Dual Group 1 winner Malaguerra will jump from the outside barrier, but remains the best backed for Saturday’s C.F. Orr Stakes at Caulfield.
- Winx firms into $1.15 to win her 14th consecutive race in the Apollo Stakes at Randwick on Saturday.
- Chautauqua $2.30 favourite and best backed to resume a winner at Caulfield in the Rubiton Stakes.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au opened Malaguerra and Black Heart Bart as equal favourites, but Malaguerra has been singled out by punters and is outright top pick on $3.80.
Black Heart Bart is firm second favourite on $4.00 followed by Lucky Hussler ($6.50) and Divine Prophet ($9.50).
“The two favourites will jump from the outside barrier in the Orr, but they remain the only horses punters want. Malaguerra has edged ahead in popularity, but there’s no guarantee he will stay on top as Black Heart Bart also has a lot of admirers,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne.
