Hitotsu and Regal Lion are the two Ladbrokes.com.au punters want when it comes to the Australian Derby (2400m) this afternoon at Randwick.

Hitotsu hasn’t raced since the Australian Guineas when resuming and getting the job done in outstanding fashion. Opened $3 and remains there after touching $3.80.

Best backed outside him has clearly been Regal Lion, the eye catcher from the Tulloch on Monday. Opened $7 on Tuesday and is now a clear second favourite at $3.50.

War Eternal has had specking at odds, into $15 from $21.
