Support is slowly building for hometown hero Buffering to win Saturday’s Doomben 10,000.
Neglected initially ‘The Buff’ is starting to attract admirers with online bookmaker Sportsbet. Buffering shares favouritism with Rebel Dane on $4.00.
“After a quiet couple of days we are finally starting to see some money come in for Buffering. Punters have probably been biding their time until tomorrow’s barrier draw, if he draws well he could take outright favouritism,’’Sportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne said.
Rebel Dane is the best backed runner, Knoydart ($9.00) has plenty of admirers, but another local hope, Spirit Of Boom ($5.50) is unwanted.
10,000th reason for punters to bet with Sportsbet.com.au – if your horse finishes 2nd or 3rd, we’ll refund your bet.
