Tasmania’s front-running equine cult hero The Cleaner has captured the imagination of the punting public, who have backed him from $101 into his current quote of $15 since September 6.
“In terms of ticket numbers, we’ve written four times more bets for The Cleaner compared to the favourite Fawkner and he is our worst result by a six-figure sum,” Sportingbet’s Andrew Brown said.
“Along with his trainer, they are the ultimate Cox Plate fairytale story and every punter in Australia wants to play a part in it.”
Irish galloper Adelaide has taken over as Sportingbet’s second worst result courtesy of the horse being smashed by serious punters over the past few days.
“We took a bet of $5,000 at $9 for Adelaide on Friday and another $10,000 eachway at $7.50 on Sunday.”
“The money for Adelaide has been relentless and there’s a very good chance now that he will start favourite on the day.”
Adelaide is now into $5.50 outright second favouritism at Sportingbet in front of Fawkner ($4.25) and Sacred Falls ($6).
