Fluttered.

Makybe Diva galloped into history and won the Melbourne Cup for the third time in a row today.

And we had $30 ($15 for the win, $15 for a place) on her, plus another $30 on the horse that came 3rd - Xcellent - after a customer gave me a hot tip. So we made $120 in pure profit! I'm pretty stoked, I've never won anything more than a $2 Scratchie.

I can really understand how gambling can become addictive. Good thing the Melbourne Cup only comes around once a year.
