It’s all one way traffic with Ladbrokes.com.au for the feature race at Ascot this evening, the Railway Stakes (1600m).

Light Infantry Man broke his run of outs down under when spanking them at Flemington on Oaks Day with J Mac aboard and he sticks with him for this Group l. He has been smashed in betting the last 24 hours and is now at $3.70 with online betting sites.

Belclare opened $7 and was at $4.50, but the push for the favourite has seen her ease out to $7. The firmer has been Port Lockroy, who is $15 to $8.50.
