commented on HARRISON DRIFTS BUT STILL HAS THE VOICE | | Caterina Torres might be the best
backed contestant to win The Voice
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au but it’s Harrison
Craig who continues to head the
betting despite drifting from $2.50
to $3.00.
After he was saved by Ricky in last
night’s first live final, Luke
Kennedy is now second favourite
with his odds shortening sharply
from $15 to $4.50.
Kiyomi Vella has also been a big
mover, in from $17 to $8.00, while
Torres has drifted from $5.00 to
$11.
“Harrison has been the favourite
since day one. The chances of Delta
and Seal having another run in are
at short odds but not as short as
Harrison winning The Voice!” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Brigitte Lowsby.
Seal remains the favourite to be
the winning coach at $2.20, ahead
of Ricky ($2.35), with Joel and
Delta on the drift, priced at $6.00
and $7.00 respectively.

commented on YOUR SONG IN TUNE FOR DOOMBEN | | Punters believe smart
three-year-old Your Song will
retire on a winning note by taking
out the Doomben 10,000 on
Saturday.
Your Song has been well supported
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au and dominates the
pre-barrier draw markets as a $2.40
favourite.
Rain Affair who chased home Your
Song in the BTC Cup is $6.50, while
local hope Buffering, who blew the
start in the Eagle Farm bog, is
$4.50 second pick.
“It’s not surprising punters have
stuck with Your Song, he gapped
them by five lengths in the BTC
Cup. It’s hard to see anything
turning the tables, but there were
excuses for Buffering and he’ll be
better suited on top of the
ground,’’ sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson said.
Darley runner Epaulette could be a
firmer if he draws well in
Wednesday’s barrier draw. The
three-year-old has been freshened
for this and is rated a $7.50
chance.

commented on DEMONS SPIRIT SEES SPOON ODDS DRIFT | | Melbourne may not have won over the
weekend, but their improved
performance has seen their odds to
claim the wooden spoon drift from
$2.75 to $4.25 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
GWS remain clear favourites for the
spoon after firming from $1.40 to
$1.28, whilst despite losing to the
Gold Coast, the Western Bulldogs
have drifted from $10 to $12.
In flag betting, Hawthorn have
firmed further from $3.25 to $3.20
over the weekend. Collingwood are
also in from $11 to $9.00 after
their upset win over Geelong, who
have remained steady at $3.75.
The log jam of teams trying to make
the top 8 has also been reflected
in the betting market, with teams
such as West Coast ($1.60),
Richmond ($1.60), Carlton ($1.80)
and Adelaide ($2.30) all still in
the hunt.
In round 9 betting, Collingwood
have firmed from $1.75 into $1.62,
while Sydney are out from $2.00 to
$2.20 for the big Friday night
clash. If the match is a close one
punters could still be winners
either way, with sportsbet.com.au
refunding head to head bets if the

commented on MALONEY THE MAN TO END THE BLUES | | James Maloney is the man to end the
State of Origin pain for New South
Wales fans according to punters
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au, who’ve backed the
Sydney Rooster from $1.95 into
$1.40 to be the Blues five-eighth
for game one of the 2013 series.
The $1.95 outsider on Monday
morning, Maloney now heads the
betting, bumping Todd Carney from
the top of the market. Carney has
eased from $1.85 out to $2.00.
Maloney has attracted 50 percent of
the money but doesn’t seem over the
line just yet, with 35 percent
going on Carney. A handful of bets
have also come in for John Sutton
($9.00 out to $15) as well as three
$1 wagers on Freddy Fittler at
$1001.
“With a string of excellent
performances against top
opposition, punters have finally
determined that James Maloney is
the man for the job. And what a job
it is!” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
In NRL premiership winner betting,
five of the top six spots are made
up of New South Wales based clubs,
with the Rabbitohs ($3.75)
competition favourites, ahead of
the Storm ($4.50), Roosters
($5.00), Manly ($8.00), Bulldogs

commented on WATSON TIPPED TO STAR AT THE G | | He may no longer be favourite for
the Brownlow Medal, but Jobe Watson
looks set for a best on ground
performance during the Essendon v
Richmond Dreamtime at the G match,
priced at $5.50 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
the Yiooken Award.
Tigers gun midfielder Trent Cotchin
is seen as Richmond’s best hope for
the award at $6.00 followed closely
by teammate Brett Deledio at $6.50.
Brendon Goddard and Dustin Martin
are also well and truly in the
running at $9.00, with Dyson
Heppell, Jack Riewoldt and David
Zaharakis all next in the market at
$12.
In match betting, money has been
fairly even for both teams, however
the Tigers have firmed from $2.20
to $2.05. Essendon remain
favourites however are out from
$1.60 to $1.77.
“This looms as the most interesting
match of the round and already
punters are split down the middle.
Essendon are favourites for now,
but the prices could be much closer
by the time the ball is bounced,”

commented on PUNTERS NOT CONVINCED BUDGET WILL SAVE LABOR | | Punters have seemingly taken Wayne
Swan at his word that the budget
will return to surplus in
2016/2017, with the price set by
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
for that to occur firming from
$5.00 to $3.00 after last night’s
budget was handed down.
Regardless, it still appears a
return to surplus could be some
time away, with not before
2017/2018+ remaining the favourite
at $2.80.
The budget has seemingly done no
favours for Labor, with their price
to win the Federal Election
drifting from $7.00 to $8.00, while
at the same time the coalition have
firmed from $1.09 to $1.05.
The news looks equally daunting for
Swan himself, drifting from $1.90
to $2.35 to win his seat of Lilley.
The Coalition are firm favourites

Sportsbet.com.au has installed
David Jones as the $1.75 favourite

$2.00 outsider.

commented on HODGE FIRMS FOR BROWNLOW | | Despite Tom Lynch’s 10 goal haul
over the weekend, it looks unlikely
that any other player will get near
his individual effort this season,
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au pricing $1.70 that
no other player will kick a bag of
ten or more goals.
If any player is to get into double
digit goals, it looks most likely
to be Buddy Franklin priced at
$5.50 with Jack Riewoldt ($6.00),
Josh Kennedy ($7.00), Tom Hawkins
($9.00) and Travis Cloke ($9.00)
also in the market.
In Coleman Medal betting, Franklin
has firmed from $4.00 to $3.75,
however he is now equal favourite
with Jack Riewoldt who is also into
$3.75 from $6.00.
The Brownlow Medal also remains
open in betting, with Jobe Watson
the favourite at $5.50. Gary Ablett
is on the second line of betting at
$6.00, while Patrick Dangerfield
has firmed from $12 to $7.00.
Hawthorn skipper Luke Hodge has
been the biggest mover of the
round, in from $67 to $16. Prior to
the season he was priced at $201.
“Coming into the season Hodgey
looked to be caring a pretty big
knee injury. But the fact he is now
into $16 shows how good he has been
since his comeback and punters have
certainly noticed,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
“Buddy finally found some form in
front of goal but his quiet few
weeks could cost him in the long
run with Riewoldt continuing to
firm into equal favouritism.”

commented on MELBOURNE’S MONTH FROM HELL | | After losing to Gold Coast, things
don’t appear to be getting any
easier for Melbourne over the next
month, set to face Richmond,
Fremantle, Hawthorn and
Collingwood.
In what looms to be a month from
hell, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on which one of those games
will see them suffer their biggest
loss.
Unsurprisingly, current flag
favourites Hawthorn are tipped to
give them a flogging, priced at
$3.25. With their match against
Fremantle to be played in Perth,
the Dockers are also priced at
$3.25 to give the Demons their
biggest loss over the next month.
This week’s match against Richmond
has been priced at $3.50, while
their Queen’s Birthday match
against Collingwood is the outsider
in the market at $3.75.
“Things look set to go from bad to
worse for Melbourne, with their
away trip against Fremantle and
their clash against the Hawks
tipped to inflict even more pain,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
While the Demons still remain a
good chance to claim the wooden
spoon at $2.75, GWS are firm
favourites at $1.40.
In premiership betting the Hawks
have firmed from $3.75 to $3.25 to
remain flag favourites. However
with double the money bet on them
compared to Hawthorn, Geelong have
also firmed from $4.25 to $3.75.

commented on CHANNEL 10 NOW FAVOURITES TO BROADCAST RIO OLYMPIC | | After rumours that Channel 10 will
broadcast the 2014 Winter Olympics,
they have firmed into favouritism
to also show the 2016 Rio Olympics,

commented on WINNING FUTURE FOR FORETELLER | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
is predicting Chris Waller will win
another Group 1 at Doomben on
Saturday with Foreteller.
The leading Sydney trainer, who was
the dominant force over the Autumn
carnival, will saddle the $3.20
favourite for the Cup. The
six-year-old heads the market over
Lights Of Heaven ($3.50), who beat
Foreteller at their last meeting.
Lamasery, who finished just behind
the Hollindale placegetters is on
the next line of betting at $6.00,
with Manighar and Hippopus (both
$9.00) rounding out the top five in
the market.
“Lights Of Heaven had the edge on
Foreteller in the Hollindale
Stakes, but the Waller trained
horse had excuses. He was a long
way back and was finishing the race
off better than anything,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sportsbet.com.au reports good
support for both Your Song and
Epaulette in Doomben 10,000
betting. The three-year-old is
$3.20 favourite following his
sensational BTC Cup win, with
Epaulette on the third line at
$6.50. Local hope Buffering has
eased to $4.50 for the Group 1 on
Saturday week.

commented on SEAL SWIMMING, DELTA DOOMED ON THE VOICE | | They may not be getting along, but
it looks like Seal may have the
last laugh this season over Delta
Goodrem, with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au pricing $1.40 that
a member of his team will progress
further than anyone from Delta’s
team on The Voice.
Delta is an outsider to topple
Seal, priced at $2.75.
But if their tension continues to
be a problem Delta could the winner
in the long run, with Seal priced
at $3.00 not to return to the
series next season and Delta
looking likely to stick around at
$5.00.
“In the battles of the egos, Seal
would probably come out on top, but
we are tipping Delta will be the
one who sticks around longest,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun

commented on NOKIA SMARTPHONE UNLIKELY TO ADD MARKET SHARE | | Following the introduction of
Nokia’s $99 smart phone, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
opened betting on the company’s
expected smartphone market share
for quarter two of 2013.
After reporting a market share of
4.3% in Q1 and substantial net
losses, it seems unlikely that
there will be much movement with
between 4.0% - 4.9% leading the
betting at $2.20.
$2.50 is on offer to punters if
they think Nokia’s market share
will fall below 4%, while $4.00 is
available for their market share to
increase to between 5.0% - 5.9%.
The clear outsider is a market
share of 7% or over, priced at
$13.
“Nokia once ruled the mobile world,
but ironically now, people are not
connecting with them anymore and a
further fall from grace looks on
the cards according to our odds,”

sportsbet.com.au have this morning
jumped all over ANZ Bank having
Australia’s lowest variable
interest rate at the end of the
year after they cut their rate by
whopping 0.27 percent today.
As a result, ANZ has flown from the
$6.00 market outsider onto the
second line of betting at $2.35 to
have the lowest rate at years end.
They’re now just behind favourite
NAB, who are at $2.25, out from

Commonwealth Bank ($3.25 out to
$4.50) and Westpac ($4.50 out to
$6.00) have both ballooned in the

commented on SPECIAL ONE FAVOURITE TO TAKE OVER AT MAN UNITED | | Real Madrid’s Jose Mourinho is the
$2.20 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to be
the next manager of Manchester
United after Sir Alex Ferguson
announced his retirement tonight.
The biggest threat to the
self-anointed ‘Special One’ getting
the prized job seems to be Everton
manager David Moyes, who follows in
the betting at $2.50. The pair are
miles ahead of the rest of the
candidates – Jurgen Klopp is on the
third line of betting at $11.
In a who’s who of football
managers, the ageless Ryan Giggs
($26), former Barcelona manager Pep
Guardiola ($34), former United
captain Gary Neville ($41), former
Socceroos manager Guus Hiddink
($51), Arsenal manager Arsene
Wenger ($67), karate kid Eric
Cantona ($67), Chelsea’s Rafa
Benitez ($81) and Ferguson’s son
Darren ($251) are all included in
the market.
Western Sydney Wanderers and
Central Coast Mariners managers
Tony Popovic and Graham Arnold even
get a run, with the pair priced at
$501, while Melbourne Victory’s
Ange Postecoglu ($1001) and current
Socceroos manager Holger Osieck
($1501) bring up the rear.
“It’s the job that everyone wants
and the betting indicates Mourinho
is in the box seat. He has all the
necessary credentials to take over.
Just ask him,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
United are the $2.60 favourites to

instinctively right today, it
appears unlikely he’ll be as active
next month snapping up Australian
dollars, with the RBA tipped at
$1.15 to keep the cash rate on hold
at 2.75% come June 4th with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
A cut today of between 0.01 and
0.25% was priced at $2.55 at the
time of the announcement, with the
rate staying the same the short
priced favourite result at $1.19.
Another decrease between 0.01 and
0.25% is $3.75, a decrease between
0.26 and 0.50% is $21 and a big
decrease of 0.51% or more is an
outside chance at $51.
Any increase next month also looks
unlikely at $21.
“Today’s cut caught punters off

a repeat surprise is in store for

Moment Of Change, coming into the
Group 1 after a disappointing last
start effort in Sydney, was opened
favourite at $2.00, but was quickly
backed into $1.90.
“There is no doubt the gelding was
disappointing in Sydney, but the

Palmer might be onto something when
he said he might not get into
heaven but he will get into
Canberra, with the UAP leader
attracting solid punter support to
win the seat of Fairfax at
September’s federal election.
Palmer has firmed from $12 into
$9.00 after attracting 88 percent
of all money wagered on the
market.
He still faces a mammoth task to
pull off the upset though, with
LNP’s Ted O’Brien, who hasn’t
attracted a single bet, the $1.03
favourite. Candidates for the ALP
and Greens both remain at $26.
“Despite Clive attracting punter
support, the odds still indicate
that he’ll need some divine
intervention to win the seat of
Fairfax,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
UAP remains a $6.50 outsider to win
any lower house seats at the
election, with $1.10 on offer for
them to not win one.

Despite being yet to play a game,
Essendon’s Joe Daniher has
continued to be well backed and is
the fourth best backed player
overall, despite his long odds of
$51.
“O’Meara is once again favourite

commented on HANNEBERY AND HARTLETT BROWNLOW SMOKIES | | Jobe Watson remains the $5.00
favourite with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the
Brownlow, but just as Sydney’s Josh
Kennedy did last year, bolters such
as Travis Boak, Daniel Hannebery
and Hamish Hartlett are emerging as
dark horses to take out the
prestigious medal.
Boak has been the best backed out
of the trio and has firmed from
$150 at the start of the year to be
equal sixth favourite at $14.
Hannebery is also priced at $14
after starting the season at even
bigger odds of $201, while Hartlett
has also come in from $201, now
into $23.
“Looks like there were a few Port
fans who thought Boak and Hartlett
were set for a big year. But
Hannebery is the one the punters
got on at big odds and having been
best on ground the last two weeks,
he is now well and truly one of the
favourites,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Gary Ablett remains second
favourite but has drifted from
$7.00 to $9.00, while Trent Cotchin
is in the same boat after moving
from $8.00 to $10.
In round 7 betting news, all of the
early money has been on the Cats in
the match of the round against
Essendon. Geelong have firmed from
$1.75 to $1.64 over the weekend,
with the Bombers out from $2.00 to

to be ridden by champion jockey
Glen Boss, has been heavily backed
to win tomorrow’s South Australian
Derby, firming from $4.80 into
$4.00 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au this week.
If the trend continues he will push
Shoreham, who’s currently atop the
betting at $3.70 for favouritism in
the Morphettville Group 1.
“Hvasstan has received eight times
the amount of support than any
other runner. He’s the only horse
punters want and is one of the best
backed runners anywhere,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Elsewhere in the Derby, there’s
been solid backing for Gerontius
with the David Hayes trained
gelding firming from $13 into
$8.50, and also Molto Bene, who’s
into $13 from $17.
Sportsbet.com.au will refund
punters their bet on the SA Derby
if their selection runs second in
the race.
On the Gold Coast, the Peter Moody
trained Lights Of Heaven is solid a

his Queensland winter carnival

Saturday.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has Foreteller ($4.50) on the third
line of Hollindale Stakes betting
behind $2.70 favourite Lights Of
Heaven and Solzhenitsyn ($4.00).
Waller also has Danleigh ($13) and
Stout Hearted ($17) in the race.
“Waller took all before him during
the Sydney autumn and it looks like
he is going to be a force again in
Brisbane. Foreteller will have his
work cut out to beat the Peter
Moody trained Lights Of Heaven, but
anything Waller saddles has to be
respected,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“So far, Foreteller and Danleigh
have attracted the most punter
support and it’s head and shoulders
above any others so the Waller
factor is front and centre in
punters minds.”
Markets are up for all the major
races at the big Gold Coast
meeting, which marks the return of
Stradbroke hope Sizzling, a $3.30
favourite for the Guineas.
In Adelaide, Shoreham is an easing

commented on BRADLEY HILL TO RISE ABOVE THIS ROUND? | | While Port Adelaide’s Ollie Wines
remains the $2.50 favourite to win
the Rising Star awards, the
question remains, who will this
week’s nominee be?
Hawthorn’s Bradley Hill is a big
chance to get the nod according to
a market by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au, priced at the
$3.50 favourite to be nominated in
round 6.
After an impressive start to the
season, Jack Viney is next in the
market at $4.00, followed by Sam
Mayes ($5.00), Nick Vlastuin
($8.00) and Jake Stringer ($10).
“Guys like Hill, Mayes and Stringer
have put in a number of consistent
performances in a row, so unless
someone comes from left field and
puts in a blinder, it looks a safe
bet that this week’s nominee will
be coming from one of the top
hopes,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
In overall Rising Star betting,
Jaeger O’Meara has firmed from
$5.00 to $3.50 to be second
favourite behind Wines, while Hill
has also firmed from $9.00 to $8.00
to be third favourite.

