He got off light. Anyone know where he’s staying tonight? He owes me some moneyNoted Riddles. Dettori got 9 days i think.

Spot on ezy. Il Paradiso one of the greatest certainties beaten I’ve ever seen. Made worse by the fact that I backed itId like to see a 2 horse match race between a stallion and a mare in season.
Frankie Dettori on the mare, Connor McGregor on the stallion.
they just keep running until one of them gets whipped or bitten or hoofed off their mount.
no rules
I reckon the pay per view would be a huge take.
Frankie will have a lot of new fan club members though. Everyone who backed Vow and Declare owes Frankie.
Without his reckless psycho chimp riding, Ill Paradiso simply wins The Cup.
In the context, Possibly THE stiffest run I have ever seen.
Of course it should have been upheld JB. Il Paradiso should have clearly won the race. Happy to declare I backed him and am biased but I defy anyone to watch the replay and say he shouldn’t have won. He was finishing all over them and the interference stopped him dead in his tracks.
Dettori is a disgrace. He did the same in 2015. Hopefully he gets a substantial suspension again.
Frankie would probably like to have his time again, he had the whip in the left hand, Master of Reality was laying out ever so slightly, so he put the whip in the right hand at the clock tower and the rest is history.
A great ride by Williams, he and Nash Rawliller both had a great day, they're both Richmond supporters
If Frankie had his time again, he'd try drive his whip up someones arse and bite his horses inside ear off.
He's an animal.
I wouldn't mind him in the forward pocket for Richmond.
Mate of mine lost a few hundred due to the protest. He had all of the first 4 in his trifecta but the divi dropped by about 30%. Could have been worse I suppose.
Roycey did ok with backing Prince of Arran each way though gave most of it back on the punt and the grog.
Most frustrating part of the day was being stuck behind two clowns checking about 15 non paying mystery trifectas on a machine 45 minutes after the frigging cup. I saw the names of the nags, FFS , Mer de Glace and Cross Counter did not run a drum! It's not that hard to check with your reading skills!
Possibly so. I remember hearing/reading this some time ago.
Jumped the wrong way and backed Prince Of Arran which looked the winner all the way down the straight but just didn't finish off the 3200m. Agree that Il Paradiso should have won. Dettori has a (bad) habit of influencing results, for a world class jockey he seems to lose control or maybe doesnt care for his fellow riders. Happy with the result for the stable - not your traditional lead in.Cup Day and like Prince of Arran at around the $17 mark. Is proven at the distance (important), ran 3rd in last years cup in soft ground so should handle track but note he is not a mudlark. Geelong Cup winner's have been running good races in the Melb Cup for ages now - just think at the price he is worth a $1 each way.
Danny O is very happy with Vow and Declare but barrier no help and ground a slight query - Mrs T44 is backing it.
Good punting all
Just heard Craig call himself a Richmond man on radio. Said his horse gave the equivalent of a Dusty don't argue!
Dettori must barrack for Sydney, gave the equivalent of a Barry Hall.

After Walker’s indiscretion with the whip in the Cup, I like the irony of him winning race 7 at Kyneton on Persuader.
