Punters with online bookmaker sportsbet believe Destiny’s Kiss is on target for a hat-trick of wins in tomorrow’s Grafton Cup.
The Joe Pride trained four-year-old has been backed into outright favouritism, firming from $5.00 into $4.50, after sharing top spot with Caloundra Cup winner Zennista ($5.00).
“Pride has this horse flying, he’s won his last two in Sydney and was very strong in the Winter Cup at his latest outing. The Cup looks very open but punters have really rallied behind Destiny’s Kiss,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Brisbane trained Raeburn ($34) has also had solid backing along with Violia Ici ($9.00), Reuben Percival ($10) and Peal Of Bells ($17).
Sportsbet.com.au will refund punters their bet on the Grafton Cup if their selection finishes second.