commented on WHEN WILL THE EELS GET THAT WINNING FEELING? | | After getting ‘pantsed’ by
neighbours Penrith last round and
facing four teams currently in the
top eight in their next five games,
it’s a safe bet that there’s more
tough times ahead for the Parra
Eels.
So much so that online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on when Ricky Stuart’s men
will next win a match.
Round 8, where they host the
Cowboys, is the $2.75 favourite,
followed by round 9 ($3.00), round
10 ($5.50) and round 11 ($7.00) but
worryingly no more wins this year,
priced at $34, isn’t the biggest
outsider in betting.
“They Eels are currently $2.90
outsiders for their match against
the Cowboys this weekend and we’ve
already opened betting on round
nine and that sees them at $2.18
against the Broncos, so all in all
it makes for ominous reading for
Eels fans,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes.
The Eels have ballooned massively
across the major NRL betting
markets since the season started,
including drifting from $34 to $251
to win the Premiership and to make
the finals, $3.00 out to $10.

commented on NEWMAN, LIBS TO FOLLOW MAROONS WIN STREAK | | The Maroons have won seven straight
State of Origin series and another
Queenslander is at short odds to go
on a winning streak of his own with
Campbell Newman and the Queensland
Liberal Party priced at $1.13 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
to win the next state election.
Labor are next in the market at
$5.50, while the Greens ($26) have
more chance of winning the election
than either of the Katter Australia
Party and United Australia Party,
who are priced at $34 and $51
respectively.
“Despite everything that is going
on in Queensland right now, Newman
and the Liberals won the last
election by such a margin that
it’ll take his competitors some
time to turn it around,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
In other Queensland political news,
Dr. Theresa Craig has been
installed as the $3.00 favourite by
sportsbet.com.au to win
pre-selection to replace Barnaby
Joyce in the senate. In a tight
market, Barry O’Sullivan ($3.25),
Larry Anthony ($3.50), John Brent

commented on TEX COLEMAN BETS REFUNDED, THOMAS INTO $9.00 | | While Crows fans are upset with the
season ending injury to Taylor
Walker, those who backed him to win
the Coleman Medal with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au will
have some reason to smile today,
with the bookmaker refunding all
bets on the full forward to kick
the most goals this season.
Walker opened the market as second
favourite at $5.50 and was $12 when
he went down with his ACL injury
over the weekend.
“It was a freak accident and we
don’t think our punters should
suffer because of it. It’s a big
blow to Tex and the Crows, but at
least he now has more time to work
on his mullet,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
In Coleman betting news, Lindsay
Thomas has again been the big mover
after sitting on top of the goal
kicking table, in from $21 to
$9.00. He was $101 when the market
was first opened.
After a quiet weekend Buddy
Franklin is still the favourite,
but is out from $3.00 to $3.50
while Jack Riewoldt has also
drifted from $5.00 to $6.00.
Jobe Watson remains the Brownlow
favourite after firming from $6.00
to $5.00 while a solid performance
by Gary Ablett has also seen him
come in from $8.50 to $7.00.

now both priced at $1.90 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
to be New South Wales five-eighth
for game one of the 2013 State of
Origin series.
With Greg Bird drifting from $3.00
out to $7.00, Carney and Maloney
have firmed from $2.25 and $2.75
respectively and are now locked in
a two-horse race for the Blues
number 6 jersey.
“Maloney and Carney have attracted
the same level of punter support to

commented on GAY MARRIAGE REFERENDUM UNLIKELY SAYS BOOKIE | | Despite the call from independent
MP Tony Windsor, a referendum on
gay marriage in Australia this year
is unlikely to be a reality
according to a market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
No referendum in 2013 is the $1.40
favourite ahead of a referendum
taking place at $2.40.
But if the outsider gets up and a
referendum is held, the legalising
of gay marriage is the favoured
outcome at $1.53, with the public
not being in favour of gay marriage
the $2.40 outsider.
“It looks like Tony Windsor’s call
will fall on deaf ears but the
market does say that should there
be a referendum, the public is in
favour of legalising gay marriage,”

undefeated super mare finds herself
at with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to be the 2012/13
Australian Racehorse of the Year.
In what is a budding sibling
rivalry, Black Caviar faces her
biggest opposition from
half-brother All Too Hard, who’s
into $3.00 to win the crown after
claiming his fourth G1 of the
season on Saturday.
It’s A Dundeel ($7.00), recently
retired Pierro ($26) and Appearance

market but it’s clear it’s a two
horse race.
“We’re not sure how Christmas lunch
will go should All Too Hard take

will settle any differences? At the
end of the day, it’s hard to see
him getting the award ahead of the

commented on CROWS AND EAGLES TIPPED TO MISS FINALS ACTION | | After their shocking starts to the
year, the West Coast Eagles and
Adelaide Crows have gone from
premiership contenders to two of
the most disappointing teams of the
season, both now favoured by online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to miss
the finals.
After making last year’s
preliminary final, the Crows were
seen as a sure thing to make the
finals again after being priced at
$1.36 prior to the season. However
with Taylor Walker now injured,
they have drifted from $2.02 to
$2.40 over the weekend to make the
finals. They are now $1.50 to miss
the finals, and have dramatically
firmed from $251 to $41 to claim
the wooden spoon.
The news is equally grim for the
West Coast Eagles, drifting from
$6.00 to win the flag at the start
of the season to $21 after round 5.
The market also suggests their poor
start could also see them miss the
finals, priced at $1.85 to not make
the finals after being priced at
long odds of $4.00 at the start of
the year.
It’s a different story for the
undefeated Port Adelaide side, who
have firmed from $9.00 at the start
of the year to make the finals into
$2.10.
“It would have been very long odds
for any punter to tip that the
Crows and Eagles would be in danger
of not even making finals, while
the Power sit undefeated. But we
will still give massive odds for
any Crows fans to jump ship and
support the Power any time soon!”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
In round 6 betting, Essendon are
the shortest price of any team for
the year to date at $1.005 to beat
the Giants ($15), while Hawthorn
have firmed from $3.85 to $3.60 to
win the flag.

commented on CLICK FRENZY OR CLICK FAIL? | | Click Frenzy’s first online sale
was supposed to be the sale that
stopped the nation, however within
minutes of its launch the site
crashed and Click Frenzy quickly
became the sale that failed the
nation.
The organisers are confident they
will have better luck with the
‘Mother’s Day Frenzy’, and online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
framed a market on whether heavy
consumer traffic will crash the
site, again.
After part one of the ‘Mother’s Day
Frenzy’ last Tuesday survived the
influx of consumers, it appears
unlikely that the site will crash
tomorrow night for part two, with
‘No’ being the $1.20 favourite.
$4.00 is on offer if the site does
experience similar outages to last
November.
“It’s been over five months since
Click Frenzy crashed, so punters
have faith that the site will be
ready for tomorrows sale and they
will find their mum a gift at
bargain basement prices!” said

several current federal MPs and
Senators will jump ship and join
UAP before the election but a
market from online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au reckons that when

follow through.
No MPs or Senators defecting to UAP

“Clive seems adamant that a few MPs
and Senators will switch to UAP but
the market tells us there might be
a massive iceberg looming ahead
that he doesn’t know about!”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Despite all of his statements,
Palmer is yet to even register to
his party, with $1.50 on offer
he’ll register it before the

UAP looks unlikely to even win a
lower house seat as well, priced at

commented on GAI TO BREAK RANDWICK HOODOO? | | More Joyous is the horse most
likely to break Gai Waterhouse’s
duck on the new Randwick surface on
Saturday according to punters
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Yet to train a winner since the
track refurbishment, Waterhouse has
the champion mare as the $2.50
favourite for the All Aged Stakes
ahead of boom colt All Too Hard,
who has eased $2.75 to $3.00, and
Epaulette ($4.50).
“Randwick is Gai’s home track and
she has dominated there in the
past, so it’s only a matter of time
before one of her runners salutes.
This race looks a match in two, and
while All Too Hard has plenty of
supporters, More Joyous looms as
the one to end her hoodoo,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
In the Sydney Cup – the race where
sportsbet.com.au will refund
punters their bet on the Group 1 if
their selection runs second –
favourite Kelinni has firmed from
$3.30 into $3.00 under a barrage of
punter support, and despite
Maluckyday looming at $4.00, the
Chris Waller trained stayer has
well and truly been singled out as
the winner by punters.
In form It’s A Dundeel has eased
from $1.33 to $1.40 but remains a
clear cut favourite to continue on
his dominant winning streak in the
Queen Elizabeth Stakes. Reliable
Man ($9.00 into $7.00) has been the
best backed runner to beat It’s A
Dundeel.
Guelph continues to drift in
betting for the Champagne Stakes,
$2.25 out to $2.60 but does remain
favourite. Punters have come for
Scandiva ($6.50), Criterion
($6.00), Equator ($13), Riocetta
($13) and Fuerza ($34) to cause the
upset.

commented on SWAN TO ANNOUNCE $20 BILLION+ DEFICIT | | The odds were stacked against
Treasurer Wayne Swan announcing a
budget surplus on May 14. It’s now
odds on that he’ll deliver a
deficit of between $20 billion and
$29.9 billion.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has framed a market on what Swan’s
2012/13 budget will deliver,
installing a deficit of between $20
billion and $29.9 billion as the
$2.00 favourite.
Deficits between $30 billion and
$39.9 billion and between $10
billion and $19.9 billion are also
right in contention, priced at
$3.00 and $4.00 respectively.
A budget surplus being announced is
the biggest outsider in betting at
$101.
“The top three options in the
market - all very short prices -
point to at least a $10 billion
deficit being announced,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened a
market on who will be the Treasurer
delivering the budget in 2014 which
is headed by the short priced
favourite at $1.10, Joe Hockey.
Meanwhile, the Coalition is into
its shortest price ever to win the
2013 federal election, firming into
$1.09, with Labor now out to
$7.00.

commented on BOWEN TO OUT SELL CARR | | Soon to be authors Chris Bowen and
Kim Carr are on the same side of
politics but online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au is pitting them up
against each other in the ultimate
test of their literary skills.
Sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on which one of the pair
will sell the most books now we
know they’re both penning memoirs
and it’s Bowen who has been opened
as the early favourite at $1.50
ahead of Carr at $2.50.
“No doubt they’ll both keep tabs on
how many copies each other has sold
but let’s just hope they don’t
schedule the launch on the same
day. What would K-Rudd do?” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Penning memoirs aside, Bowen’s hold
on the seat of McMahon continues to
loosen if you listen to
sportsbet.com.au punters, with
money so far identical for Labor
and the Coalition to win the
electorate.
As a result, Bowen has eased out to
$1.50, with the Coalition firming
from $2.75 into $2.50.

commented on COTCHIN OUTRIGHT BROWNLOW FAVOURITE | | Port fans have more reasons to
smile after their 3-0 start to the
season, with their young gun Ollie
Wines firming from $5.00 to $2.75
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the Rising
Star award.
In other award markets, Trent
Cotchin is now the outright
favourite at $6.00 to win the
Brownlow with Gary Ablett drifting
from $6.00 to $7.50 and Jobe Watson
moving from $5.00 to $8.00.
Lance Franklin remains steady at
$3.00 to win the Coleman Medal with
Jack Riewoldt firming from $6.00 to
$5.00 and Taylor Walker drifting
from $6.00 to $7.00.
After opening the market as a $21
chance, punters have been on Wines
from the beginning and he has
remained the best backed player.
Brisbane’s Sam Mayes ($67 into $12)
and round 3 nominee Jed Anderson
($101 into $31) have been the big
movers over the weekend.
“Moving into $2.75 after only three
games shows just how well Wines has
been playing and also just how much
support he has from punters. There
has virtually been no interest for
anyone else but him over the last
two weeks,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
In Brownlow betting, although
Cotchin has moved into favouritism,
punters have continued to back Gary
Ablett despite injury speculation.
“There has been more money for
Ablett than anyone else so no doubt
punters are holding their breath to
see how he pulls up.”

commented on PUNTERS SAY IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO NSW PICK | | New South Wales can stew on team
selection all they want, Queensland
will make it eight straight State
of Origin series wins this year.
That’s the opinion of punters with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
who’ve started backing the Maroons
in droves.
Opened at $1.90 each to win the
2013 series, a tide of money for
Queensland in the last week has
seen them firm into $1.80 and the
Blues drift out to $2.00.
“Bets are now coming in 8 to 1 in
favour of Mal Meninga’s men.
Punters aren’t concerned with what
Laurie Daley is doing or saying
about his team selections and are
snapping up the value price before
it’s too late,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.
Punters are even more confident
about the result of Friday’s Test
match between Australia and New
Zealand, backing the Kangaroos from
$1.18 into $1.12 and causing the
Kiwis to balloon out to $6.20.
“In a two-horse race, it simply
doesn’t get any more one-sided from
a betting perspective. Bets of
$10,000, $5,000 and $2,000 were
coming in for the Aussies
yesterday, while the biggest wager
we’ve written for the Kiwis so far
is $50,” Hawes added.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened
betting on Saturday’s clash between
Tonga and Samoa, installing both
sides at $1.90.

commented on SCOTT TO TOP MAJOR WIN? | | Can Adam Scott win another Major
this year? It looks a real chance
according to online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au, pricing $6.00 for
him to win a second one in 2013.
A third Major has been priced at
$17, while a clean sweep of all
four is an outside chance at $126.
It also seems a good chance that
another Aussie may join Scott as a
Major winner this year, with $3.50
priced for an two Majors to be won
by Australians, $11 for three and
$67 for all four majors to be won
by Aussies.
However Scott appears the mostly
likely Australian to next win a
Major, priced at $1.44, Jason Day
$3.50 and Geoff Ogilvy $8.50.
“Now the jinx is broken the market
suggests Scott and the other Aussie
golfers could really get on a roll

commented on DEES SMASHED, BUT MOVE TO FAVOURITES OVER GWS | | They may have copped another
smashing, but Melbourne’s efforts
against the West Coast Eagles over
the weekend has seen them become
favourites with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au for their round 4
clash against GWS.
Prior to the weekend the Giants
were favourites at $1.80, however
they are now out to $2.05 with the
Demons firming from $1.93 to
$1.72.
Despite their horrendous start to
the season, punters are behind
Melbourne, with the money coming in
seven to one in favour of the
Demons.
“It’s pretty rare that a team gets
belted over the weekend and then
moves into favouritism the next
week. But the money has been
surprising for the Demons with
virtually no interest in the Giants
from punters,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
The Hawks have continued to firm
for the flag since yesterday’s win
over Collingwood, moving from $4.50

sportsbet.com.au to beat Carlton
($2.95).
However after all the money coming
for Collingwood at the beginning of
the week, there has been massive
support for Carlton over the last
24 hours and money is now virtually
even.
Sportsbet.com.au has also gotten
into the Buckley v Malthouse
rivalry for this game, creating a
Thrift Shop parody pitting the two
against each other. The video has
had over 150,000 views throughout
Facebook and Youtube over the last
week. Click here to check it out!
“It was one way traffic for the
Pies, but maybe punters are
thinking the Mick Malthouse factor
has given Carlton the edge? Punters
are split right down the middle of
this one,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
With a massive crowd expected,
sportsbet.com.au are offering a
money back special on the game if
there is over 90,000 fans in
attendance with all first bets on
the match refunded.

commented on IDENTICAL SUPPORT FOR GAI’S SLIPPER PAIR | | Champion trainer Gai Waterhouse
holds the ace hand in the Golden
Slipper, but punters are split
between her favourite Overreach and
Sweet Idea.
The Waterhouse duo have been best
backed with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au. However,
Overreach has drifted from $2.10 to
$2.30, while Sweet Idea is $13 into
$9.00.
“There is a big group of punters
who think Sweet Idea can cause a
boilover. She’s been very well
backed and has had the same amount
of support as Overreach, who is on
the drift. The fillies dominate the
race and it is hard to go past
Overreach, she’s been super
impressive,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
There has also been steady money
for Criterion ($15), Sidestep ($10)
and Ruud Awakening ($12), while
Charlie Boy is the best backed
roughie at $41.
There is no doubt in punter’s minds
that the Waterhouse trained Pierro
will win the George Ryder. The colt
is clear top pick at $1.55 and is
attracting the major money. Shoot
Out ($9.00) is best backed to beat
him.
The most open betting race is The
BMW where punters are finding it
hard to sort, with several runners
well backed. Favourite
Fiveandahalfstar has eased from
$2.90 out to $3.20, while
Foreteller ($6.50), Le Roi ($19)
and Hathras ($7.50), Maluckyday

