TAB has today opened the remaining Group One features of the Spring Carnival and all the usual suspects are at the top of the betting markets.
Anamoe is favourite for the Winx Stakes – the first Group One of the racing season – at $3.50 while there’s a three-way tie at the top of betting for the Memsie Stakes with Snapdancer, Tofane and Western Empire all installed at $6.
Some of the highlights from these markets are:
- Anamoe and Zaaki fighting out favouritism for the George Main as $4.50 equal favs
- Golden Eagle winner Im Thunderstruck ($8) being equal favourite for the Makybe Diva Stakes
- Boom sprinter Marabi ($6) at the top of the market for the Moir Stakes
- Dual Group One winner Forbidden Love ($6) heading the market for The Invitation
- Zaaki being favourite for the Underwood Stakes and TAB Turnbull Stakes (at $3.50 and $4.50 respectively)
