A full book of seven rides at Canterbury has Hugh Bowman in the box seat to claim the Sydney metropolitan jockeys’ premiership.
Bowman leads Brenton Avdulla, who has six mounts, by half a win going into tomorrow’s meeting. Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has Bowman as $1.30 to take the title ahead of Avdulla $3.60.
In Melbourne, premiership frontrunner Craig Williams ($1.25) has eight rides at Sandown tomorrow and is two clear of Beau Mertens ($4.00).
“With just two meetings to go in the season it can’t get any closer in the Sydney and Melbourne title races. Bowman and Williams have the better book of rides ahead of their respective rivals, but Avdulla and Mertens are not going to lie down,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Christian Jantzen.