In the Queen Of The Turf, gun mare
More Joyous has also eased slightly
($1.45 out to $1.60), but remains
the top fancy with punters. There
has been money for Red Tracer

commented on PUNTERS UNCERTAIN WHERE TO STEER IN BMW | | Derby winner Fiveandahalfstar is
the $2.80 favourite for The BMW at
Rosehill on Saturday, but the major
money is going elsewhere according
to online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Sportsbet.com.au has markets
already open on every race at
Rosehill this Slipper Saturday,
including the Queen Of The Turf,
George Ryder Stakes, the Vinery
Stud Stakes and Tulloch Stakes.
Four runners, Foreteller ($7.00),
Hathras ($9.00), Kelinni ($14) and
Le Roi ($26) have attracted almost
identical support for the Group 1
BMW.
Other runners under double figures,
Maluckyday ($6.00) and Silent
Achiever ($9.00), have also been
friendless with punters.
“The money has been well spread
around those four horses, it
appears the punters are uncertain
which horse is the one. While
Fiveandahalfstar is the current
favourite, the three-year-old
hasn’t attracted a lot of support
as yet,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
In Golden Slipper betting,
Overreach has eased from $1.90 to
$2.00 but remains the firm
favourite. Overnight, support came
for the Darley runner Sidestep, who
has firmed from $13 into $11.
Sportsbet.com.au will refund
punters their bet in both the
Golden Slipper and The BMW if their
selection runs second in the
respective races.

commented on VICTORY NO MATCH FOR LIVERPOOL | | With news Liverpool will join
Manchester United and grace our
shores this July, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened the
Reds at $1.50 to win their match
against the Melbourne Victory.
The Victory are the $6.00
outsiders, while a draw is paying
$4.00.
“Liverpool should account for the
Victory with relative ease but you
just never know. One thing that is
disappointing is that we won’t get
to see Luis Suarez go toe-to-toe
with Kevin Muscat,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
United look set to have an even
easier time against the A-League
All-Stars in Sydney, with the Red
Devils the heavily backed $1.22

commented on A DECREASE BEFORE AN INCREASE FROM THE RBA | | With interest rates again being
kept on hold this afternoon, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au says the
RBA is likely to decrease rates
before increasing them whenever
they next decide to next make a
change.
A rate decrease is the $1.33
favourite, with a rate increase the
$3.00 outsider.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened a
market on what May’s RBA decision
will be and punters can expect more
of the same with rates staying as
they are the $1.15 favourite. Any
increase is at $13.
“All the early indications point to
the RBA keeping rates on hold in
May but in good news for
homeowners, our market says that
whenever the RBA changes rates,
it’s highly likely it will be a
decrease,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
Punters can have a bet on what the
interest rate will be at the end of
2013, with 2.75 the $3.50 favourite
ahead of 3.00 ($3.75) and 2.5
($4.50), while the NAB ($2.00) is
the favourite of the Big Four banks
to have the lowest variable
interest rate at the end of the
year, ahead of Commonwealth

commented on FIFTH SLIPPER WITHIN REACH FOR GAI | | The rails barrier has shored up
support for smart filly Overreach,
who looks set to give champion
trainer Gai Waterhouse her fifth
Golden Slipper win at Rosehill on
Saturday.
Overreach has been the only horse
punters have wanted to back this
week. After drawing barrier one
this morning, the Exceed And Excel
filly firmed into $1.90 favourite
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Sportsbet.com.au has markets
already open on every race at
Rosehill this Slipper Saturday,
including More Joyous as the $1.50
favourite in the Queen Of The Turf,
Pierro at $1.65 in the George Ryder
Stakes and Norzita as the $3.50 top
pick in the Vinery Stud Stakes.
Connections paid $150,000 to get
smart New Zealand filly Ruud
Awakening into the Slipper field. A
winner of five of her six starts,
Ruud Awakening is next in betting
on $13 alongside Sidestep with
Criterion, who’s attracted some
punter support since the draw, at
$15.
“It’s been one way traffic since
Overreach bolted in at her final
Slipper lead-up, the Reisling. When
the barriers were announced the
money has continued to come for the
filly, she is easily the best
backed runner,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.

performance in round 1 has seen him
firm from $8.00 to be the outright
$6.00 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
the Brownlow Medal.
Jobe Watson’s efforts against
Adelaide have also seen his odds
firm slightly from $8.00 to $7.50,
while Richmond’s Trent Cotchin has
remained steady at $8.00.
The best on ground effort by
Geelong’s Joel Selwood yesterday
has seen his odds slashed from $31

commented on KIWI SET TO BE A GUINEAS KING | | Fresh from his Randwick Guineas win
It’s A Dundeel has been installed a
$1.60 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au for
Saturday’s Rosehill Guineas.
It’s A Dundeel unleashed a powerful
finish to win his last start and
with the likelihood of facing
weaker opposition the Kiwi is
dominant in betting.
Fiveandahalfstar, who is a doubtful
starter, has been kept safe at
$3.50.
“Trainer Murray Baker put blinkers
on Its A Dundeel last start and the
horse was super impressive. This
field looks like falling away and
it won’t surprise if the Kiwi
starts shorter, he’s certainly very
popular with punters,”

Victorian Hvasstan ($4.50) is next
in betting and should be suited by

commented on TIGER WOODS BACK ON THE PROWL? | | Can online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au take any credit
for Tiger Woods once again becoming
world number 1 after releasing
several novelty markets on Woods’
love life last week? Probably not,
but perhaps it has helped get his
career back on track!
Despite reclaiming his world number
1 status, it appears unlikely that
he will win a Major this year, with
zero Major titles for 2013 the
$1.67 favourite ahead of one at
$2.76, two at $8.20, three at $23
and four or more at $70.
If he is to win a Major this year,
the 2013 US Masters looks the most
likely at $4.50.
While a Major this year is an
outside chance, it looks likely
that he will add to this 14 current
titles, priced at $1.66 to win
between 15-18 Majors by the time he
retires. 19 or more is priced at
$2.62 and exactly 14 is at $7.00.
“Before he got his career back on
track, last week we released a
market pricing $1.20 that he will
be a good boy and not get caught
cheating in 2013, however we also
priced $2.50 that Tiger may be
broken up with new girlfriend
Lindsay Vonn by Christmas. Either
way, 2013 is tipped to be a big

commented on WILL THEY STAY OR WILL THEY GO? | | With Julia Gillard’s new cabinet
team announced, the question of how
many will hold on to their
electorate at the federal election
is now being asked.
According to a market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, it’s
anyone’s guess with anywhere
between zero and six ministers
losing their seat in contention.
Two ministers losing their
electorate is the $4.00 favourite,
followed by one ($5.00), three
($5.00), zero ($5.50), four
($6.00), five ($8.00) and six
($9.00).
“There’s still a lot of water to
flow under the bridge between now
and when we vote and the market is
indicative of that. All of her
ministers could win their seats, or
a stack of them could go. It’s up
to the voters now,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Punters can also have a bet on
whether there will be a seventh
reshuffle before the election, with
‘No’ at $1.33 and ‘Yes’ the $3.00
outsider.
Since the attempted leadership
spill last week, only 24 percent of
money wagered on who will win the
federal election has been placed on
Labor, who are priced at $5.00 to
the Coalition’s $1.15.
And the election finally looks set
to be between Tony Abbott and
Gillard, with the pair priced at
$1.02 and $1.20 to be leaders of
their respective parties when the
election is held.

commented on ROOS WILL BOUNCE OUT OF FINALS RACE | | Although the Kangaroos have
surprisingly been the fourth best
backed team overall to win the
flag, one punter with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au couldn’t
disagree more, placing a bet of
$100,000 that North Melbourne won’t
even make the top 8.
Priced at $34 to win the flag, the
Kangaroos have attracted more money
than last year’s grand finalists
Hawthorn and Sydney. However the
punter has gone against the trend,
betting $100,000 at $1.45 that the
Kangaroos will not be featuring in
the September action.
“The Kangaroos have been the
biggest surprise from a betting
point of view with punters liking
their chances more than Hawthorn
and Sydney. But one punter has
looked at their tough opening draw
and has bet $100,000 that they
won’t be able to recover,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
In round 1 betting, Carlton
continue to be $1.70 favourites
over Richmond at $2.18. Brisbane
continue to be the best backed team
and are now into $1.38 from $1.48

commented on TEX WALKER PUNTERS PICK FOR COLEMAN OVER BUDDY | | While Buddy Franklin remains the
$3.25 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
this year’s Coleman Medal, punters
have turned to Adelaide’s Taylor
Walker at $5.00 to kick the most
goals this year.
After kicking three goals over the
weekend, Walker has firmed from
$5.50 to $5.00.
But in a sign that he is the
punters pick, he has now received
more money than any other player to
kick the most goals and has also
had the most bets placed on him.
“Are punters scared off by Buddy’s
contract talks? Maybe, but then
again Taylor’s mullet is pretty
scary as well and that certainly
hasn’t turned punters away! In
fact, they can’t get enough of him
to win the Coleman and has easily
been the best backed,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
West Coast’s Josh Kennedy has also
been a mover for the Coleman Medal
and is in from $16 to $12, while
Matthew Pavlich has drifted from
$6.00 to $9.00.

commented on PUNTERS ON BOARD WITH BARRY TOO | |
First it was the polls, now it’s
punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au who have backed
the performance of NSW Premier
Barry O’Farrell with his Coalition
government firming into $1.14 to
win the next state election.
So adamant are punters that
O’Farrell will win a second term,
96 percent of all money wagered on
the market has been for the
Coalition. The Labor party is on
the drift and are out from $4.00 to
$5.00.
“In mid-2012, O’Farrell and the
Coalition were priced at $1.20 but
have since been crunched into
$1.14. At this point, it’s a ten
length win for Barry,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Like his party, O’Farrell is about
as close to a sure thing as you can
get, priced at $1.20 to be
Coalition leader at the next NSW
state election. He looks set to
face John Robertson, who is at
$1.36 to be Labor leader when NSW
next votes.

commented on ALL BETS ON WEBBER REFUNDED | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has refunded all bets on Mark
Webber to win the Malaysian Grand
Prix after Red Bull teammate
Sebastian Vettel defied team orders
by overtaking Webber toward the end
of the race, denying Webber his
10th Grand Prix victory.
“It’s not Mark’s fault Sebastian
can’t follow simple instructions,
and we’re happy to refund patriotic
punters who put their hard-earned
on Webber,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Haydn Lane said.
With speculation mounting on
Webber’s future plans,
sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on whether he will race for
Red Bull next season, with ‘No’ the
short-priced favourite at just

commented on NO PUNTER LOVE FOR THE HAWKS & SWANS | | With the 2013 AFL season now
underway, punters with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au are
beginning to make it clear which
teams they want to be on to win the
flag, and it may not be last year’s
grand finalists.
And in a sign of how even this
season is tipped to be, not
surprisingly the money from punters
has been even over a number of
teams.
Although Hawthorn have again
entered the season as favourites,
the punters aren’t convinced, with
Collingwood and Geelong emerging as
the best backed teams.
In an even bigger surprise,
reigning premiers Sydney have also
attracted no interest from
punters.
2013 AFL betting trends:
· After opening at $4.00 to
win the flag following their 2012
Grand Final loss, the Hawks have
been friendless over the
pre-season, drifting out to $5.00.
Despite being favourites, they are
only the 6th best backed team
overall
· Collingwood have not only
flown under the radar at $7.50, but
have received more money to win the
flag than any other team
· Punters think that
Geelong have one more shot at the
title left in them, and are the
second best backed team overall.
They have been the biggest movers
of the top chances, now into $9.00
after opening at $18. Two smart
punters were quick to jump on at
their big odds, placing individual
bets of $10,000 at $18 and $14
respectively.
· The Kangaroos have
attracted a lot of interest from
punters and are the fourth best
backed team at $34.
· Despite winning last
year’s flag and getting the
services of Kurt Tippett in the
second half of the year, the Swans
are only the 5th best backed team
at $7.00
· Port Adelaide have
received the least amount of bets
and money to win the flag than any
other team ($151), including GWS
($1001) and Gold Coast ($751)
· It looks like the Tigers
will finally make the finals,
firming from $2.01 to $1.80 to make
the top 8
· Not only are punters
tipping the Pies for the flag, but
they look to be the safest bet to
make the finals at $1.25, with over
$100,000 already bet on them to do
so
“The punters are giving last year’s
grand finalists no chance, instead
looking for value and have
identified Collingwood and Geelong
as the ones to be on. The Pies have
been the best backed but the Cats
have been the biggest movers and
are into $9.00. Do they still have
one more tilt at the flag left in
them? The punters certainly think
so,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.

commented on PEARCE, REYNOLDS IN TWO HORSE RACE FOR BLUES NO.7 | | It’s a two horse race for the
all-important New South Wales
number seven jersey for game one of
the 2013 State of Origin series
according to market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Roosters halfback Mitchell Pearce
has been opened as the $1.45
favourite but faces serious
opposition from Bunnies young gun
Adam Reynolds, who is next at
$2.30.
The rest of the candidates are at
big odds, with utility Kurt Gidley
at $10, Jarrod Mullen and Jamie
Soward both priced at $26 and
former Blues player Brett Finch at
$251.
Given the Blues have lost the last
seven Origin series, doing their
own ‘Alfie Langer’ and calling in
former great Andrew Johns to right
the ship seems about as likely as
humans ever living on Mars, with
Joey at $1001 to don the NSW
jersey.
“Blues coach Laurie Daley has said
Pearce is the front runner but the
form of Adam Reynolds could force
him into a serious re-think,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Both teams are at $1.90 to win the
2013 series but punters think the
Blues will end their drought with
money so far coming in three to one
in their favour.

commented on TWICE THE MONEY ON FYFE AND DANGERFIELD | | Three votes… Nathan Fyfe? That’s
what we will hearing a lot during
this year’s Brownlow medal count
according to punters with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, with
the Fremantle superstar being the
best backed player to win the
prestigious award on the eve of the
season.
It looks like there could be a
changing of the guard, with
Adelaide’s Patrick Dangerfield the
second best backed player.
Such has been the support for Fyfe
and Dangerfield that the young pair
have both received more than twice
the money bet on them compared to
usual campaigners such as Gary
Ablett, Dane Swan and Scott
Pendlebury.
The pair have also attracted more
than six times the amount of bets
than last year’s winner Jobe
Watson.
Fyfe has remained steady at $16,
while Dangerfield has firmed from
$11 to $10 and is the second
favourite behind equal favourites
Gary Ablett, Trent Cotchin and Jobe
Watson, all priced at $8.00. One
punter made the most of the $11
while it was on offer, placing a
$2,000 bet last week on Dangerfield
for a return of $22,000.
“Punters are seemingly sick of the
same old names being mentioned and
are looking for value elsewhere.
Both Fyfe and Dangerfield polled
well last year and if they progress
as expected, they will be much
shorter than their current odds by
the end of the season,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

commented on BOMBERS TIPPED TO GET OFF TO A BUMPY START | | Essendon’s turbulent off season
isn’t going to get an early
reprieve according to punters, with
more than four times the money bet
on Adelaide to win Friday night’s
round 1 match against the Bombers
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
After opening at $1.51, the Crows
have been firm at $1.45 while the
Bombers have drifted from $2.50 to

“The backing has been steady for
the Crows since we opened the

up the Crows could easily start
shorter than the $1.45 on offer,”

Anderson.
In other round one matches,
Fremantle still remain outsiders
but have firmed from $2.20 to $2.05

commented on WHAT ARE THE ELECTION ODDS | | With Labor party leadership
speculation continuing unabated,
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened markets on who would win
this year’s federal election if any
of Kevin Rudd, Simon Crean or Bill
Shorten were to go head to head
against the Coalition’s Tony
Abbott.
As it stands, the Coalition is the
$1.16 favourite and Labor the $4.75
to win the election, however if
Kevin Rudd is jettisoned back into
the fold, Tony Abbott and the
Coalition would be priced at $1.33
and Labor would be a $3.00 chance.
With Simon Crean as leader, Labor
would be a $6.00 chance to win the
election and the Coalition at $1.10
or with Bill Shorten in charge,
Labor would be priced at $4.00 and
the Coalition $1.20.
“Out of Kevin Rudd, Simon Crean and
Bill Shorten, it is Rudd who gives
Labor the best chance of an upset
election victory according to the
betting markets,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.

commented on RUDD FIRMS (AGAIN) TO GET HIS OLD JOB BACK | | Following speculation Kevin Rudd
may be ready to return the favour
to Julia Gillard and challenge her
leadership again, his price to lead
the Labor party at the time of the
federal election has firmed from
$2.00 to $1.50 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
As a result, Gillard has drifted
from $2.00 to $2.50.
Given Rudd didn’t have the support
required during his last challenge,
punters have turned to Simon Crean
as a good alternative should
Gillard be challenged, in from $15
to $5.00.
And while Labor are still outsiders
to win the election, the
possibility of a leadership
challenge has seen them firm from
$5.50 to $4.75, with the Liberals
drifting slightly from $1.14 to
$1.16.
“The betting suggests that not only
may Rudd challenge, but if he does
he is a big chance to get his old
job back,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.

