AI backs Athabascan for the Cup

The robots have joined in with the punters to have their say for this year’s Melbourne cup. AI algorithms picked Athabascan as their “best value” bet for the race. We won’t argue with the machines… especially when they’re backing us.

“We’ve once again handed our future robot overlords the full suite of data for this year’s Cup, sectionals, benchmarks, ratings, and historical profiles, and asked them to crunch the numbers, produce their own 100% markets, and name both their top selection and best value overlay.”

Gemini and Grok have tipped Athabascan saying:

“The disparity between his proven 3200m performance rating and his current market price is too great to ignore. He is the clear overlay in the race. This is an each-way bet for serious value punters.”

And: “Athabascan barrier 1, O’Shea/Charlton combo hot and he stays all day. Could pinch it if the pace collapses.”

Here’s hoping their predictions can deliver!
