Punters are in disagreement with Sportsbet on who will win the Melbourne Cup today.

Yucatan is the drifting $6.00 favourite and has attracted 12% of wagers from punters who have Magic Circle as their top pick.

Magic Circle is currently the best backed runner with 14% and on the second line of betting at $8.00 ahead of Cross Counter on $9.00.

The third best supported horse for the race that stops a nation is Marmelo on $13.

“We have Yucatan as the one to beat today but the punters are spellbound for Magic Circle with plenty of interest for Marmelo in what could be a very open race,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne.
