On what looks a tough meeting at Doomben this Saturday, punters believe they have found the good thing in the feature, the Brisbane Handicap (1600m).
Crack Me Up, a Liam Birchley trained four year old, has been outstanding in two runs this time in, the latest being a dominant win in the Recognition a fortnight back. He is heading towards and punters think he will get there via a win here. He has been $2.35 to $2.30 and could well start odds on.
He absolutely dominates the market, with the next best being Zahspeed at $7.50, followed by Cantbuybetter at $8.00 and Hopfgarten at $9.00, out from $8.50.
There has been nibbles at odds for both Frespanol, Emphasis, San Telmo and even the rank outsider Friendly Dragon, who has been $126 in from $151.
