Betfair or TAB for the 2010 Melbourne Cup

2010 Melbourne Cup betting markets at Betfair on September 1st are clearly superior than the odds offered by Victoria’s Supertab and if you plan to have a bet on our greatest race this year then make sure it’s at Betfair and not the TAB or it will cost you money.

Bart Cumming’s gallopers So You Think $24, Faint Perfume $23 and Dariana $27 are all great value on Betfair at the moment as they are currently paying $14, $16 and $14 respectively at the TAB at time of writing.

2009 Melbourne Cup winner Shocking is around $13 on the TAB and you can back him for $24 at Betfair. That’s almost double the price of the TAB and the reason why smart punters have a Betfair account and reap the rewards with the great odds available every day of the year.

Why would you ever bet on the TAB when Betfair prices are so much better?

Check out Betfair odds below for the 2010 Melbourne Cup compared to the TAB at time of writing and it’s plain to see why smart punters have a Betfair account and you can have one too right now by clicking here.

Can Shocking back up and win the Melbourne Cup for a second successive year? Not many horses have been able to do it in the past and if you think Shocking is up against it this year then you can Lay him to lose for $23 on Betfair at the moment.
