This is a very special 2016 Emirates Melbourne Cup Flemington horse racing edition of the MugPunters.com.au Podcast and coming up in this bonus episode:

• We give our expert analysis and tips for the race that stops a nation (except for brain surgeons. I’m pretty sure they keep working… and pilots. I’m confident they don’t stop either).
• And Mills schools us on terms like field, barrier draw, track rating, jockey, trainer, form, track work and horse as we get schooled by the betting agencies and websites as we’re reminded that we truly are mug punters
• So join the ever delightful Francesca Camani, co-hosts out and about Mel McLaughlin and Jennifer Hawkins, plus a bunch of aging crusty white anglo punting blokes as they broadcast the richest race in Australia and we give guaranteed tips to make a profit… tips not guaranteed

PLUS we provide a run down of every horse starting in the cup and our analysis and tips that are better comedy value than punting value.

We feel a little like Rocky today. Gotta pick ourselves back off the canvas after the debacle of Derby day, but like any good Mug Punter, we make some top excuses and find some more cash to have a play on the biggest race day of the year!
