Melbourne Cup Odds and Tips: Puissance De Lune Out?
October 30th, 2013 by Pom de TurfOne-time Melbourne Cup favourite Puissance De Lune could be out of the race after a Cox Plate run that ended in injury. He’ll be assessed by trainer Darren Weir and owner Gerry Ryan, but there is a feeling that Puissance De Lune is a horse that has been hard to get up to race fitness for a while, and the bookies’ response has been decisive.
From being the one-time favourite, Puissance De Lune is nowhere to be seen today, and the favourite spot has been taken by Gai Waterhouse’s Fiorente, who’s now the horse to beat come November 5th. In stark contrast to Puissance De Lune’s Cox Plate fortunes, Fiorente came through the race in third place, and with an enhanced reputation that has meant little or no movement on his Melbourne Cup odds, which are $6.50 right now on Sportsbet. He’s ahead of Mount Athos at $9.00, Hawkspur at $10.00 and Dandino at $11.00 – get all your Melbourne Cup odds 2013 by following the link!
