Flemington gears up for the prestigious Group 1 Newmarket Handicap, featuring a top-tier lineup including Imperatriz, Private Eye, and Bella Nipotina.
Notable jockeys Damian Lane, Jamie Kah, and Mick Dee are set to pilot Ruthless Dame, Cylinder, and Magic Time, respectively.
Despite the caliber of contenders, a full field isn’t expected perhaps with Champion sprinter Imperatriz scaring a few rivals away? Racing Victoria’s chief handicapper, David Hegan, is set to reveal the weights today, with Imperatriz and Private Eye likely to top the scales.
Imperatriz tops the market with top betting apps at $2.30 with Espiona on the second line of betting at $6.00 followed by Magic Time at $7.00 and Private Eye at $7.50.
