Punters with online bookmaker sportsbet have wagered 20 times the money on Atlantic Jewel to take out Saturday’s Underwood Stakes than the next best supported runner.
And it’s not reigning Melbourne Cup favourite Puissance De Lune that is the second best backed runner, it is It’s A Dundeel at $11.
Atlantic Jewel remains the red-hot favourite at $1.50 for the Caulfield Group 1, ahead of PDL, who continues to drift after drawing the car park earlier in the week, who’s out to $7.00.
“We’re bracing ourselves for even bigger moves for Atlantic Jewel, who is ideally drawn in barrier seven. PDL had a shocker at the draw so it’s not too much of a surprise to see more support for It’s A Dundeel,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sea Moon has tightened from $15 into $14 after his luckless first-up run, while little support has come for big guns Foreteller ($19), Green Moon ($26) and Happy Trails ($34).
