Go hug a tree 65 this is about the big race pal.

My tip . Trip to Paris or Preferement. Really is a difficult race to predict but rarely do you see a complete outsider win

Red Cadeaux will  be the punters favourite.

Red Cadeaux is going to be ok.

Stevie Payne is a sensational story to come out of the cup.

The do gooders will crap on about the injury to Red Cadeaux and ignore a story so brilliant a movie will be made.

Reckon Michelle's story is pretty special too.

Actually the entire Payne Family story is a special one
