27/06/11

So You Think is evens (from 5-4) favourite for Saturday's Coral-Eclipse, after the sponsor laid a £340,000 bet on the ex-Australian superstar this afternoon. Workforce is 13-8 (from 6-4) second favourite, with Snow Fairy 13-2 (from 6-1).

"Following the five day entries, we initially made So You Think the 5-4 favourite ahead of Workforce based on his superior ten-furlong form, and one London-based account punter in particular agreed with us, and his £340,000 wager saw the dual-Cox Plate winner's odds shorten to evens," said Coral's David Stevens.

MansionBet has also opened betting on several Coral-Eclipse card supporting races, and make Triple Aspect 5-1 favourite for the Coral Charge (5f Group 3 Sprint), while Green Destiny is the 6-1 market leader for the Coral Challenge (1m H'cap).
