There is at times comfort in knowing that somebody stands to lose more than we do if our pick crumbles. But Kutchinsky does look like a good thing.
RACING: $40,000 BET ON KUTCHINSKY
Derby favourite Kutchinsky has shortened again after some massive bets were struck on the Tony Noonan trained gelding at Sportingbet Australia.
The Grand Prix winner has shortened from $3.00 to $2.70 since Friday and Sportingbet CEO Michael Sullivan said he had been the only one punters had wanted to back.
“We took a bet of $40,000 at $3.00 and that started a rush of money with punters snapping up the $2.80 and $2.70 as well,” Sullivan said.
“He isn’t a horse that will be too adversely affected by a bad barrier either as he will get back anyway so I can only see him continuing to shorten until Saturday.”
Sullivan said some Sportingbet punters were sitting pretty after snapping up $16 about Kutchinsky early in May.
“We took one bet of $30,000 to $2000 and another to win $10,000 so those punters would be thrilled with the price they secured,” he said.
New Zealander The Hombre is on the second line of betting at Sportingbet at $5.00 ahead of the Bart Cummings trained Landlord at $5.50 and Fieldmaster at $6.00.
