why option expiry should be extended, page-13

It's 3 months before the running of the 2013 Melbourne cup and they name the runners. Gee that horse, called "Pathfinder", is not a bad bet at 100 to 1. So i call my bookie, His name is "Commsec". I put on a few grand thinking it could be "well" worth it. Over time she is coming along with a couple of good wins and i'm getting excited. Gonna make a fortune. But a week before the big one, mother nature comes along and gives her a dose of the runs "oily" with a lot of "gas". She slows up a bit, and her fitness "declines". Bugger it, it's not my fault, so 5 minutes before the race i'll ask the stewards to give her a 100 metre head start. I don't want to lose all my money. If they give her a head start i'll at least have a chance of still making my fortune.

Good luck oppie holders. There is still a few months to go
