Today’s Melbourne Cup Day race runners come in large field sizes, with 22 runners in the Melbourne Cup race itself. Big Trifectas will be common today, and a few random runners included in the selections could just be the mix.
Some overseas runners here are hard to assess, and the overall best strategy to use, is to look for value. The following selections have been picked based on their recent runs, breeding, and light weight, and can be bet as a G Network racing selection, or included in your multiples.
