LATE MAIL | Racing Royalty Richard Freedman Gives His Melbourne Cup Tips

It’s only hours until the 161st Melbourne Cup jumps and if you’re reading this you still don’t have a horse, do you? Now, it would be very easy to get on board Queensland-trained Incentivise, the shortest odds since Phar Lap or maybe that’s too obvious. You probably don’t have a system of picking by the prettiest colours or your favourite number either (despite Jenny from research winning nearly every year) - You’re too smart for that, or at least that’s what you tell yourself.

At the same time your group chats are no doubt going off with your degenerate mates offering up their sure-things. It all seems hopeless at this point

Fortunately, racing royalty Richard Freedman joined The Big Breakfast with Marto & Margaux this morning with his tips that you can take to the bank (gamble responsibly)

The Melbourne Cup gets underway from 2pm (QLD). Keep it on 104.5 Triple M as we take the call LIVE.
