Punters are avoiding Canterbury Stakes favourite First Seal in favour of Kermadec.
First Seal is $2.80 favourite, with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, for the Canterbury Group 1.
Kermadec, rated a $6.00 chance in his first run since last year’s Cox Plate, is attracting all the interest.
Second favourite Our Boy Malachi, who has eased from $3.00 out to $3.30, is more popular than First Seal.
“She’s holding her place at the top of betting, but First Seal has hardly been touched by punters. Kermadec holds seven times more money and is the best supported runner ahead of Our Boy Malachi,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne.
