The Free Melbourne Cup Horse Racing Betting System

This horse racing betting system selection method has consistently highlighted the best winning chances in the Melbourne Cup. Last year it found the $13.00 Melbourne Cup winner, Americain. In 2009 it found the $17.00 Melbourne Cup winner, Shocking.

Here are the tips to help you find the Melbourne Cup winner.

1. The horse should have finished no further back than fourth at its last start.

2. Look for good performers, particularly in the Caulfield Cup, Cox Plate Day and Derby Day. The 2009 Melbourne Cup Winner, Shocking won over 2500 metres on Derby Day.

3. Don't ignore horses that have at least placed over 3200 metres.

4. Look for a leading jockey, preferably a jockey with local knowledge.

5. Look for trainers with a track record of success in the Melbourne Cup and big Group races.

6. If a last start winner, look for a drop in weight. Americain was a last start winner and dropped 3.5 kg. in weight when it won the 2010 Melbourne Cup. In 2009 Shocking was a last start winner and dropped 2.5 kg. in weight.

7. If the track is rain affected, then check that the horse has shown it can handle the going. A horse won't be scratched on Cup Day because it's raining - but after the race we'll be told, "It didn't handle the conditions."

Good luck.
