For progroupracing.com.au, Show Us Your Tips returns to preview the big one, the Melbourne Cup card from Flemington. The rain is in town as the rail moves into the 2m mark, but we’re optimistic it can remain close to the soft 7 mark if the worst of the rain doesn’t happen throughout the card.

The race that stops a nation, the Lexus Melbourne Cup is the headline act on a massive ten race card that includes Group 3 contests in the form of the Maribyrnong Plate for the babies and the Hong Kong Jockey Club Stakes over the 1400m, as well as Listed contests with the MSS Security Sprint, Furphy Plate & TAB Trophy.

Randwick has just as deep a card, headlined by the $2million Big Dance, and $500k Little Dance. The rail is also in the 2m mark and there is the forecast of rain on what it currently a good track.

Can the Lloyd Williams colours salute in big money feature again with Hosier starting as favourite, or is there a fairytale finish in the offing?
