We can now add Dunaden to the Sea Eagles among the list of winners tipped right here in the DD Blog this year. But how close was it? The tightest finish ever in a Melbourne Cup.
Dunaden by a nose!
The tip was there for all to see yesterday, complete with a photo of the French stayer winning the Geelong Cup last month. And what a price! $9.10 for the win and $3.40 the place on the NSW TAB… great odds if you took the tip.
Unfortunately, while this punter backed both Dunaden and 3rd placegetter Lucas Cranach each way for a nice little earn, I missed out on the Trifecta when American finished just behind the placegetters in 4th place. Red Cadeaux was not among the five I boxed.
All in all, another great Cup Day in another great year of sport. (Now if only Federer can win the end of year ATP World Tour Finals in a couple of weeks time!)

I backed on Shamrocker. Good thing I also did on Lucas Cranach.