commented on LIONS RD 1 ODDS SLASHED AFTER NAB CUP WIN | | Punters have been quick to jump on
the Brisbane Lions after their
surprise NAB Cup victory, with
punters coming out of the woodwork
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to back them for
both the Premiership and round 1.
While three weeks ago they were
priced at $2.00 to beat the Western
Bulldogs in round 1 (also priced at
$2.00), they have firmed
significantly after a brilliant NAB
Cup campaign and have been the
biggest movers for the round, now
into $1.55.
As a result the Bulldogs have
drifted out to $2.40.
The Lions have also attracted
punter action for the flag over the
weekend, in from $101 to $67.
In the round 1 matches being played
this weekend, Adelaide have been
the best backed team and remain
$1.45 favourites over Essendon
($2.75), while despite being $2.20
outsiders, Fremantle have received
twice the amount of bets than West
Coast ($1.66).
“NAB Cup form isn’t always full
proof, but punters have liked what
they have seen from the Lions and
while they are still long shots for
the flag, punters have snapped up
the odds offered for round 1,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

commented on AMITY & PHIL FAVOURITES TO WIN THE BLOCK! | | The underdogs have turned into
clear favourites on The Block All
Stars, with Amity and Phil firming
into $1.50 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the show on
the eve of the auction.
Having not been on the show for 10
years and having the least amount
of trade experience, the pair were
the initial $4.00 outsiders when
the market first opened in early
January.
However they now look like the ones
to beat, with early favourites Dani
and Dan looking like their biggest
competition at $3.25.
“Even we had them as underdogs
early on, but the mezzanine level
above their kitchen seems to give
them a massive edge and they are
now clear favourites,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Josh and Jenna are on the third
line of betting at $5.00, with

commented on CLP FAVOURITES TO STAY IN POWER DESPITE CHANGES | | Following the decision by the
Country Liberal Party to punt
leader Terry Mills, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
opened a market on who’ll win the
next Northern Territory state
election and while the CLP are
favourites, they’re not as short as
many would think.
The CLP has been opened at $1.62 to
win the next state election with
the Australian Labor Party the
$2.20 outsider.
Sportsbet.com.au had the CLP at
$1.37 to win last year’s state
election and the ALP at $2.80 when
voting commenced.
“The next state election isn’t
until 2016 and if things like this
continue to occur within the CLP,
Labor are a chance of victory when
the Territorians next vote,” said

commented on MARC MURPHY MICHAEL TUCK FAVOURITE | | Newly appointed Carlton skipper
Marc Murphy looks set to start his
captaincy on the best possible
note, priced as the $6.00 favourite
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the Michael
Tuck medal for being best on ground
during the NAB Cup grand final.
Former captain Chris Judd is next
in the market at $8.00 followed by
Brisbane young guns Tom Rockliff
($9.00) and Jack Redden ($10).
In match betting, after money was
50/50 throughout the early stages
of the week, punters have come hard
for Carlton over the last 24 hours,
with more than four times the money
on the Blues over the Lions.
Carlton have remained steady at
$1.34 while Brisbane have drifted
slightly from $3.20 to $3.25.
“It looks to be a good week for
both Marc Murphy and the Blues
according to punters. But surely
Juddy is value at $8.00 given he
now has the shackles off and has a
history of tearing the Lions
apart?” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.

commented on SCOLA FAVOURITE AFTER FIRST POPE VOTE | | While Archbishop Angelo Scola is
still the $3.50 favourite with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
to be named the next Pope, he will
be keeping a close eye on American
counterparts Cardinal Sean O’Malley
and Cardinal Raymond Burke who have
firmed significantly.
After the first vote at the
Conclave failed to produce the next
Pope, the American pair proved
popular with punters and have seen
their odds shorten, with O’Malley
coming in from $26 to $11 and Burke
a big mover in from $67 to $26.
One punter apparently received the
word from above that Burke could be
a good thing, placing a bet of $200
at $41 to win over $8,000.
Brazilian Cardinal Odilo Scherer
has also been a big mover and is
now third favourite in from $8.00
to $5.00 while Cardinal Peter
Turkson remains second favourite
despite drifting from $3.00 to
$4.50.
Scola has been the best backed with
punters after receiving a bet of
$2,000 earlier in the week at
$4.00.
“Scola has been favourite since
Benedict decided he was hanging up
his Pope hat and while he still
looks like the next chosen one,
O’Malley and Burke have been big
movers which shows this race is
still wide open,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

commented on PUNTERS KEEN ON WEBBER AT GP | | While Mark Webber has had more bets
placed on him than any other
competitor with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the
Australian Grand Prix, Sebastian
Vettel looms as the one to beat and
is the $3.60 favourite.
Webber is well and truly in the
hunt at $9.50, however faces stiff
competition with Fernando Alonso
($5.50), Jenson Button ($6.00)
Lewis Hamilton ($8.00) and Kimi
Raikkonen ($8.50).
Fellow Aussie Daniel Ricciardo is a
long shot at $151, with ‘no’ and
Australian won’t win looking likely
at $1.06, with yes priced at
$8.00.
A podium finish for an Australian
also looks unlikely at $2.63, with
no Aussies to be popping the
champagne priced at $1.44.
“The punters are tipping that
Webber can finally win his first
Australian Grand Prix and he has
been well backed, but Sebastian
Vettel has been the favourite since
the market opened and that doesn’t
look like changing ,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Punters are also able to bet on how
well attended the event will be
this year, with a line set at above
or below 314,000 fans priced at

commented on GILLARD FAVOURITE TO BE PREFERRED PM | | Yesterday’s Newspoll said Julia
Gillard had clawed her way back in
the popularity stakes and the good
times looks set to continue for the
PM with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au opening a market
on who will be the preferred PM
when the next Newspoll results come
through.
Gillard is the $1.67 favourite to
retain her position as preferred PM
at the next Newspoll, with Tony
Abbott at $2.10 and a tie the $9.00
outsider.
Punters can also wager on the what
points gap there will be between
Labor and the Coalition in the next
two party preferred Newspoll
results, with Labor trailing by
five points the $3.75 favourite.
Labor being ahead is the biggest
outsider in betting at $15.
“It looks like the Prime Ministers
trip to Western Sydney has paid
dividends. The people at Newspoll
might sneak back onto her Christmas
card list after all,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
The positive Newspoll results have
also had an impact on the federal
election winner market, with Labor
firming from $5.50 into $4.75 and
the Coalition easing from $1,14 out
to $1.16.

commented on PUNTERS INSATIABLE APPETITE FOR CAVIAR | | She is the best horse in the world
and punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au continue to
support Black Caviar as her
Melbourne swansong approaches.
The wonder mare remains $1.06
favourite for Friday week’s William
Reid Stakes at Moonee Valley.
“There’s been plenty of quality
racing in Melbourne, but the
punters haven’t forgotten the
mighty mare. Even at the short odds
we’ve had a consistent flow of bets
and that will increase as the big
night nears,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Sydney mare Sea Siren is second
favourite at $8.50, with Black
Caviar’s stablemate, Moment Of
Change $15.
In other racing news, home track
advantage and the absence of
superstar Pierro will ensure Rebel
Dane starts favourite in Saturday’s
Randwick Guineas.
The colt has been installed as the
$2.00 favourite for the Group 1,
but faces tough opposition in
Proisir ($4.00), Tougher Than Ever
($8.00) and It’s A Dundeel
($8.00).
“Rebel Dane was super going down
narrowly to Pierro last start and
he has a lot in his favour this
time. In saying that he’s meeting
some quality three-year-olds so it
won’t be a cakewalk.”
Last start Australian Guineas
winner Ferlax is expected to
attract admirers at $9.00. The
Pentire colt is unbeaten in three
starts and is on the rise.

commented on TIGERS & DOGS TO OPEN ACCOUNTS | | The Wests Tigers are tipped to
break their duck but the same can’t
be said for St. George Illawarra
after online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au opened the Dragons
as outsiders for their round two
home clash against the Broncos.
The Dragons are priced at $2.26
against Brisbane ($1.64), while the
Tigers have been installed
favourites at $1.72 when they host
the Panthers ($2.12).
Other round two favourites include
the Bulldogs ($1.58), Roosters
($1.73), Storm ($1.81), Titans
($1.50), Manly ($1.67), and South
Sydney ($1.42).
“The Panthers were impressive in
dismantling the Raiders in round
one so the $2.12 might not last
long,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes.
In premiership betting, the Storm
firmed from $6.00 into $5.00 to go
back-to-back, while the Bunnies,
who’ve made a big move from $9.00
into $6.00, Cowboys ($11 into
$9.00) and Knights ($13 into $10)

commented on BLUES NAB CUP FAVOURITES | | While Carlton will start as $1.33
favourites to win the NAB Cup with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au,
several smart punters will be
desperately hoping the Lions can
cause an upset after placing a
number of bets with big returns on
the Brisbane in the lead up to the
NAB Cup.
Now priced at $3.20, one punter
stands to collect over $5,000 after
placing a $100 bet at $51 when the
market first opened.
Other punters have jumped on board
this week, with one betting $1000
at $3.00 to collect $3,000.
One punter also liked Carlton’s
hopes from a long way out, betting
$500 at $14 on the Blues to collect
over $7,000.
In head to head betting, while
Carlton are clear favourites, the
betting has been almost 50/50.
“Being played in Melbourne
obviously sees the Blues start as
favourites, but punters have been
on the Lions since the market
opened and the betting has been
virtually even,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Brisbane’s pre-season form has also
seen them firm in their round one
match against the Western Bulldogs
from $1.76 to $1.70, while Carlton
have also firmed from $1.72 into
$1.60 for their round one

commented on 30,000 PLUS FOR DOGS, EELS BLOCKBUSTER | | With Parramatta sitting pretty in
second spot on the NRL ladder and
above fierce rivals Canterbury for
the first time in years, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au is

will lob at ANZ Stadium when the

Sportsbet.com.au has set the line

the clash, which sees the Bulldogs
$1.57 favourites and Parramatta the

“After seeing their side touch up

commented on NEXT POPE A TWO HORSE RACE | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au think the race to
be named the next Pope is a two
horse race between an Italian and
Ghanaian.
Italian Archbishop Angelo Scola and
Cardinal Peter Turkson from Ghana
now jointly head the betting at
$3.00 and have had the identical
amount wagered on them.
Next in the market is Cardinal
Tarcisio Bertone ($6.00), while the
big mover is Brazilian Cardinal
Odilo Scherer, who has firmed from
$26 into $8.00.
Any hope Cardinal George Pell had
of getting the top job seem long
gone, with the Australian drifting
from $23 out to $46.
“There’s been a hive of activity on
the market since the conclave
kick-off date was announced and the
vast majority of money in that time
has gone on Scola and Turkson, ”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“Aside from those two, the Vatican
City could be in line for a
Brazilian with Cardinal Odilo
Scherer of Brazil shortening at a
great rate of knots.”
Other notable moves include
American Cardinal Timothy Dolan
firming from $34 into $21 and
Austrian Cardinal Christoph
Schonborn tightening from $17 into
$13.

commented on RACE IS OVER, BOOKIE PAYS OUT ON WA LIBS | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has declared tomorrow’s West
Australian state election over and
has paid out on all bets placed on
the Liberal party to win.
Colin Barnett’s team were quickly
backed into $1.01 several weeks
ago, with Labor drifting out to
$12. Overall, 92% of money wagered
on the market was on the Liberals.
** sportsbet.com.au spokesman Shaun
Anderson is currently in Perth and
available for interview**
“We’d be paying out at some stage
over the weekend anyway so our
punters may as well enjoy their
cash early,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
As with all sportsbet.com.au early
payouts, the market remains open,
meaning punters who have been paid
out can take their cash or can
reinvest if they wish.
The WA election winner market will
remain open until polling closes on
Saturday evening. Betting on all of

commented on WALLER & MOODY HOLD KEY TO THE FARM | | Punters are finding it difficult to
split Shoot Out and Manighar in
tomorrow's Chipping Norton Stakes
at Warwick Farm.
After battling for favouritism, the
Chris Waller trained Shoot Out has
firmed to head the market at $4.60
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au. Manighar, from
the Peter Moody yard, has eased
slightly, out to $5.00 for the
Group 1.
“Both have been very solid with
punters and they do look the class
runners. But we have had also had
some support for Danleigh and
Glencadam Gold so betting suggests
it’s not a two-horse race,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Danleigh, another of Waller’s six
entries in the race, is at $13 with
Glencadam Gold at $15.
There has also been plenty of
betting action down south for the
Flemington Group 1’s.
Super Cool has firmed from $5.00
into $4.40 equal favourite with
Green Moon in the Australian Cup.
Mr Moet and Fiveandahalfstar follow
closely at $6.00.
The Peter Moody trained Moment Of
Change has received double the
support of any other runner and is
a $2.90 favourite for the Newmarket

commented on EITHER NOW OR NEXT YEAR FOR VICTORIAN PUNTERS | | Victorians will either have to wait
until late next year to vote or
will be called upon as soon as next
month to have their say according
to a new market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on when the next Victorian
state election will be held,
installing between October and
December 2014 as the $1.20
favourite, with between April and
June 2013 next in betting at $5.00.
Every other option in the market is
priced at the big odds of $25.
Since last night’s Liberal
leadership change, bets have come
in 50/50 for both parties to win
the state election with the odds
remaining at $1.40 for Liberals and
$2.80 for Labor.
“Victoria has fixed term elections
so the only way an early election
can be held is if the government
falls on the floor of parliament
and cannot be replaced. With so
much short term uncertainty, that
is a possibility,”
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
Punters can also wager on whether
Dennis Napthine’s first
satisfaction rating will be higher
or lower than Ted Baillieu's last
(31%), with $1.85 available for
higher or lower.

commented on QUEENSLANDER MORE THAN READY FOR BIG STAGE | | More support is expected for rising
Queensland star Better Than Ready
in Saturday’s Newmarket after a
strong trial at Flemington.
The flashy colt handled the
straight course in great fashion
and his price has firmed from $7.50
to $5.50 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Local hope Moment Of Change is
$2.80 favourite with West
Australian sprinter Barakey $5.50.
“By all reports the Queensland colt
worked brilliantly and he has been
well supported since betting
opened. This is obviously his acid
test, but he is doing everything
right, drops to a featherweight and
has Craig Williams aboard,'' said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson
said.
In Australian Cup betting,
Melbourne Cup winner Green Moon and
Super Cool look set to battle for
favouritism. Green Moon is $4.00

commented on PUNTERS COCK-A-HOOP WITH THE ROOSTERS | | With every team now named, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
updated all of its round one NRL
markets.
The Roosters have firmed from $2.30
into $2.25 ahead of Thursday’s
blockbuster, while the Bunnies have
drifted out to $1.66. The Chooks
have now attracted 66% of money
wagered on head to head betting.
In the other matches, the Bulldogs
have drifted from $1.55 out to
$1.85 with the Cowboys into $1.90
from $2.45, the Broncos have
tightened from $1.80 into $1.67
against the Manly ($2.00 out to
$2.25) and the Knights are into
$1.50 against the Wests Tigers
($2.30 out to $2.60).
“While the Bunnies are a gun side,
it hasn’t been surprising to see
solid support for the Roosters in
the last few weeks and it will
continue,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“The punters have also launched
into Cowboys, who are firming
quicker than Usain Bolt over 100m.
They are by far and away the best
backed side of the round to date.”
With no Josh Dugan, the Raiders are
now the $1.97 outsiders against
Penrith ($1.83), while the Eels
($1.72) look set to start as
favourites in Ricky Stuart’s first
match in charge when they host the

commented on MOON IS UP FOR ANOTHER CUP | | An impressive first-up performance
is enough to ensure Green Moon
opens favourite for the Australian
Cup.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has placed the Melbourne Cup winner
at the top of betting on $4.40 for
the Group 1. Star West Australian
Mr Moet is second pick at $4.50
with Super Cool ($6.00) and
Fiveandahalfstar ($7.50) following
closely in betting.
“Green Moon steps up from 1400m to

he’s had a long preparation and
this is his toughest test,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
In Saturday’s other Group 1 at
Flemington, Moment Of Change is the

commented on WILD WEST FOR LABOR | | Labor look set to drop at least
five Western Sydney seats at the
upcoming Federal Election if
punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au are on the money.
Sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on how many seats Labor will
lose in Western Sydney, with five
the $3.75 favourite, ahead of six
at $4.50 and seven or eight, both
priced at $5.00.
Holding on to all currently held
seats is the market outsider at
huge odds of $34.
“As it stands, punters are backing
Labor to lose Banks, Barton,
Greenway, Lindsay and Parramatta,
while Werriwa is currently too
close to call,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.
“On the other hand, punters are
adamant that Labor will hold onto
Blaxland, Chifley, Fowler, McMahon
and Watson. 99% of money wagered on
the Blaxland and Chifley
electorates has been on Labor’s
Jason Clare and Ed Husic.”
The seat of Barton had opened with
Labor the $1.45 favourite, however
Robert McClelland is now the $1.95
outsider with the Coalition backed
into $1.80 favourtism.
The Coalition remain at $1.15 to
win the federal election, with
Labor the $5.25 outsider.

commented on BAILLIEU STILL FAVOURITE | | While Victorian Premier Ted
Baillieu may be losing support
according to opinion polls, the
Liberals are still favourites to
win the next State election with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au –
for now.
A Liberal win at the next State
election is favourite at $1.50,
however there has been growing
support from punters for Labor who
have been well backed at $2.50.
“While the Liberals are favourites,
the market is much closer than
other state elections like Western
Australia for example where the
Liberals are as short as $1.01,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
“The Liberals are still out in
front, but there is no shortage of
punters who are having a very close
look at the $2.50 on offer for
Labor.”

commented on POPE BETTING INCREASE ON EVE OF CONCLAVE | | While Pope Benedict has ‘left the
building’, it hasn’t deterred
punters from tipping who will be
next to ride the Popemobile, with
money continuing to come for
Archbishop Angelo Scola who remains
the $3.00 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Such interest has been in the
market that Pope betting has
clearly been the most popular
novelty market this week, receiving
more bets than the Federal Election
betting.
While Scola remains firm with
punters, Cardinal Peter Turkson has
drifted from $3.75 to $4.00 while
Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone and
Cardinal Marc Ouellet are still in
the hurt at $5.00 and $8.00.
“There has been more than twice the
money on Scola than anyone else,
while Aussie George Pell continues
to be a long shot at $23,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
With attention now turned towards
the next Pope, it looks unlikely
that they will follow suit and
resign from the position, priced at
$3.10 to become only the third Pope
ever to resign.

