly.

Also - if I called you Cleo accidently I'm sorry. That was the first one I did, and I probably forgot to change the name at least once

Last year 22 won, with 11 second and 14 third. So don't despair if you have an outside barrier/gate/post position/ whatever else people call them.

I'll refund the money if your horse is scratched, and there will be a deduction in the pool dependent on whether I'm feeling particularly cheap on the day or not

Prizemoney is as said before: 1st: $1,140,000; 2nd: $650,000; 3rd: $350,000; Last: $100,000

The field will be released a few hours after Friday's results. I won't be home at that time to update it, but if you're really interested in the horse you have try this link:

Cheers and good luck!

It's done by barrier, so you're not done yet

I'm guessing I have Buccellati then. Go for last place boy!

Thanks Cleo, yeah that looks right. Horses have been added to the opening post. Looks like Franky is in the box seat at this stage!

The race is at Tuesday 3pm Melbourne time, so one hour after Monday results in the SIM

Bauer is scratched so Michael will get his money repaid to him. Since I can't be bothered working out new amounts for the prizes, we'll just keep them the way they are

The race is in just over 5 hours

Good luck!
