Online bookmaker sportsbet believes imported stayer Kellini will handle the seven day back-up and win Saturday’s Sydney Cup at Randwick.
Kellinni has been installed as the $3.70 favourite for the Group 1 following his impressive win in last weekend’s JRA Plate, ahead of Maluckyday ($5.00) and Tremec ($10).
“Kellinni will handle the short gap between runs without a problem. He only had three days between runs last year before he finished fourth in the Melbourne Cup. The horse and the Chris Waller yard are flying so he deserves his place at the top of the markets,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sportsbet.com.au has already posted markets on all the Randwick majors for this Saturday and Kiwi Its A Dundeel is the shortest priced favourite of the day, opening $1.25 in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes, a mile ahead of second pick Silent Achiever at $11.
Gai Waterhouse will be hoping to break her Randwick drought with More Joyous in the All Aged Stakes. More Joyous ($2.50) is set for a great clash with All Too Hard, who’s second pick at $2.80, while Epaulette is a live chance at $5.00.
Sires Produce winner Guelph is at $1.90 to take the Champagne Stakes, but could be in for a fight against Fast N Rocking ($5.50), Scandiva ($6.00) and Criterion ($6.50).
