It’s been a while since Black Caviar was priced at $1.50 to win anything but that’s the price the undefeated super mare finds herself at with online bookmaker sportsbet to be the 2012/13 Australian Racehorse of the Year.
In what is a budding sibling rivalry, Black Caviar faces her biggest opposition from half-brother All Too Hard, who’s into $3.00 to win the crown after claiming his fourth G1 of the season on Saturday.
It’s A Dundeel ($7.00), recently retired Pierro ($26) and Appearance ($81) are the other runners in the market but it’s clear it’s a two horse race.
“We’re not sure how Christmas lunch will go should All Too Hard take out the gong. Perhaps a bon bon will settle any differences? At the end of the day, it’s hard to see him getting the award ahead of the mighty mare but the fat lady hasn’t started warming her vocal chords yet,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
