Mugatoo has impressed in two Australian starts, each resulting in wins, and punters think he can make it 3/3 in the Canberra Cup (2000m) on Monday.
The Kris Lees trained import gave them an absolute galloping lesson in winning on the Kenso last start and down on the minimum from gate one, he’s very likeable hence why he’s been backed as if unbeatable in today’s Cup and is now the $2.10 short priced favourite after a handful of scratchings.
Eastender is $4.40 out from $4.20 with that support for Mugatoo but remains the clear second favourite in the race.
Punters have backed one at decent odds, last start Randwick winner Think It Over who is into $16, after opening up at $18.
