I got slaughtered, despite using longshots (which filled the placings).

We don't really cover Oz racing at all, and I'm not really au fait with any of their horses. Although Tawqeet is one I know a bit about as he was trained by John Dunlop over here last season, including when finishing 3rd to Scorpion in the St Leger.
I downright refuse to back any Australian horse for the Melbourne Cup so my lack of knowledge isn't a real hindrance when it comes to that. We have a fierce sporting rivalry with the Aussies, so I'll probably back all the British challengers (& Yeats) in a double with England to win the Ashes this winter (that's cricket if you didn't know)!!
