Sportingbet Australia punters are only interested in Karuta Queen for tomorrow’s Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said Neville Layt’s flying filly had been backed in from $3.50 to $3.30 earlier in the week with more money arriving today knocking her quote into $3.00.
“We took bets of $10,000 and $600 at $3.50 after the barrier draw,†said Sullivan.
“Plenty more has arrived this morning including two $5000 bets at $3.30 with no money to speak of for any other runner.â€
Sullivan said despite the backing he was still prepared to risk Karuta Queen.
“She has looked exceptional to date but she steps up 200 metres on a heavy track at her first start for six weeks,†Sullivan said.
“If you add that Tommy Berry has not ridden on this track before I’m happy to lay her at the sort of odds on offer.â€
