Randwick longshot well backed

Punters have sensationally backed former South African galloper Seventh Rock to win tomorrow’s Lightning Handicap at Randwick.

Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said some spirited betting had forced the price of the entire from $61 to $21.

“We had one punter back it to win $10,000 as soon as markets opened and it’s been a steady stream since.”

“While the horse may have been disappointing since hitting our shores, there was merit in his last run and reports are strong that David Payne has turned this bloke around.”

The Alan Denham trained Youthful Jack is Sportingbet Australia’s Lightning Handicap favourite at $3.50.
