Big bet for Allez Wonder in Caulfield Cup

The odds of Bart Cummings winning a seventh Caulfield Cup have shortened dramatically in the last 24 hours as punters have backed all three of his chances at Sportingbet Australia.

Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said Toorak winner Allez Wonder had shortened from $14 to $11 as big money arrived while Viewed and Roman Emperor had also been well backed.

“Allez Wonder has attracted the bulk of support including one bet of $130,000 to $10,000,” said Sullivan.

“But there’s also been good money for both Viewed and Roman Emperor at double figure odds.

“Bart is the Cups king and punters think can break his Caulfield Cup drought tomorrow.”

Sportingbet Australia is also offering a market on whether or not either Anthony or Bart Cummings will supply a placegetter with punters backing the yes option in from $2.00 into $1.90.

“It may be a dozen years since the Cummings name has figured on the honour roll of placegetters but punters are certainly confident that between them they can end the drought this year,” Sullivan said.
