Promising three year old Katsu is odds on with Ladbrokes.com.au for the feature race at Sandown this afternoon, the Bel Esprit Stakes (1000m).

The Grahame Begg trained gelding has been dominant his past two and with fresh legs, looks really well placed in a thin Stakes race. $2.05 was the opening price and has been crunched, into $1.85.

Invincible Caviar resumes and is on the second line of betting at $4.20. Next best is SA raider Taunting at $7 and they are the lone runners at single figures, with Sartorial Splendor at $11 on the next line of betting.
