Isn’t the Derby in June? Yes and no….<\/p>\n

If you are in Australia, early tomorrow morning (UK Time)\u00a0 is Derby Day in Victoria. This kicks off the Melbourne Cup carnival and a week of top class Australian action. On Tuesday we have the race that stops a nation, the Melbourne Cup.\u00a0It’s a busy period full stop on the horse racing front, as we also have the Breeders Cup in Santa Anita.<\/p>\n

Typically the Friday on Breeders Cup day is a quiet pre-cursor to the big action on Saturday, but Friday so far has been a bit better than I expected.<\/p>\n

If you really want to push it, you could actually trade clean through from midday Friday to midnight on Saturday. That’s a bit masochistic, but something I have actually done in the past; but I’m a little more relaxed now. The longer you do this, the harder it is to break records and that’s the only reason I would throw the kitchen sink in over this period. This year I’m content to pick off the best opportunities and there will be plenty around over these two days.<\/p>\n

Good luck if you are trading them, it’s a good way to close out a busier period as we head into the tougher winter schedule (In the UK at least)<\/p>\n
