Two Kiwi horses left in Melbourne Cup

From Morning Report, 8:36 am on 7 November 2017

Today the fastest horse over 3.2 kilometres will win just under 4 million New Zealand dollars at the Melbourne Cup. This year there's only two New Zealand horses left in the race after the nine-year-old Who Shot the Barman was scratched due to a high temperature. But all eyes are on the five-year-old gelding Humidor, which is on the same odds as last year's winner Almandin and has drawn barrier three for today's race. To talk about the form and what we can expect, we're joined by TAB Spokesperson Mark Stafford.
