Wagering with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, suggests punters think Dissident is a pretender. Dissident is $4.00 favourite for the Caulfield Stakes, but has received very little support.
He heads Sacred Falls ($4.60) and Fawkner ($5.00), who are in the top bracket of Cox Plate betting. Crackerjack King ($14) has admirers and Happy Trails ($7.50) is unwanted.
“This is a mini Cox Plate and it really is Dissident’s acid test. He is yet to win at 2000m and punters are avoiding him like the plague. Sacred Falls and Happy Trails are also not popular,”sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson said.
In a wide betting Toorak Handicap Sydney mare Arabian Gold is $5.50 favourite ahead of Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes winner Trust In A Gust ($6.00). Solicit has been well supported and has firmed into $6.00 equal second favourite.