commented on V8 DEBUTANTS TO FIND THE GOING TOUGH | | While competing with the Ford’s and
Holden’s at the pointy end of the
grid might be a while away for new
V8 Supercar manufacturers Nissan
and Mercedes, the drivers of the
new teams will no doubt be
competing amongst themselves to be
top dog.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened markets on which
Mercedes and which Nissan driver
will enjoy the best finish in
tomorrow’s opening race of the
Clipsal 500 in Adelaide.
For Mercedes, Rick Kelly heads the
betting at $1.83, ahead of Michael
Caruso ($2.88), his brother Todd
and James Moffat (both $7.00). At
Nissan, Lee Holdsworth is the $1.67
favourite, ahead of Tim Slade
($2.75) and Maro Engel ($6.00).
Rev heads hoping for the Cinderella
story of a Nissan or Mercedes
taking out race one look set to be
disappointed, with sportsbet.com.au
pricing any Nissan to win race one
at $9.00 and any Mercedes at $10.
“It looks like it could be a tough
initiation for Nissan and Mercedes
in Adelaide with either of the new
manufacturer pulling off a race win
about as likely as Kurt Tippett
getting clapped by Crows fans when
he returns to AAMI Stadium this
season,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
With former MotoGP world champ
Casey Stoner going around in the
development series, a huge crowd is
expected in Adelaide, with $1.57 on
offer for the total attendance
figure to be bigger than last
year’s 263,400.

commented on IM THEMIGHTYQUINN CAN JOIN ELITE | | Punters believe star pacer Im
Themightyquinn can become only the
third horse to win three
consecutive Inter Dominion finals.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has received solid support for Im
Themightyquinn, who is $3.20 second
favourite for the Menangle Group 1
on Sunday.
New Zealand raider Terror To Love
is the reigning $3.00 favourite and
has plenty of supporters, but that
could change with parochial support
for West Australian champion Im
Themightyquinn.
“It’s been a see-sawing battle for
favouritism and the race should pan
out that way. Blacks A Fake and Our
Sir Vancelot won three ‘Doms in a
row and there’s a portion of
punters who are getting behind Im
Themightyquinn to be the next horse
to achieve the historic feat,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“But there’s also a groundswell of
support for Terror To Love. At the
end of the day, it’s all set-up for
a mouthwatering clash.”
Impressive heat winners Mah Sish
has drawn the rails and is firm at
$6.00, with Caribbean Blaster next
in betting on $9.00.
In head to head betting, Terror To
Love is the $1.80 favourite against
Im Themightyquinn, who is priced at
$2.00.

commented on GAI PAIR DOMINATE HOBARTVILLE BETTING | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au think if anyone is
going to beat Pierro in Saturday’s
Hobartville Stakes at Rosehill it
will be less fancied stablemate
Proisir.
Pierro has eased from $1.80 to
$1.85 but remains a well backed
favourite, however the other Gai
Waterhouse trained colt is the next
best backed runner and has firmed
from $7.50 into $6.50.
Last start Royal Sovereign winner
Rebel Dane is solid second pick at
$4.20, with It’s A Dundeel ($26)
the best supported of the
roughies.
“While Pierro has eased slightly,
he has still been the best backed
horse in the race. Proisir is also
a class colt and with the Gai
factor it’s not surprising there
has been a move for him,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Punters have also rallied behind
another short priced favourite in
All Too Hard. The Cox Plate
runner-up is $1.28 for the Group 1
Australian Guineas at Flemington.
There has also been support for
last start winner Sheer Talent and
Hvasstan, both priced at the big
odds of $31.

Carlton have also been big movers,

commented on RUDD NOW FAVOURITE TO LEAD LABOR AGAIN | | With another opinion poll out
today, punters seem convinced that
Julia Gillard is in trouble, with
Kevin Rudd now the $2.00 favourite
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to be the Labor
leader by the time of the Federal
election.
This is the first time Rudd has
been favourite to regain leadership
since mid 2012, last holding top
spot in betting on August 7th, with
Gillard now drifting from $1.75 to
$2.30.
However with Rudd still claiming he
will not challenge, punters have
also turned to Bill Shorten as
another option, in from $9.00 to
$4.50.
“The punters have seemingly seen
enough and despite Rudd claiming he
won’t be challenging, the market
suggests that whether it be Rudd or
Shorten, Gillard may be in
trouble,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
On the other side of the fence,
Tony Abbott has no such worries,
still $1.02 to be the Liberal
leader at the time of the election.
The Liberals continue to loom as
significant favourites to win the
election, however have drifted
slightly from $1.13 to $1.15. As a
result Labor have firmed from $5.50
to $5.25.

commented on MIRACLES OF LIFE DOMINATES DIAMOND MARKET | | Unbeaten filly Miracles Of Life
appears certain to start a firm
favourite for Saturday’s Blue
Diamond Stakes at Caulfield.
Miracles Of Life has been smashed
by punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au and is into $3.10
favouritism. One time favourite
Guelph has been friendless, but
remains second pick at $3.20, after
the scratching of Thermal Current.
“We can’t see anything threatening
the Adelaide filly’s hold on
favouritism. She has been the only
one punters want to be on and is
easily the best backed horse in the
race. Guelph is unwanted, while the
likes of Crack A Roadie ($17) and
Dissident ($21) have had more
support,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
It has also been one way traffic
for All Too Hard in the Futurity
Stakes. The gun three-year-old is
$1.70 favourite and heavily backed,
with Melbourne Cup winner Green
Moon drifting to $8.50.
Shamal Wind ($5.50 into $4.50) is
the best backed runner in the
Oakleigh Plate behind favourite
Barakey, with the Perth sprinter
solid at $3.20.

continue on from their winning 2012
form, priced as favourites with

to beat both Melbourne and Richmond

They are clear $1.31 favourites to

commented on PUNTERS PICK SHORTEN & CREAN AS RUDD ALTERNATIVES | | With Kevin Rudd still claiming he
will not challenge for the Labor
leadership, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au punters have
turned their attention to Bill
Shorten and Simon Crean to take
over from Julia Gillard before the
Federal Election.
In a sign that punters believe
Gillard may be on the way out,
steady money has come for both
Crean and Shorten, with Crean
firming from $17 to $9.00 and
Shorten in from $21 to $9.00.
Its virtually a toss of the coin
for Gillard to be the Labor leader
by the election, priced at $1.75.
Despite claiming he has no
interest, Rudd is still popular
with the punters and is steady at
$2.00 to get back his old job.
In more bad news for Gillard,
punters have gotten further behind
Tony Abbott, with one punter
placing a bet of $50,000 on him at
$1.08 to be the Liberal leader by
the election.
In head to head betting, the
Coalition are still the clear
favourites at $1.13 to win the
election ahead of Labor at $5.50.
“The punters are loving Rudd,
Crean, Shorten and Abbott. All in
all, it just spells even more bad
news for Gillard and her hopes of
remaining Prime Minister,” said

Powerful Darley runner Guelph has

Adelaide filly Miracles Of Life has
taken top mantle, firming into
$3.20 favourite following solid

draw.
“We’ve had some good bets for

expect betting to see-saw between
the pair leading up to Saturday,’’
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun

commented on CUP WINNER SET TO RISE AGAINST YOUNG GUN | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
expects Melbourne Cup winner Green
Moon to be very competitive when he
resumes racing in the Futurity
Stakes on Saturday.
The six-year-old stallion has been
kept safe at $6.00 behind crack
three-year-old All Too Hard, who is
$1.70 favourite for the Caulfield
Group 1. King Mufhasa, who won the
race last year, is $5.00 second
favourite.
“All Too Hard was super impressive

deserves his place at the top of
betting. But you can’t discount
Green Moon, he’s won first-up
before and he could sprint well
fresh,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben

commented on PUNTERS SWOOP ON COALITION AFTER POLL RESULTS | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au have echoed the
results of recent polling, backing
the Coalition into just $1.13 to
win September’s Federal Election.
In the last week, 75 percent of
money wagered has been for Tony
Abbott’s Coalition, who are into
their shortest price since betting
opened shortly after the 2010
election.
Labor, on the other hand, are now
out to $5.50.
“Since the election date was
announced, punters have backed the
Coalition from $1.25 into $1.13. In
a two-horse race, that is a
powerful statement,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“We are still seeing bets come for
Labor from punters seeking value,
but the ones with the biggest
wallets are supporting the
Coalition.”
In Labor leader betting, Kevin Rudd
has firmed from $6.00 into $2.00 to
be party leader on September 14,
with Julia Gillard drifting from
$1.05 out to $1.75.
Tony Abbott has firmed into an
almost unbeatable position, now
priced at $1.02 to be Coalition
leader when the nation votes.

commented on NO PHOTO FOR BLACK CAVIAR | | Technology will not be required to
declare Black Caviar the Lightning
Stakes winner on Saturday according
to online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
A photo finish was needed when the
champion mare scraped home at Royal
Ascot, but $6.00 is her odds to win
the Flemington sprint in a
dead-heat to 1.9 lengths.
“She fell in by a nose at Ascot and
that was the first time, in her
unbeaten 22 start career, that a
photo finish was needed. The only
photos she will be in at Flemington
will be from the massive crowd that
will be there to cheer her on,’’
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
The favoured winning margin for
Black Caviar is between 4.0 and 5.9
lengths ($2.70) and she is $3.50 to
win by six lengths or more.
Black Caviar is, as usual, also
favourite to win the Group 1 at
$1.05 with Shamexpress and Moment

commented on REDS TO FLY THE FLAG FOR AUSSIES IN SUPER RUGBY | | Despite being $67 long shots to win
the Super Rugby 15 championship,
the Melbourne Rebels have been
tipped to start the year with a
win, priced at $1.35 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
their round one match against the
Western Force ($3.20).
The Brumbies also look likely to
get an early win, priced at $1.57
over the Reds ($2.40).
Despite being underdogs in round 1,
the Reds look the most capable out
of the Australian teams, priced at
$12 to win the championship. The
Crusaders are the overall
favourites to go all the way at
$4.50 ahead of the Chiefs and
Stormers at $7.00.
“The market suggests that the
Aussies may struggle this year,
with the Reds and Waratahs our best
hopes at $12 and $13. It looks set
to be a long year for the Rebels,

decision to stay the same firming

A decrease between 0.01 and 0.25%

commented on SNOWDEN DUO DOMINATE PRELUDE BETTING | | Punters believe Guelph or Montsegur
will stamp themselves as genuine
Blue Diamond Stakes contenders at
Caulfield tomorrow with the Darley
runners dominating betting on the
fillies Prelude with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
While Guelph is $1.80 favourite,
the Peter Snowden trained
stablemate Montsegur has been well
tried, firming from $4.60 into
$4.00. Of the rest, Blue Palace at
$11 is the only runner who has
attracted some punter support.
“It’s not surprising Montsegur has
been backed to beat the favourite.
This is a tricky circuit, she’s a
Caulfield winner and Guelph is
having her first start the
Melbourne way of going,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“But in saying that, Guelph also
has her supporters and will jump as
a firm favourite. There’s also been
a nibble for Blue Palace but the
Darley runners have been singled
out.”
Dissident ($3.40) is the favourite
in the colts and geldings Prelude
but it’s $6.00 shot The Bowler who
is the best backed on race eve. The
Snowden trained Kuroshio ($3.60) is
so far unwanted in betting.
In the C.F Orr Stakes, superstar
All Too Hard has eased slightly,
$2.30 out to $2.35 but remains the
best backed runner. Punters think
King Mufhasa poses the biggest
threat to Black Caviar’s
half-brother and has firmed from
$4.20 into $4.00 overnight.

commented on NOT ALL TOO HARD FOR $100,000 PUNTER | | Any doubt All Too Hard would not
start favourite in Saturday’s Orr
Stakes with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has been dispelled
with punters coming from everywhere
to back Black Caviar’s
half-brother.
It has been all one way traffic for
All Too Hard with the colt firming
from $2.70 into $2.30 on the back
of a $100,000 wager and a string of
smaller bets.
A midweek move for Callanish has
lost momentum with the Mick Price
four-year-old back out to $9.00
after firming into $6.00.
“There’s been a big move for All To
Hard, with one punter taking $2.60
for their $100k wager. All Too Hard
has been solid in betting yet
punters were keen to try Callanish,
but the weight of money for the
Guineas winner has blown everything
out of the water,’’
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson
said.
Veteran Kiwi topliner King Mufhasa
has also eased from $3.60 out to
$4.20. The Peter Snowden trained
Pinwheel has remained around the

online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
to stay the same.
At Black Caviar like odds, staying
the same has been well back and has
firmed from $1.20 into $1.03 over
the last week.
A decrease in the rate looks
unlikely but if it is to occur, a
decrease between 0.01 and 0.25% is

A decrease between 0.26 and 0.5%

sportsbet.com.au, we’re still going
to have to sit through 222 more
days of campaigning before we
vote.
$1.07 is on offer for the election
to be held on the announced
September 14, with the juicy odds
of $6.00 available should punters
think we’re headed to the polls
earlier.
And following another surge of
money for the Coalition, Tony
Abbott and co. are into their
shortest price since 2010 to win
the election and are now priced at
$1.17.
The Labor party continues to
balloon, drifting from $3.75 out to
$4.75 and are closing in on hitting
their biggest price since the 2010
election, which was $7.00 in June
2012.
“The recent polling speaks volumes
and the betting is following suit.
The Coalition moved into $1.20 by
Saturday afternoon and after a wave
of bets today, they’ve shorted into
$1.17,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes.
“In a two horse race, the Coalition
are looking at a ten length win
already!”

commented on TIGERS TO MISS THE FINALS AGAIN? | | Twelve wins got you into the NRL
finals last year and according to
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au,
the Wests Tigers might struggle to
see September action again in
2013.
Sportsbet.com.au has opened markets
on how many regular season wins
each NRL team will tally in 2013,
with seven teams having their line
set at less than 12 wins, including
the Tigers (over/under 10.5),
Roosters (11.5), Warriors (9.5),
Parramatta Eels (8.5), Gold Coast
Titans (7.5) and the St. George
Illawarra Dragons (7.5).
“The markets are telling us that
the Eels are tipped to win more
games than the Dragons which will
no doubt cause huge controversy,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“And if we go on last year with
twelve wins getting you in the
finals, Mick Potter’s Tigers could
be the biggest scalp of the
season!”
Premiers Melbourne and runners-up
Canterbury are favoured for most
wins, with both of their lines set
at 16.5 wins, with Manly (15.5),
Rabbitohs (14.5), Sharks (14.5),
Cowboys (14.5), Broncos (13.5) and
Newcastle (12.5) rounding out the
top eight.
The Panthers (6.5) are tipped to
win the least amount of games in
2013.

commented on BLACKBERRYS MARKET SHARE TURNS SOUR? | | Following the introduction of
Blackberry’s two new phone models,
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has framed a market on the
company’s expected market share at
the end of 2013.
A market share of under 5% stands
as the $2.50 favourite after
reports today of the company's
stock dropping 10%.
The clear outsider is a market
share of over 15%, priced at $13.
“The launch of the new phones was
expected to revive Blackberry’s
descending market share, but
consumer confidence has not been
repaid – the duopoly between
Samsung and Apple looks set to
continue with no room for the
Blackberry to improve their
position,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Brigitte Lowsby.

commented on K-RUDD STEERS CLEAR OF LEADERSHIP | | Former PM Kevin Rudd has ballooned
from $3.75 out to $6.00 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to be
Labor leader when we go to the
polls on September 14.
On the other hand, Julia Gillard
has firmed from $1.40 into $1.08.
“There was plenty of commentary
suggesting the Prime Minister
announced the election date to
stave off a leadership challenge
from Kevin Rudd, and despite his
return to breakfast TV against foe
Joe Hockey, punters couldn’t
disagree more and have backed Julia
Gillard staying as leader,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Like Gillard, Tony Abbott has
firmed into Black Caviar like odds
to be Liberal leader on September
14, tightening from $1.33 into
$1.08. His biggest threat, Malcolm
Turnbull, has drifted from $2.80
out to $4.00.
Despite a small surge of support
for Labor at $3.75 this morning, 75
percent of all money wagered on the
federal election winner market with
sportsbet.com.au has been for the
Coalition ($1.25).

commented on SAMSUNG TAKES A BITE OUT OF APPLE | | Despite Apple being voted the
world’s most innovative company,
punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au believe that
Samsung will end the year as the
market leader in smartphones with
their odds firming from $1.40 to
$1.10.
Conversely, Apple’s odds have
drifted from $2.80 to $5.00
following reports of lower than
expected demand for the iPhone 5 in
2012.
“The launch of the iPhone 5 was
expected to position Apple as

commented on ABLETT THEN DAYLIGHT FOR B&F BETTING | | Gary Ablett is the shortest priced
favourite with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au out of any player
to win their club championship,
priced at $1.45 to win the award
for the Suns in 2013.
His closest opposition will
seemingly come from young gun
Harley Bennell at $11 and Michael
Rischitelli at $15.
Other notable short priced
favourites for their respective
teams include Jobe Watson at $1.85
at Essendon, Matthew Boyd $2.35 at
the Western Bulldogs and Andrew
Swallow $2.30 at North Melbourne.
“Gold Coast’s young players are
improving, but Gaz is still at the
top of his game and it would take a
serious injury for him not to win
the Suns’ best and fairest yet
again,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
In other club markets, Patrick
Dangerfield has been tipped to step
up further and is the $3.00
favourite to win Adelaide’s B&F
ahead of Scott Thompson ($3.75).
Sydney’s Josh Kennedy also looks
set for another big year and is
$3.75 to be Sydney’s club champion
while West Coast’s B&F looks to be
a tough contest between Matthew
Priddis ($5.50), Scott Selwood
($6.50) and Dean Cox ($7.00).

