Melbourne Cup Odds

Melbourne Cup odds are not just pulled out of thin air, and knowing the factors that influence the odds will help you place a smarter bet at online bookies like bookmaker.com.au.

The Melbourne Cup odds will change based on factors such as how horses run in prep races, any injuries the top contenders take, and the weights assigned to each runner. Punters who keep on top of the information can use it to make smarter bets.

The 2012 Melbourne Cup odds will change many times in the lead up to the race, but you will get the best odds by betting early.

Australia’s leading online bookie bookmaker.com.au already have futures Melbourne Cup odds open on the likely entries.

In the pre-nomination Melbourne Cup betting odds the favourites can be found at prices of $20 and over making this a very lucrative way to punt on the world’s richest handicap.

Of course once the 2012 Melbourne Cup nominations are taken in early September the Melbourne Cup odds will become shorter.

2012 Melbourne Cup Odds

Early favourites in the pre-nomination 2012 Melbourne Cup odds you can bet on right now at bookmaker.com.au include:

  • AMERICAIN – (Bet on Americain now) – 2010 Melbourne Cup winner ran a brave fourth last year, now prepared in Australia by David Hayes and is set for a big spring as they get up in distance
  • MANIGHAR – (Bet on Manighar now) – Peter Moody’s ace import is a triple Group 1 champ thanks to their incredible autumn – winter campaign, finished a good fifth in the 2011 Melbourne Cup when prepared by Luca Cumani
  • GREEN MOON  – (Bet on Green Moon now) – Lloyd Williams’ owned stayer ran second in last year’s Caulfield Cup, didn’t make the Melbourne Cup field but looks on track to be there this Melbourne Cup Carnival
  • LUCAS CRANACH – (Bet on Lucas Cranach now) – Exciting German import trained by Anthony Freedman, ran a good third in the Melbourne Cup last spring, had just one run in the autumn before being injured, recovering well ready to get back to it later in the year
  • MAWINGO – (Bet on Mawingo now) – Stablemate of Lucas Cranach this fellow German import caught the eye winning the Doomben Cup during the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival, one to watch in the spring cups

Melbourne Cup Bets 2012

Too many people stick to just win, place or each-way bets when they bet on the Melbourne Cup. It is especially sad to see this on race day when the odds have become ridiculously short. When placing your bet this year, think beyond the 2012 Melbourne Cup odds for a straight-up win bet and consider placing an exotic bet.

True, it is harder to accurately pick a quinella, exacta, Melbourne Cup trifecta, or box bet. However, the upshot of these bets is that they pay much more than a standard win bet.

Try betting online if you think that placing a Melbourne Cup 2012 exotic bet is too difficult. Online betting sites are designed with ease of use in mind, and most beginners understand how online betting interfaces work within a couple of minutes.
