The track bias and slow tempo beat Galaxy Raider when racing over the mile on Ballarat Cup Day and Sportsbet.com.au punters are keen on him to redeem himself in the Cafe Adamo Handicap (1700m) this Saturday at Flemington.
The Greg Eurell trained galloper was a dominant winner at Sale prior to racing at Ballarat where he chased hard down the entire straight but just failed to pick up Dollar For Dollar who ha scome out of the race. On an even playing ground, Galaxy Raider looks the one to beat and the punters agree. He opened $2.20 and was crunched into $1.85, and is now into $1.60 with the aid of the scratching.
The horse that has been met with support at odds is last start Ballarat maiden winner First Amendment, who has been solid at $21. Lotza Focus ($26-$14) has also had admirers and outside that, everything else is on the slide. Expect Galaxy Raider to start even shorter if the money continues.