commented on 2013 FEDERAL ELECTION | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened markets on all 150
electorates ahead of this year’s
Federal Election.
Currently, the Coalition is
favourite in 91 seats and the ALP
in 54. Independent Andrew Wilkie
and Katter’s Australia Party
founder Bob Katter are also
favourites in their respective
seats, while the Greens have no
favourites and three electorates –
Capricornia (QLD), Hindmarsh (WA)
and Werriwa (NSW) – are too close
to call.
In the overall election winner
market, Tony Abbott’s Coalition are
the $1.35 favourites, with Labor
the $3.30 outsiders. Three in every
four bets taken since betting

commented on PUNTER CLOSES IN ON MILLION DOLLAR PAY DAY | | It won’t just be Andy Murray and
Victoria Azarenka who will enjoy a
million dollar pay day should they
win the Men’s and Women’s
Australian Open titles over the
weekend.
If the duo win their respective
finals, a punter with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au will
collect $1,000,000 as they only now
need Murray and Azarenka to win to
successfully complete a 9-leg multi
bet they placed in October last
year.
Azarenka is the $1.66 favourite
against Li Na, while Murray is
priced at $2.00 in the Men’s
final.
Sportsbet.com.au eased the pain of
punters who backed Roger Federer in
tonight’s semifinal, refunding over
$110,000 thanks to its fifth set
‘no sweat’ refund special, which
sees head to head bets refunded if

The Exceed and Excel colt has
firmed from $3.20 into $3.00 and is
the favourite for the Blue Diamond

“When solid support comes for the

Miracles Of Life won’t need any
divine intervention to win the Blue
Diamond preview at Caulfield on
Saturday, with the Adelaide filly
the best backed runner with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Heading the betting at $3.20,
Miracles Of Life has attracted five
times the support of the next best
backed runner – Kerr ($8.00).
The Peter Snowden trained Montsegur
($3.80) splits Miracles Of Life and
Kerr in the betting.
“She’s unbeaten in her two Adelaide
starts, and despite it being her
toughest test and being away from
home, punters clearly rate her
chances,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben

The Peter Moody-Luke Nolen
combination hold the ace hand in
the colts and geldings preview.
Moody’s colt Thermal Current has
been well supported firming from

Thermal Current is rated a $31

there’s nothing surprising about
Black Caviar’s price to win the

February 16.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened the champion mare at
$1.15 to win the race for a third

“They say Lightning strikes twice

very well supported to win the
Rosehill Group 1.
Charlie Boy, an impressive winner
in his only race start, has firmed
from $21 into $12. Victorian filly
Villa Verde remains steady at $3.80
favourite.
“We were the first to go up with
Slipper markets and we were quickly
claimed with some decent bets for
Charlie Boy. Smaller wagers have
continued to come for him and he’s
easily the best backed runner in
the race,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben

Unraced Mr Jackman, trained by Gai

commented on VOTERS FOLLOW ABBOTT BUT GILLARD TWITTER QUEEN | | @JuliaGillard remains the $3.00
outsider to win this year’s Federal
Election but the taste of possible
defeat could be somewhat more
palatable with the PM the red hot
favourite to gain more Twitter
followers than nemesis
@TonyAbbottMHR between now and
election day.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has installed Gillard, who boasts
more than three times the Twitter
followers than Abbott, at $1.33 to
pick up more followers than Abbott,
who is the $3.00 outsider.
Unlike their party leader, the
@AustralianLabor is the $1.67
favourite to have more Twitter
followers than their biggest foe –
@LiberalAus ($2.10) – come election
day.
Sportsbet.com.au has also framed a
market featuring serial tweeters
@KRuddMP and @TurnbullMalcolm,
pitting the former party leaders up
against Gillard and Abbott in a
race to have the most followers
come election day.
KRudd is at the Black Caviar like
odds of $1.15, ahead of Gillard
($4.50), Turnbull ($9.00) and
Abbott ($10).
“12 months ago punters thought the
Labor party were a bunch of twits
but they’re pegging back the
Liberal party tweet by tweet,” said
@sportsbetcomau’s @Ben_Hawes.
Sportsbet.com.au also received a
$2,000 bet this morning on October
to be the month when the election
is held, with the punter standing
to collect $7,000. September
remains the $1.33 however.

it looks unlikely this trend will
continue in the early stages of
2013 according to punters, with the
RBA Interest Rate to stay the same
firming from $1.40 to $1.20 with

A decrease between 0.01 and 0.25%
is next in the market but has
drifted from $2.20 to $2.80.
A further decrease between 0.26 and

also looks unlikely at $41.
“Punters are convinced that the

commented on PATRIOTIC MONEY FOR OUR HUGH | | Fresh off him winning a Golden
Globe, punters with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au think
Hugh Jackman can add an Oscar to
his burgeoning trophy cabinet with
a flood of patriotic money coming
in for the big fella this
afternoon.
Jackman has firmed from $6.00 into
$5.00 to win the Best Actor
category and has attracted eight
times the bets compared to any
other actor.
However, the Aussie faces a huge
task to beat favourite Daniel Day
Lewis – who also won a Golden Globe
today – and has firmed from $1.14
into $1.10.
“Jackman’s odds aren’t as
miserables as they first appeared,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Punters are also giving Naomi Watts
some chance of an upset in the Best
Actress category – she’s firmed
from $21 into $15 but does remain a

commented on GAI SUPPORT RALLYING FOR MILLIONS | | Punters are starting to throw
support behind Gai Waterhouse in
her quest to win a fifth Magic
Millions Classic on the Gold
Coast.
Waterhouse has two runners Sweet
Idea and Certitude, but punters
have singled out Sweet Idea as the
one to back according to online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Sweet idea has firmed from $19 into
$17 and is the fourth best backed
horse in the race. Although Assail
is still race favourite, action
over the last 24 hours has forced
the Sydney filly’s price to ease
from $2.80 to $3.00.
Queensland runners Missy
Longstocking ($6.50) and Real
Surreal ($8.50) are the next best
supported runners and continue to
firm in betting.
“Rarely do punters desert Gai’s
horses in the big races and she is
a proven master at preparing
juveniles for the Millions.
Certitude ($17) has eased slightly,
but punters have shown their hand
as we’ve had a steady flow of money
for Sweet Idea,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.
Waterhouse has a strong chance of
completing the Classic-Guineas
double with smart three-year-old
Driefontein, who won the
two-year-old race last year.
Driefontein is $4.80 equal
favourite with Sizzling. The pair
are see-sawing for outright
favouritism ahead of another
Waterhouse runner No Looking Back
($5.50).
Sizzling is prepared by Brisbane
trainer Kelso Wood, who also has
Real Surreal in the Classic.
Sportsbet.com.au is offering $51
for Wood’s pair to complete the
double. Double odds are also
available for Waterhouse runners
and also the Robert Heathcote
pairing.

commented on QUADE TO GET THE JOB DUNNETT | | Rugby boy Quade Cooper has been
installed at the Black Caviar like
odds of $1.20 by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win his debut
fight after tonight announcing that
he will be taking on Muay Thai
veteran Barry Dunnett.
Dunnett has been opened as the
$4.00 outsider.
“Dunnett has a great resume as a
Muay Thai fighter but boxing is a
whole new beast. The early market
suggests he will find the going
tough against the fleet-footed
Cooper. It’ll be very interesting
to see if the punters are keen on
an upset though,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
With Cooper fighting on the
undercard of BFF Sonny Bill
Williams, who takes on South

commented on LOCALS ATTRACTING PLENTY OF MILLIONS INTEREST | | Assail holds favouritism for the
Magic Millions Classic but punters
are rallying behind Real Surreal
and Missy Longstocking.
Sydney filly Assail is the best
backed runner firming from $3.30
into $2.80 and remains the clear
favourite with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au. However, Eagle
Farm trained Real Surreal ($13 into
$10) and Missy Longstocking ($8.00
into $7.00) have received a steady
stream of support.
“In terms of wagering, Assail has
attracted double the money of any
other runner, but the two
Queensland horses have plenty of
admirers. They were both impressive
winners at their last start and are
acclimatised to the heat, which
could be a big factor come
Saturday,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
In the Millions three-year-old,
Sizzling and Driefontein are $4.80
equal favourites. Heza Jetsetter is
$9.00, but has attracted the same
amount of money as Sizzling and
they have been the best backed.

commented on OPRAH TO FIND ARMSTRONG’S BLOOD BANK? | | He owns seven of them but it’s
unlikely Lance Armstrong will wear
one of his yellow jerseys when he
gets interviewed by Oprah next
week, priced at $51 by online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to don
the lycra for the chat.
Thankfully, it looks unlikely that
Armstrong will follow in the
footsteps of chief Scientologist
Tom Cruise and jump up and down on
the couch during the much
anticipated interview, with the big
odds of $21 on offer for him to do
so.
But what we all want to know is
whether he will admit to doping,
but sportsbet.com.au’s market
suggests the Texan will stick to
his guns, with no admission priced
as the $1.67 favourite and $2.10
available for the Texan to admit to
doping.
Sportsbet.com.au has a raft of
other interview specials, including
will Lance’s partner appear on the
interview ($1.33), will Lance greet
Oprah with a kiss ($1.40), will he
cry during the interview ($2.80)
and whether or not Oprah will find
a secret blood bank in his house
($101).
“We think it’s unlikely he will go
all Tom Cruise and jump up and down
on the couch during the interview
but one thing is for certain, she
will be baying for blood,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Let’s at least hope he gets better
fashion advice than Tiger Woods
received ahead of his TV apology a
while back!”

commented on MARINERS DRIFT AS ROGIC SETS SAIL | | With the possible departure of
young gun Tomas Rogic to Scottish
side Celtic, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has drifted the
Central Coast Mariners from $3.30
out to $3.60 to win the 2012/13
A-League title.
Despite easing in the betting, the
Mariners do remain competition
favourites, but only just, with the
Melbourne Victory close behind at
$3.75. Adelaide United ($6.00),
Brisbane Roar ($8.50) and the
Western Sydney Wanderers ($10)
round out the top five in betting
to win the A-League this season.
Graham Arnold’s men also remain
favourites for the minor
premiership, priced at $1.67.
“The impending departure of Rogic,
and Matt Ryan for that matter,
hasn’t warned the punters off the
Mariners as they weren’t being
backed anyway. There’s been more
money wagered on six other teams to
win the A-League compared to the

commented on PUNTERS GO TOMIC CRAZY | | Australian punters have been swept
up in Bernard Tomic fever, with
more bets placed on him with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
the Australian Open than any other
player, even world number one Novak
Djokovic.
Tomic is currently priced at $51,
with his odds halved from $101
after he beat Djokovic at the
Hopman Cup on January 2nd.
One punter is supremely confident
Tomic can go all the way, betting
$1000 at $51 for a potential win of
$51,000.
He was priced at $31 after last
year’s Australian Open before
drifting out to $126 in early
December.
“He admits himself that he plays
better in Australia and with a new
girlfriend to impress, no doubt he
will be going all out. Besides, he
needs prize money to pay off all
those speeding fines,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Despite Djokovic being the $2.20
favourite, Andy Murray has also
been well backed, including one bet
of $10,000 at $3.40.

commented on STOSURS AUSSIE OPEN CURSE WILL CONTINUE | | Sam Stosur’s Australian Open hoodoo
will continue in 2013 according to
punters, with the former US Open
winner drifting from $26 to $34
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au after her first
round exit from the Sydney
International.
In a sign that punters think she
may struggle again, there has been
very little money for her to win
her first Australian Open title.
On the other hand Victoria Azarenka
($4.33) has received more than
three times the amount of money
than the short priced $2.00
favourite, Serena Williams.
“We usually see a lot of patriotic
money come the Australian Open, but
Stosur’s previous and recent form
has scared the punters right off,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
“Punters have obviously seen the
value is Azarenka including one bet
of $5,000 and seem convinced that
Williams is vulnerable.”
In the men’s competition, Novak
Djokovic remains the favourite at
$2.20 followed by Andy Murray
($3.40) and Roger Federer ($5.00).
Australia’s best hope remains
Bernard Tomic at $51, while former

is expecting huge support for
Assail to win the Magic Millions on
Saturday after the Clarry Connors
trained filly drew the rails
barrier for the Gold Coast
two-year-old Classic.
Assail is $3.00 favourite over
unbeaten Victorian gelding
Clevadude, a one-time equal
favourite, who has eased to $4.00
after drawing barrier 18.
“Money for Assail has started to

natural speed and will be right on

Local filly Missy Longstocking,
unbeaten in four starts, is a solid
third pick at $7.50.
Early Guineas favourite Sizzling
will jump from the outside barrier
and is an easing $4.50 favourite
for the three-year-old race.
Driefontein ($5.00) and No Looking

commented on DAN & DANI TIPPED TO BE BLOCK ALL STARS | | They may not have even picked up
their tools yet, but Dan and Dani
have been installed as the $2.50
favourites with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win The Block
All Stars.
They look to have some tough
competition however, with
youngsters Josh and Jenna next in
the market at $3.50.
The most experienced duo, tradies
Mark and Duncan, have also been
given some hope at $3.75.
Season one contestants Amity and
Phil have been tipped to be a bit
rusty and are outsiders at $4.00.
“Dan and Dani are the freshest
Block contestants after only
competing last year, so they will
still be on their game. Josh and
Jenna could give them a run for
their money, if they can ever stop
arguing!” said sportsbet.com.au’s

commented on WILL BERNIE'S NEW GIRL BE COURTSIDE AT AUSSIE OPE | | Expect to see plenty of Bernard
Tomic’s new squeeze Chelsey Grbic
on your TV screens this summer with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
tipping the Gold Coast stunner to
be courtside supporting the Aussie
at his Australian Open first round
clash next week.
Gribic cheering Bernie on courtside
has been priced at $1.62, with a
no-show the $2.20 outsider.
And while it looks like Grbic will
be at the Australian Open, it seems
the couple won’t be rushing things,
with $1.20 on offer that they won’t
get engaged in 2013, with yes at
$4.00.
“Grbic looks the perfect fit to
take over from Bec Hewitt as the
Queen WAG of the Aussie tennis
scene – that’s if she shows up for
Bernie’s first round match,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“At this rate though, Bernie will
soon be known as the new Marat
Safin!”
Punters can also have a crack at
what Grbic will wear when cheering
Tomic on, with a singlet top the
$1.80 favourite, ahead of a dress
($3.50), while Grbic wearing a
bikini ($21) looks unlikely.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened a
market on what TV network will be
the first to interview Grbic, with
Seven heading the betting at $1.33,
ahead of Nine ($3.50), Ten ($5.50)

with online bookmaker

The Cats have received more money
to win the premiership than any

“We opened them at $18 but they
have been heavily backed since day
one and are now into $12,” said

“They have recruited well and
topped up with the likes of Jarred
Rivers and Hamish McIntosh.
Obviously they think they are still
premiership contenders and the
punters agree!”
Collingwood have also been well
backed, while surprisingly last
year’s grand finalists Hawthorn and
Sydney have been friendless, with
even West Coast and Carlton
attracting more money.

A surplus is the outsider in the

While early money for this market

commented on EARLY XMAS PRESENT FROM THE BIG FOUR? | | Following the RBA’s decision to cut
interest rates by 0.25 percent this
afternoon, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on how many of the Big Four
banks will pass on the full rate
cut but any hope of an early
Christmas present for mortgage
holders looks unlikely.
None of the Big Four banks passing
on the full rate cut heads the
betting at $1.40, followed by just
one at $3.50, all four at $8.00,
only two banks at $9.00 and three
of the banks at $10.
Should any decide to pass on the
full rate cut, the NAB has been
installed as the $2.50 favourite to
do so, with Commonwealth ($3.00),
Westpac ($4.00) and ANZ ($5.00)
following.
“Most home owners would take a rate
cut of any size but the market
tells us that any hope of their
bank passing on the full rate cut
looks as likely as snow falling in
Australia in December,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
A decrease of between 0.01 and 0.25
percent has been opened as the
$1.83 favourite to be the RBA’s
next announcement, with rates stay

$1.90.

The Poms have firmed as a result,

It appears unlikely the baby will

Prince Harry and Pippa Middleton
are both $2.00 favourites to be the

“Word is that Kate has had bad

they will keep the name
traditional, otherwise the Queen
might lose it,” said

commented on ANYMORE LEADERSHIP CHALLENGES BEFORE WE VOTE? | | Despite polls suggesting voters
prefer Kevin Rudd and Malcolm
Turnbull over their respective
leaders, a market by online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
indicates the pair won’t challenge
for their party leadership before
the next federal election.
Sportsbet.com.au has framed a
market on whether there will be a
leadership challenge at either
party before the next election,
with ‘No’ the $1.50 favourite and
‘Yes’ the $2.50 outsider.
Punters can also back whether or
not either Julia Gillard or Tony
Abbott will be replaced before the
election, with ‘No’ priced at $1.40
and ‘Yes’ the $2.80 outsider.
“Although some polling suggests
Kevin Rudd and Malcolm Turnbull are
the preferred party leaders, the
markets is telling us that they
will at least hold fire on mounting
a leadership challenge before we
vote in 2013,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
The Coalition remains the $1.30
favourite to win the next election,
with Labor steady at $3.20.

