Birdman is a clear favourite with betting agencies for the Australian Cup (2000m) this Saturday at Flemington.

The Chris Waller trained galloper was dominant in the Peter Young and looks primed for 2000m. He sits at $3.60.

Tom Kitten is at $4.40 on the second line of betting, with Pride Of Jenni at $4.60. Leica Lucy is at $6.50 and is being kept safe with top wagering sites.
