Preferment is yet to win a race, but punters expect a breakthrough in Saturday’s VRC Derby at Flemington.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au reports Preferment ($5.00) has received more support than $3.00 favourite, Spring Champion Stakes winner, Hampton Court.
“There’s not a lot between them, but Chris Waller’s Preferment is the best backed runner. It is a little surprising as Hampton Court is a Group 1 winner, but punters love backing Waller in these big races,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Christian Jantzen.
Moonee Valley Vase winner Moonovermanhattan ($7.00) is steady and money has come for Magicool ($15 into $12).
