Outsider Midsummer Sun has been the focus of solid backing for Saturday’s Villiers Stakes at Randwick.
Midsummer Sun has been well supported, including one bet of $1000 each way at $34. Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has turned the seven-year-old’s price into $21. There has also been money for Pelicano ($21) and Monton ($34).
“The trend of looking for outsiders continues. One punter has had a big crack at Midsummer Sun, Pelicano is a firmer and Monton is also well in the mix with punters,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Estonian Princess ($6.00) has her share of admirers, but favourite Sir Moments ($4.60) is friendless.