The Heart are joined on the second

$17).
“PSG have been splashing the cash

in the A-League it seems the
Melbourne Heart is the club he’ll
suit up for,” said

commented on OMEARA FIRMS FOR RISING STAR | | Jack Viney has been replaced by
Jaeger O’Meara as the favourite to
win the 2013 Rising Star award,
with the Gold Coast midfielder
firming from $11 to $6.00 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Viney was the original favourite at
$9.00, however he has drifted out
to $10.
Although O’Meara is now the
favourite, Adelaide’s Brad Crouch
has been the best backed by
punters, receiving more bets than
any other player and firming from
$15 to $13.
“O’Meara has massive wraps on him
and has already had a year in the
system so he is the logical choice
and the punters have agreed,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
“The Crows have lost a heap of
draft picks but they still have
Crouch up their sleeve. He killed
it in the SANFL last year and has
easily been the best backed
player.”
GWS also have a number of players
in contention, with number one
draft pick Lachie Whitfield their
best hope at $14, Will
Hoskin-Elliott $16 and last year’s
number one pick Jonathon Patton
also $16.

only home team not opened as
favourites by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au for their opening
Big Bash match, priced as $2.54
outsiders against Shane Warne’s
Melbourne Stars ($1.50).
Defending champions the Sydney
Sixers are the $1.57 favourites to
beat cross town rivals the Sydney
Thunder ($2.37) at the SCG, while
the Brisbane Heat ($1.80) and Perth
Scorchers ($1.73) have been

respective home matches against
Hobart and Adelaide respectively.
“The Stars line-up is full of world
class players and they look to have
the measure of their home town
rivals. They are the shortest
priced side of all eight Big Bash
teams in the opening matches and
the early money indicates the
punters think they’ll be far too
good,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes.
The Stars ($4.75) are also the
early favourites for the 2012/13
Big Bash crown with punters having

“He wasn’t in the best form in

in Perth,” said sportsbet.com.au’s

In match betting, although the
Aussies have been the best backed
team, South Africa have firmed, in
from $2.75 to $2.60.
Australia remains favourites
despite drifting from $2.42 to
$2.45, while the draw has drifted
from $3.60 to $3.80.

commented on BOOKIE SUSPENDS MARKET ON GILLARD | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has suspended betting on its ‘first
leader to go’ market after a flood
of money for Julia Gillard
overnight saw her odds firm $3.75
into $2.10 to be shown the door
before the next federal election.
Gillard’s price had been as high as
$5.00 on November 22 but had firmed
into $3.75 by last night before
punters made their move.
No leadership change before the
next election is the slight
favourite at $1.75, but this price
has eased from $1.33 overnight.
Interestingly, punters look to have
singled out who they think will
take the Labor party reigns should
the PM exit, with Bill Shorten
backed from $13 into $7.00 to be
Labor leader at the time of the
next election.
“Punters were happy to back Gillard
at any price to be the first leader
to go,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“And they’ve targeted Bill Shorten
to be the one to take over. He’s
attracted the most bets of late in
the next Labor leader market, with
some support also for Bob Carr,
who’s firmed from $19 into $15.”
Tony Abbott being the first leader
to go before the election has eased
from $5.00 out to his biggest price
of $6.00.
Gillard has eased from $1.33 out to
$1.40 to be Labor party leader when

commented on SUNS AT LONG ODDS TO WIN FLAG WITHIN 3 YEARS | | Punters are not sharing Gold Coast
chairman John Witheriff’s optimism
that that Suns will win a flag
within three years, with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au pricing
them at $34 to win a premiership by
the end of the 2015 season.
And if they are to win one within
three years it doesn’t look likely
to be in the 2013 season, priced at
$501 along with GWS to win the flag
next year.
“No doubt they are a team on the
rise but according to our market
Witheriff may be getting a bit
ahead of himself, with punters not
really giving them much hope in the
short term,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

commented on PM DRIFTS AS PUNTERS MAKE THEIR MOVE | | In the immediate aftermath of Julia
Gillard’s press conference
performance today, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has seen a surge
of money for the Coalition to win
the 2013 federal election.
As a result, the Coalition has
firmed from $1.35 into $1.30, while
Labor has eased from $2.90 out to
$3.20.
And according to punters, Gillard’s
grip on the Labor leadership has
taken a hit, with the PM being
party leader come election time
easing from $1.25 out to $1.33.
Punters can also have their say on
whether or not recent events will
impact on Gillard’s approval
rating, with sportsbet.com.au
framing a market on what the PM’s
next satisfaction rating will be.
Her rate decreasing is the $2.10
favourite, followed by an increase
at $2.80 while it remaining
unchanged is at $3.50.
“After narrowing the gap to Tony
Abbott in the satisfaction stakes
over the last few months, the
market now suggests the public are
set to give her the cold shoulder,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“While the PM’s price to be Labor
leader when Australia goes to the
polls eases, Tony Abbott’s price on
the other hand has tightened from
$1.40 into $1.33.”

commented on FC TO WIN BATTLE OF SYDNEY | | They’re rock bottom on the league
table and four points behind their
cross town rivals but Sydney FC are
favourites with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to finish the
2012/13 A-League season higher on
the ladder than Western Sydney.
Sydney FC are priced at $1.56, with
the Western Sydney Wanderers the
$2.33 outsiders to finish the
highest.
Before the season had started, the
Sky Blues were at $1.16 to finish
higher than Western Sydney, who
were at the big odds of $4.65.
“The market suggests Sydney FC will
get their act together sooner
rather than later, and of course
there is the Del Piero factor,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
The Wanderers also remain
favourites to finish last this
season, priced at $3.10, with the
Melbourne Heart ($4.00), Sydney FC
($4.50) and Wellington Phoenix
($7.00) all under double figures.
Following their 2-1 win over
Brisbane yesterday, the Central
Coast Mariners have firmed into
$5.00 to win the A-League title,
with Adelaide ($5.50), Melbourne
Victory ($6.00) and Perth Glory
($7.00) following closely.

commented on MONEY COMES FOR SWANS AMONGST TIPPETT SPECULATION | | While his playing future is still
uncertain, punters are seemingly
confident that Kurt Tippett will
end up at the Sydney Swans, with
significant interest coming for
them to win the 2013 flag with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
They have received more bets than
anyone else over the last week and
are second in the market at $7.00,
only behind Hawthorn who have
drifted from $4.00 to $4.50.
“If he does end up at the Swans
they will become that much
stronger, so it looks like punters
are getting in early before their
price firms after he signs up,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson.
Despite all the controversy and
withdrawing from the first two
rounds of the National Draft, the
Adelaide Crows have still been
given some hope for next season, on
the fifth line of betting at
$9.00.
Overall Geelong have been the best
backed team and had more money put
on them than anyone else, firming
from $14 to $12 as a result.

championship, Sebastian Vettel has
been tipped to make it four in a
row, priced at $2.25 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win
the 2013 Formula 1 Championship.
Fernando Alonso looks likely to
give him the most opposition at
$3.50, while Australian Mark Webber
is seen as having a decent chance
at $15.
“Vettel was the man to beat this
year again and he doesn’t look like
he will be slowing down any time

favourite,” said sportsbet.com.au’s

commented on HEAVY SUPPORT FOR FAT AL IN RAILWAY | | Eastern invader Fat Al has been
well supported to steal the prize
from the local stars in tomorrow’s
Railway Stakes at Ascot.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has received solid backing for the
Epsom winner, who has firmed from
$8.00 into $6.00.
It is not surprising support has
come for Fat Al as the powerful Gai
Waterhouse-Nash Rawiller
combination is very popular with
punters.
Due to the heavy support of Fat Al
the defending champion and
favourite Luckygray, has eased from
$3.30 out to $4.40. Another local,
Ranger is a firm second favourite
at $5.00.
“The punters have obviously worked
out Fat Al is likely to get a soft
lead and he’s going to prove very
hard to run down. Luckygray carries
five kilograms more than he did
last year and is striving to be the
first horse in almost 50 years to
go back to back,’’
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson
said.
In the other Group 1 on the card,
the Winterbottom Stakes, favourite
Barakey and Travinator dominate
betting. Travinator has firmed from
$5.00 into $4.80, which has forced
the unbeaten Barakey to ease
slightly to $2.40.

sportsbet.com.au are adamant Kevin

their powder dry and won’t mount

Since Rudd and Turnbull’s

from $1.65 into $1.40 and is now
into $1.33.
“We haven’t even taken a bet on

commented on SMITH TO NAB CEO COMMON WEALTH | | Although the ANZ might not post the
biggest profit of the Big 4 banks
in 2013, CEO Mike Smith looks set
to take home the biggest pay cheque
according to a market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Smith heads the betting at $2.10 to
be the highest paid chief executive
next year, but does faces stiff
opposition from Westpac’s Gail
Kelly, who’s next in the market at
$2.20.
NAB boss Cameron Clyne follows at

Westpac ($3.50) follows Comm Bank
in the market to post the biggest

commented on SUPPORT SLOWS FOR TOP WINTERBOTTOM HOPE | | Barakey holds favouritism for the
Winterbottom Stakes but punters
have regrouped after the horse drew
the outside barrier for the Group
1.
Barakey is the best backed runner
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au and has been
favourite for the Ascot Group 1
since betting opened. However,
after drawing barrier 10 interest
has waned.
The five-year-old has eased from
$2.15 to $2.25, while the next best
backed is Hallowell Belle, who has
remained steady at $6.00. Another
local, Travinator, has been eased
from $4.80 out to $5.00.
“Since the barrier draw interest
has cooled in Barakey. The money
was coming for him at a steady rate
and although he still remains our
best backed runner the flow of
money has slowed,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“He has the speed to overcome the
bad gate and we’re expecting
support for him to fire-up again as
we move closer to race day.”
There was a similar reaction for
Railway Stakes favourite Luckygray,
who eased from $3.50 to $3.70 after
drawing barrier 12 in the 16-horse
field.
Fat Al firmed from $8.00 into $7.00
after drawing well in gate four.

commented on QANTAS TO JAG GOLDEN BALLS | | With British Airways hostesses
clamouring to get their hands on
Golden Balls even when he is
asleep, Aussie airline Qantas could
be the big benefactor out of David
Beckham’s little dispute with the
UK carrier.
Upset after being woken by BA staff
to pose for photos, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
opened a market on which airline
Beckham will fly to Australia on
should he travel down under to play
in the A-League and have installed
the flying kangaroo as the $2.50
favourite.
“This incident shows the lengths
people will go to to get their
hands on Golden Balls. Beauty sleep
is no doubt high on his priority
list so to hear he was woken up
mid-sleep is an outrage,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
BA haven’t been entirely ruled out
of flying Beckham to Australia and
are second in the market at $2.80,
followed by Emirates at $3.50 and
Virgin at $5.00.
“Becks has friends in high places
so we’ve got Air Force One in the
market, albeit at $251, and also
John Travolta’s private plane which
is priced at $501.”
Meanwhile, the Melbourne Heart have
surged to the top of betting to
secure the playing services of
Beckham, firming from $5.00 into
outright favouritism at $2.50 after
heaving punter support overnight.
Another big move in the betting has
been the Central Coast Mariners,
who’ve tightened from $10 outsiders
into $3.50, while Perth have eased
from $3.25 out to $3.50.

tipping there is no chance of
Malcolm Turnbull starting a new
political party, with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au pricing
‘no’ at $1.05.
‘Yes’ is seen as a long shot at

“It has been floated around a bit
that he is a chance to go his own
way, but he seems pretty keen to
stay with the Liberals but you
never say never,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
If he does start a new party, the
New Liberal Party is the $9.00
favourite be its name, with the
Real Liberal Party ($11), Australia
Party ($13) and Republican Party
($14) also in the mix.

commented on GLORY FOR PERTH IN CHASE FOR GOLDEN BALLS | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au continue to back
Perth to be the A-League club to
snare the signature of David
Beckham.
After firming from $8.00 into $3.75
yesterday, the Glory are now into
$3.25 and are the best supported
club in betting.
“Beckham announced he is finishing
up with the LA Galaxy so the race
is on in a big way. Punters
continue to think that if he plays
in the A-League it will be with
Perth,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
The Melbourne Heart remain on the

commented on MAROONS GET THE BLUES AS PUNTERS JUMP SHIP | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au have launched into
New South Wales winning the 2013
State of Origin series, backing
them from $2.20 into $1.90
following news the Blues will have
two home games next year.
Prior to the announcement, New
South Wales were the $2.20
outsiders and Queensland were the
$1.67 favourites, however an
avalanche of money for the Blues
this morning has seen the Maroons
ease out to $1.90.
“Since this morning, we haven’t
taken a single bet on Queensland to
win the series. Every bet placed
has been for New South Wales to
break the drought,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“73 percent of money wagered on the

the 2013 series. The punters know

commented on COOPER GOING, REDS EASE | | Quade Cooper’s departure from the
Queensland Reds has dented their
Super 15 hopes according to online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Cooper is reportedly quitting rugby
to take up boxing and his absence
from the Reds will be a huge blow
to their title hopes and as a
result they’ve eased from $11 out
to $13.
“The bottom line in all of this is
that his departure will leave a
huge hole in the Reds line-up. When
he played well for the Reds they
could beat anyone,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Super rugby’s most successful team,
the Crusaders, are $4.00 favourite
for this season’s title just ahead
of the Chiefs at $5.50, while the
Brumbies are the best priced
Australian franchise at $11.

The Japanese champion, who was

Orfevre ran in sharply in the Arc

2012 Melbourne Cup runners Mounth

“There is no doubting Orfevre is
the horse to beat, provided he runs

v South Africa Test Series looks a
real possibility, with a draw
during the Adelaide Test priced at
$2.50 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
After their fight back in the First
Test, Australia have been given the
best chance of either team to win
in Adelaide, priced at $2.90 with
South Africa outsiders at $3.15.
Punters are certainly thinking that
the Aussies can get it done in
Adelaide, with more than double the
money bet on them to win compared
to either the draw or South
Africa.
“The First Test showed that there
isn’t much between these teams,
however punters are really giving
the Aussies a lot of hope and think
they can get it done!” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

Perth’s budding Black Caviar has

Another local Travinator is $4.80
second favourite ahead of eastern

Power Princess at $7.50.
“This race has some quality
horseflesh but it looks made to
order for Barakey. He’s been super
impressive in his two wins this
prep, loves the track and is a
budding superstar,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Travinator is sure to come in for

the club to secure the services of
David Beckham with punters from
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
backing them from $8.00 into $3.75
and outright favourtism.
The only other team to firm in
betting to snare Beckham has been
Adelaide United, who’ve tightened
from $12 into $7.00.
“Numerous clubs have expressed
their interest but punters think
Tony Sage and the Perth Glory will

“He’s very much a metrosexual so

with almost the same amount of

As a result, Green has drifted from

“We opened Green as the short

Melbourne Victory heads the market

commented on EXPANDED SYDNEY AIRPORT ENTERS THE MARKET | | Badgerys Creek and Wilton continue
to head the betting to be the
location of Sydney’s second

current airport – The Kingsford
Smith – now looms as a real
option.
According to a market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au,
following in the footsteps of
cities like Hong Kong and expanding
current infrastructure is a
distinct possibility and enters the
betting at $5.00, only behind
Badgerys Creek and Wilton.
Badgerys Creek remains favourite at
$2.00 with Wilton next at $3.00 –
however both have slightly eased in
the betting.
“Expanding the Kingsford Smith
airport now looms as a viable
option. Hong Kong showed it could
be done, hence why expanding
Kingsford Smith has been added into
our market on the third line at
$5.00,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“We could frame a market on when a
decision will actually be made but
let’s not go there!”
All other options in the market
have drifted in betting.
“Badgerys Creek continues to be the

Merrick remains the best backed

Steve Corica, who is steady at

sportsbet.com.au aren’t convinced
the arrival of Sonny Bill Williams
will turn the Sydney Roosters into
a premiership force and are looking

Final winner.
Sportsbet.com.au saw minimal
amounts of interest for the
Roosters, currently priced at $19,
to win the 2013 title following
Williams’ lunch time press

competition has been the Brisbane
Broncos at $17, followed closely by
the Bulldogs ($7.00), Storm ($6.00)
and Sharks ($12).
“They’ve seemed to have identified
four teams that they think are
premiership threats, while at the
other end of the spectrum only the

commented on PUNTERS BACKING MERRICK | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au are tipping one of
Ernie Merrick, Miron Bleiberg or
Graham Arnold will become Sydney
FC’s next coach, with the trio
attracting the bulk of money
wagered on the market.
Merrick is currently the $5.00
favourite to take over from Ian
Crook and is the best backed option
by punters, while Bleiberg is next
at $6.00 and Arnold is at $7.50.
Current interim coach Steve Corica
is priced at $8.00, with other
Australian candidates in the market
including John Aloisi ($15), Phil
Stubbins ($15), Mike Mulvey ($17)
and Frank Farina ($34).
“Given his connection to Sydney FC
football director Gary Cole,
punters moved quickly to back Ernie
Merrick getting what seems to be a
poisoned chalice,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Punters also think they will go
with an Australian coach, with
money coming for Steve Corica at
$8.00 and Frank Farina at the big
odds of $34.”
Others in the market include
Gianluca Vialli ($15), Vlastimil
Petrzela ($17), Owen Coyle ($21),
Craig Levein ($21), Ricki Herbert
($26) and Steve Kean ($34).
Over the last fortnight, Sydney FC
have firmed from $26 into $8.00 to
get the wooden spoon and are out
from $6.50 to $11 to win the
A-League title this season.

