Amazing Dream the firmer for Hunter Cup

CHAMPION mare Amazing Dream has been the most significant mover with TAB since last night’s Hunter Cup barrier draw.

The Nathan Purdon-trained daughter of Bettor’s Delight came up with barrier eight – inside the second line – at Tabcorp Park Melton for this Saturday night’s feature, meaning she will follow out the even money favourite in King Of Swing.

Punters immediately zeroed in on the multiple Group One winning mare, with TAB offering up $5.50 about her chances from the draw but that price lasted 30 seconds. Astute customers were quick to take the price and strong support has now seen her firm into $4.80.

King Of Swing initially opened up $1.85 but is now out to $2 while Lochinvar Art has been solid at the $6.50 since drawing gate six.

Prior to the barrier draw when the market was still ‘All In’, punters could have secured $14 about Amazing Dream.

She is responsible for just over half the early investment on the race since the barrier draw.
