Magic Millions 3yo winner, Torio’s Quest, has been backed to win over $400,000 with Sportingbet Australia to take out the Doncaster Mile.
Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said the Brett Partelle trained gelding had shortened from $61 to $26 on the back of some huge bets.
“We took one bet of $300,000 to $5000 each way plus there have been other punters back him to win $30,000 and $20,000,†Sullivan said.
“His win in the Magic Millions was outstanding after getting back from a terrible draw and making tremendous ground on a track that suited the front runners.
“That win certainly gave every indication the step up to the mile would suit and he looks to be one of a number of three year olds with a genuine chance in the Doncaster.â€
Hobartville winner Ilovethiscity has also shortened from $41 to $18 following his impressive win on Saturday.
“There had been some good money for Ilovethiscity to win the Doncaster before the weekend at $41 and the money has kept coming since then too,†Sullivan said.
More Joyous retains favouritsm for the Doncaster at $4.00 with Sportingbet following her win in the Futurity ahead of Whobegotyou at $8.00.
