Off the back of an eye catching effort at Bendigo, Floating Artist is favourite with Ladbrokes.com.au for the Hawkesbury Cup (1600m) this Saturday.
The Maher/Eustace trained gelding hadn’t raced since the 2021 Melbourne Cup but returned with purpose at Bendigo when a close up fourth and looks suited up in trip. Opened $4.60 and sits at $4.40.
New Mandate is $6.50 to $8 but sits on the second line of betting, while the big early firmer has been Just Folk at $9, in from $16, and that price will continue to firm in if the track cops rain.
