From The Sydney Morning Herald‘s Melbourne Cup form guide
Incredibly, the Melbourne Cup features a horse called Sculptor at number 17. Look no further than this fine equine specimen for your Melbourne Cup omen bet. With long odds of around 30 to 1, the odds sensibly reflect the actual position of sculpture in the art world – “can be a ratbag in the gates”. We’re looking at a sober place bet [crossing the line at first, second or third] for just 50 cents, but at those odds you’d be crazy not to. This is what your betting slip should look like:
Good luck!
