The FastDay Forum

For Aussie forum members.

ive heard Hawkspur is a good horse to look at.

Any secret race news to divulge?

Have a good Melbourne cup day. Im fasting so no champagne or gourmet delights for me. Yesterday I took part in an Indian Diwli feast so its definitely a fast for me today.

I have no tips other than enjoy the sunshine!

I was intending to fast today but then woke up to an invitation to a friend's BBQ. I'm not going to survive that without food so moving my fast to tomorrow.

going to donate to SAHA - hubbie going to have a little bet and donate the same amount - thought thats a good idea, so may do that :

What is SAHA?

For me, any horse that is grey and/or English. It's how I won the cost back of going to the Melbourne cup a few years ago!!! And that was quite a lot I can tell you!!!

Ugh! Melbourne Cup Day is right up there with Boxing Day (sailing!) in the boredom stakes. I'm avoiding the telly. I've been for a walk, done some exercises, picked and arranged some flowers and now I'm going to settle down with ABC-FM and a good book. Let me know when it's over!!!

I should have been giving you the tips!

i put $10 for a win on the winner .. yippeeee only other bet was a box trifecta for $6 so im in front. im dancing now
