Here is the final field of horses running in the 2011 Melb. Cup which will stop the nation, and other parts of the world tomorrow, November 1st at 3:00PM.
I have included the barrier number in brackets after the horses name, the trainer, jockey and weight the Cup horse will carry into the race.
Current Melbourne Cup favourite: Americain is carrying a massive 58 kilo’s due to winning last year, can he become the sixth horse in history to win the biggest thoroughbred race in the Southern Hemisphere more than once? Punters seem to think so, backing him in to $5, clear favourite from Dunaden who is paying between $7 and $8 from various online Aussie bookies.
I’ll edit this post to include any last minute jockey changes, late scratchings, or anything else of note that may occur over the next 24 hours.
