25
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: Look, it's a tough day to pick winners today. Melbourne

26
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: Cup is no different. Melbourne Cup kicks off at one thirty,

27
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 2: but there's a lot of height that goes on before that.

28
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 2: So look, I'm sticking with the winner of the Geelong Cup.

29
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 2: One smooth operator, Lucky number thirteen with Craig Milliams aboard.

30
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 2: So that's my for what it's worth, that's my tip

31
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: of the day.

32
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 1: Well, look, I always like to hear people's tips because

33
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: I have absolutely no idea who to back grant, so

34
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: I really appreciate any any advice that's provided.

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, there's there's a caveat on some of my

36
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 2: advice and that ship. So yeah, all the best of

37
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: all the best of your listeners. But the more information

38
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: you get doesn't necessarily make you a better punter. Not

39
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: wish everyone lucky, gamble responsibly?

40
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, very true. Hey, Grin, are you expecting a strong

41
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: turnout the salvo there at Fatty Bay as well? You

42
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: usually get a pretty big crowd, don't you for cup date?

43
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, look for Melbourne Cup date. It's one of our

44
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 2: bigger feature race days outside of our carnival certainly, and

45
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 2: look like I said, all of our hospitality is sold out.
