His next ride was 25/1 this morning and now 4/1 hahaha, now that's unders!
Hong Kong punter's had been fair dinkum smashing Ryan Moore - but think that tide is turning towards Frankie Dettori.
On a different note thought Cross Counter was huge. First three home were basically 1,2,3 in the run over 4000 metres.
Some pluggers in the race that we've seen here Thomas Hobson and Circle Of Gold they'd be running the same speed after 10,000 metres. They can run all day but not much kick some of them.

That first one as you say Slip firmed right in and later Star Catcher was 10/1 on the UK line this morning and went off around 9/2.
The Melbourne punter's give him heaps! Some real funny comments were called out to Dettori and Shane Dye at Flemington many years ago, they didn't care at all.
Also, I'm hoping Cross Counter returns for the Melbourne Cup. By him not winning the Ascot Gold Cup and only running 4th...the door is certainly open to return. Should only get 56kg to 56.5kg, that's a winnable weight for a horse of his calibre.

When Dettori went for home a mixture of a roar and a hush willing him on, the hush was from the bookies!
Those 30 horse fields - sometimes two seperate races going on at once when they split.

His trifecta in the purple and white colours paid well over 8k.
Dettori proved another thing last night - hoops into their 40s and 50s can mix it with the best of them. He's 48.
Only one of his four winners ran favourite.
We put man on the moon in 1969 ( falcon had just started high skool ) but in the frontier of 2019 and beyond Tabcorp ( after - 'we'll look into it') still has no system in place for tote betting on fields of 25 or more.
Runners also miss starts in Melbourne Cups because no emergencies can be named.
Wouldn't credit with todays technology that it's been flung into the too hard basket.

Stats at the track and distance are irrelevant if we can’t see their form for those races

Hong Kong tote betting in full swing...amazing pool sizes.
