Gerald Ryan’s star filly Melito has opened the clear favourite in Saturdays Sky Racing Winter Stakes at Eagle Farm, after a fantastic run to finish 2nd behind Black Piranha in the Stradbroke Handicap we think she will be very hard to beat.The 3yo filly (Melito) has opened as the $2.80 favourite to win Saturdays headline Group 1 race at Eagle Farm, after running second to Black Piranha in the Stradbroke Handicap this looks to be a very winnable race if she is switched on.
Melito holds the first line of betting by herself but Beaded and Set For Fame share the second line of betting with both runners opening at $4.50 on TAB’s fixed odds.
It looks to be a fantastic race for the Fillies and Mares and there looks to be a out 7-8 horses with good chances of taking out the first prize of $320,000.
The race jumps at 3:47pm Saturday June 26th.
