Who won Dr Mumbo’s media Melbourne Cup?
Dr Mumbo congratulates GroupM chairman John Steedman on picking the winner of the Melbourne Cup with Protectionist.
He was the only one of more than 20 media big hitters Dr Mumbo asked who picked Protectionist to win, although honourable mentions go to: Seven’s Tim Worner, SBS’s Michael Ebeid, Atomics212’s Barry O’Brien, MediaCom’s Mark Pejic, Ogilvy’s David Fox and Bauer’s Deborah Thomas who all had the German horse in their top three.
Sadly for Steady, as he is known to most of the industry, didn’t win anything (other than of course, the glory of Dr Mumbo’s Cup guide).
He tells Dr Mumbo he is in LA at the moment and “the person I asked to put some money on for me, didn’t. He owes me a few bottles of wine! A good run.”