commented on SCOTT MASTERS FAVOURITE | | Although Adam Scott is the $4.50
favourite with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the
Australian Masters this week,
Graeme Mcdowell has been the best
backed player by punters.
Mcdowell sits on the third line of
betting at $10 and has had more
than three times the money bet on
him than any other competitor, with
Ian Poulter also given some hope at
$5.50.
Stuart Appleby and Richard Green
are next in the market at $15,
while Stephen Dartnall has been the
best backed long shot, with support
coming for him at $67.
“Punters are seeing value in
Mcdowell at $10, with not a lot of
support yet for Adam Scott at
$4.50,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
“Stephen Dartnall is looming as a
dark horse and if he continues to
be backed at this rate he will
start much shorter than the $67
currently on offer.”

commented on PUNTERS ON THE TRAIL FOR EMIRATES WINNER | | Adelaide trained Happy Trails is
the best backed Emirates Stakes
runner with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Happy Trails opened at $17, drifted
to $21 before firming to $15,
holding more than double the money
than any other runner.
“It’s not surprising he has had
good support. Happy Trails did not
get the best of luck in the Cox
Plate and he has D. Oliver aboard
this time,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“He’s back to his pet distance here
and the punters obviously think he
can recapture the form that saw him
win the Feehan Stakes.”
In a wide open betting race,
Fawkner, prepared by Melbourne Cup
winning trainer Robert Hickmott, is
the $4.60 favourite. Fat Al and
Solzhenitsyn have both been solid
in betting at $7.00.
Ambidexter ($7.50) and Free
Wheeling ($7.00) have been unwanted
in betting and Yosei is the best
backed roughie at $26.

commented on PUNTERS KEEN ON VICTORY IN BIG BLUE | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au think the return
of Alessandro Del Piero will have
little impact on Sydney FC’s
fortunes when they host Melbourne
Victory this weekend with 70
percent of money wagered on the
match going on Ange Postecoglou’s
men.
The Victory have firmed from $3.30
into $3.10 while Sydney FC have
eased from $2.00 out to $2.20.
“The weight of money in
head-to-head betting has been on
the Victory to win in Sydney but
we’ve also seen a few cheeky wagers
on Melbourne winning 5-0 and 5-1 –
no doubt they’re Victory supporters
still enjoying what the Mariners
did to Sydney FC last weekend and
are hoping for more of the same,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Other well backed sides in round 6
include the Brisbane Roar at $1.95
against the Melbourne Heart ($3.75)
and the Central Coast Mariners at
$2.62 against Wellington ($2.50)
with the Mariners attracting a
staggering 97 percent of money
wagered on the match despite the
game being played in New Zealand.
Punters however can’t split the
Perth Glory ($3.30) in their match
with Adelaide ($2.10) and the
Western Sydney Wanderers ($2.70)
against the Newcastle Jets ($2.50)
with money even for each side.
If there is a red card in the ‘big

Melbourne Victory, Sportsbet.com.au
will refund losing first goal

commented on SIGNIFICANT STEP TO ADDRESS MATCH-FIXING | | Australia’s largest online wagering
company, Sportsbet is strongly
supportive of the establishment of
a new national unit to address
match-fixing and protect the
integrity of sport.
The initiative, which has been
announced by the Federal Minister
for Sport, Senator Kate Lundy, is a
positive innovation for sport,
wagering companies and Australian
consumers alike.
“The new national unit to address
match-fixing and protect the
integrity of sport is a significant
step forward in the battle to
minimise the incidence of
corruption in sport,” said the
Chief Executive Officer of
Sportsbet, Cormac Barry.
“For athletes, spectators, wagering
companies and those Australians who
like to place bets on sporting
events, it is imperative that every
effort is made to maintain the
integrity of sport.
“Sportsbet has a zero tolerance
policy on corruption in sport (and
racing), which is why we strongly
favour harsher penalties for those
who break the rules and that
illegal betting should be shut
down.
“Minister Lundy together with her
State and Territory counterparts
deserve credit for working together
to bring about this important
initiative.”
Sportsbet has pledged to continue
to work closely with major
Australian sporting organisations
(and racing bodies) to help combat
match-fixing.
“One of the most effective ways of
minimising corruption in Australian
sport is to ensure that the
overwhelming majority of bets on
Australian sporting events are
placed with reputable
Australian-based companies and not
the thousands of unregulated
foreign websites that currently
offer odds on Australian sport,” Mr
Barry said.
“Australian-based companies like
Sportsbet have a long-standing
commitment to share information
about unusual bets and betting
patterns with major sporting and
racing bodies, as well as to pay
product fees to those
organisations.” | | November 07 2012 |

commented on PUNTERS WITH ZYDECO IN THE OAKS | | Punters are pinning their faith in
Zydeco to salute in tomorrow’s
Group 1 VRC Oaks at Flemington.
Zydeco has been extremely well
supported with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au and is a solid
$2.50 favourite for tomorrow’s
major.
Sydney filly Dear Demi has eased
slightly and is currently second
favourite at $4.00 with Summerbliss
($6.00) the only other runner under
double figures.
“Zydeco was really impressive
winning the Wakeful Stakes last
Saturday, a race which has supplied
plenty of Oaks winners. The money
has just kept coming for her and
she is dominating betting,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Punters with sportsbet.com.au will

commented on BOOKIE PAYS OVER $700,000 EXTRA ON MELBOURNE CUP | | Punters who backed Kelinni to run a
place in today’s Melbourne Cup with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
will be cheering despite his fourth
placed finish.
Sportsbet.com.au was paying four
places on Australia’s great race
and this evening paid out $732,834
to more than 15,000 of its
punters.
“Kelinni ran a gallant race and the
15,174 punters who backed him to

up a bit under the weather after
collecting more than $700,000,”

commented on FIORENTE 2013 MELBOURNE CUP FAVOURITE | | The Gai Waterhouse trained
Fiorente, runner-up in today’s
Melbourne Cup, has been installed
as the $13 favourite for the 2013
edition by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Mount Athos follows Fiorente in the
betting at $13, with Michelangelo
next at $17 and today’s Cup winner
Green Moon, who’s on the fourth
line of betting at $21.
Gatewood and My Quest For Peace are
also priced at $21, with other
notable inclusions in the market
including Ethiopia, Brigantin,
Jakkalberry, Americain, Red
Cadeaux, Dunaden, Mourayan,
Kelinni, Zydeco and Manighar (all
$26).
“Fiorente is likely to be penalized
2kg as Red Cadeaux was last year
and is open to improvement having
been under Gai’s care for only a
short time,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“Mount Athos, who is next at $13,
was very unlucky today. After
missing the start, he was involved
in a scrimmage at the 700m mark
before recording the fastest
finishing sectionals in what was a
slowly run race. If Luca Cumani
elects to bring him back next year
he will be very popular.”

Melbourne Cup first four pool,
turning a bet of 8 cents into
$77,552 after selecting Green Moon,
Fiorente, Jakkalberry and Kelinni

commented on BENJAMIN FAVOURITE TO WIN BIG BROTHER | | Benjamin has timed his run

favourite to win Big Brother with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Estelle is next in the market at
$2.30, with Layla the outsider at
$4.50.
“He has hardly attracted interest
from punters for the entire show,
but as soon as he was named in the
top three all the money has been
for him,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
“We were a bit embarrassed when
Michael got kicked out last night
after paying out on him as the
winner a month ago, but with only a
day left we are confident Benjamin
is now the one to beat!”
Benjamin started as a $10 chance

commented on PUNTERS KEEP COMING FOR INTERNATIONAL RAIDERS | | With just on 24 hours to go until
they jump in the 2012 Melbourne
Cup, money continues to come for a
host of international runners to
take out the race that stops the
nation.
$6.50 favourite Americain is the
best backed horse with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au,
narrowly ahead of 2011 winner
Dunaden, who is on the third line
of betting at $7.50.
Last year’s runner-up Red Cadeaux
is the third best supported runner,
firming from $10 into $9.00 on
Monday, with the Luca Cumani
trained Mount Athos the next best
backed despite being the second
favourite at $7.00.
“It has been sustained and
confident punting on the big four
international runners to win the
Melbourne Cup,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.
“Between them, they’re attracting
all of the big bets and the vast
majority of the rest too. Today
alone we’ve seen several bets of
$20,000 on Dunaden at $7.00 and
$10,000 at $7.00 on Americain.”
Sportsbet.com.au does expect
patriotic support for Aussie
hopefuls Maluckyday and Ethiopia to
come in thick and fast on Cup day
morning.
Maluckyday, currently priced at
$13, is the best backed runner
outside the big four, with one
punter putting $5,000 on Maluckyday
at $15 for a collect of $75,000.
Sportsbet.com.au is also paying
four places in this year’s
Melbourne Cup so if you’re horse
runs fourth in the great race, you
will still get paid!

commented on NO INTEREST RATE CUT | | Most Aussies will be hoping they
can pick the Melbourne Cup winner
tomorrow and plenty will be hoping
for an interest rate cut too and
now punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au can bet on both.
Sportsbet.com.au has installed no
interest rate change and Americain
winning the Cup as the $9.00
favourite, just ahead of no rate
change and Mount Athos saluting at
$10.50.
A rate cut and Americain winning
the race that stops the nation is
next at $11, followed by Dunaden
saluting and no rate change at
$11.50.
“Savvy punters not only like their
chances of backing the Melbourne
Cup winner but also what the RBA
will do with interest rates and in
doing so are snapping up the value
on offer,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“Most of the money has been for the
favourite Americain and for rates
to stay on hold at $9.00 and in
what looks like a clear message to
the RBA, we haven’t seen a cent for
options in the market that include
a rate hike!”

commented on MALUCKYDAY CARRYING NATION’S HOPES | | With international raiders in the
box seat for another Melbourne Cup
win, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened an
“Australian only” market on the
race that stops the nation.
Punters can back who they think
will be the best placed
Australian-trained horse in the
race regardless of whoever is first
past the post.
Maluckyday heads the Aussie
contingent at $5.50, with Green
Moon ($6.50), Lights Of Heaven
($8.50), Ethiopia and Kelinni (both
$9.00) in all contention.
“Three weeks ago Glencadam Gold was
the favourite in the Aussie only
Melbourne Cup market but a lot of
water has passed under the bridge
since then and now Maluckyday is
carrying the weight of the nation
on his broad shoulders,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened
the same market for ‘International
only’ runners, with Americain the
$3.20 favourite ahead of Dunaden
($4.80), Mount Athos ($4.80) and
Red Cadeaux ($6.50).
Americain has eased from $5.00 out
to $5.50 to win the race, while
Mount Athos has bumped Dunaden off
the second line of betting, firming
from $8.00 into $7.00 with Dunaden
easing from $6.50 out to $7.50.
Sportsbet.com.au is also paying
four places in this year’s

runs fourth in the great race, you
will still get paid!

commented on NECHITA IS HOT FOR COOLMORE | | Classy filly Nechita is the one
punters want in the Coolmore Stakes
firming from $4.00 into $3.70 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
“Her stunning gallop at Flemington
on Tuesday obviously did not go
unnoticed. She is easily the best
backed runner in the race and the
support just keeps coming,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“Nechita resumes from a spell and
if she can recapture her form from
the Sydney autumn she will be hard
to beat.”
However, she faces a crack field
which includes last start Caulfield
winner Snitzerland, who also has
admirers, but her quote has eased

more than half the field has
support to beat her.
The New South Wales Horse of the
Year is currently the $3.00
favourite with online bookmaker

Streama remains the clear cut
favourite and she has taken double
the money than anyone else but a
wealth of other runners have also
been well backed.
Secret Admirer ($7.00), Yosie

Tracer, Oasis Bloom and Soft Sand

support from punters.
“It is rare to see a betting
pattern like this. Away from
Streama we have seven or eight
runners with almost identical
support,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“Throw in roughies Raspberries
($26) and Full Spirit ($19) and
there is very little between them

commented on FIFTH GROUP ONE A WALK IN THE PARK | | Ocean Park looks set to join an
illustrious group of Cox
Plate-Mackinnon Stakes winners
according to punters with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
The Kiwi star is priced at $1.55 to
make it five consecutive Group 1
triumphs and has attracted just
under 60 percent of all money
wagered on the market with
sportsbet.com.au.
Should anyone be able to end Ocean
Park’s winning streak punters think
it will be Caulfield Cup runner up
Alcopop, who has tightened from
$5.00 into $4.80 since Wednesday
and is the only runner to firm in
the seven horse market.
“Four times the money has been bet
on Ocean Park compared to the next
best backed runner Alcopop which
speaks volumes,” sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes said.
“Of the rest, December Draw, who is
$8.50 out to $9.00, has attracted
some punter support but the
overwhelming thought out there is
that Ocean Park will be just too
good for them.”

commented on IT'S NOT A DUNDEEL WITH PUNTERS JUST YET | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au now seem somewhat
unconvinced It’s A Dundeel can
salute in tomorrow’s VRC Derby with
the Kiwi star easing in betting for
the Group 1.
It’s A Dundeel has eased from $2.80
out to $2.90 since Wednesday, and
while remaining the best backed
runner, interest has cooled
slightly.
Interestingly though, punters are
still yet to identify which runner
they think can overpower It’s A
Dundeel with money coming for
Honorius ($6.00 out to $6.50),
Hvasstan ($6.50 out to $7.00) and
Super Cool (steady at $7.00).
“We opened It’s A Dundeel at $2.70
and money came thick and fast but
as the week has gone on the tide
has shifted towards another upset,
but which horse it’ll be is yet to
be called out by punters,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Hvasstan has been the horse best
backed to beat the Kiwi colt,
closely followed by Super Cool.
Obviously It’s A Dundeel’s run in
the Vase has kept punters thinking
and while many have backed him to
atone in the Derby, many remain
unconvinced.”
In the last 48 hours, the only
runner to firm in betting has been
Malabar Man, $21 into $17.

commented on BROOMSTICK BOSS SET TO DOMINATE | | The racing adage used for in-form
jockeys “win on a broomstick”
certainly applies to Glen Boss at
the moment.
Such is Bossy’s popularity with
punters online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has framed two
markets specific to the champion
jockey for Derby day.
Fresh from his success on Ocean
Park in the Cox Plate, Bossy is
$1.55 to add another Group 1 to his
tally at Flemington on Saturday,
$5.00 to win two, $41 to win three
and $3.60 not to win a major.
Ocean Park should give him a win in
the Mackinnon Stakes. Boss also has
rides in two other Group 1’s. He
rides Hvasstan in the Victoria
Derby and Yosei in the Myer
Classic.
“Bossy could ride a winner on the
moon the way he is going at the
moment. Ocean Park looks his best
chance of getting another Group 1,
but he also has solid mounts in two
other big races,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Boss is long odds of $7.50 not to
ride a winner of any race and $19
to notch four on the day. One win
and two wins have been priced at
$2.35 and $2.45 respectively.

commented on PUNTERS CONTINUING TO LOOK ABROAD FOR CUP WINNER | | International invaders are
continuing to prove very popular
with European horses dominating
Melbourne Cup betting with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
French stayers Americain ($5.50)
and Dunaden ($7.00) have had a
see-sawing battle in the popularity
stakes. Last year’s winner Dunaden
has stolen back the mantle from the
2010 Cup winner, as the best backed
runner.
However, after a glowing trackwork
report from new race jockey Damien
Oliver, Americain firmed in from
$6.00 overnight.
Other invaders Mount Athos ($9.00
into $8.00) and Red Cadeaux ($12)
have also had support and round out
the top four of the best backed
runners.
Maluckyday ($10 out to $12) leads
the charge for the Aussies and is
the best backed local hope, ahead
of Ethiopia, who has had support at
$17.
“The invaders are the only ones
punters seem to want. Dunaden is
currently the best backed horse in
the Cup, but that could change with
the support that is arriving for
Americain,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
Galileo’s Choice continues to move
towards the top of betting, firming
from $21 into $17, while Green Moon

commented on DERBY DRAW NO BARRIER FOR KIWI | | A wide barrier has not stopped
punters from continuing their
betting onslaught on It’s A Dundeel
to win the Victoria Derby.
The Kiwi drew barrier 10 in the 16
horse field and his price quickly
firmed into $2.80 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
“He’s the horse the punters want.
We opened him at $3.00 earlier in
the week and the support has
continued, with some solid interest
since the barrier draw,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Honorius has moved onto the second
line of betting from $7.00 into
$6.00 with Hvasstan, who drew just
inside It’s A Dundeel, easing
slightly, $6.00 out to $6.50.
Other notable movers include Super
Cool ($7.00 into $6.00), Jimando
($17 out to $21) and Our Desert
Warrior ($26 into $21).
Fellow Kiwi raider Ocean Park looks
set to continue on his winning
ways, this time in the Mackinnon

genuine chance to win the show,
with Estelle firming from $7.00 to

Michael remains the favourite to

Amazingly she has been the outsider
in the market for the majority of

win. However she has continued to
grow in popularity with punters in
recent weeks.
Layla is next in the market at
$3.75 followed by Benjamin ($10),
Zoe ($11) and Sam ($34).
Sam is the $2.10 favourite to be
the next contestant evicted from

next week’s $100 million Lotto draw
with a market from online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au tipping it will
finally go off.
After jackpotting twice, the $100
million prize finally being won has
been installed as the $1.33
favourite, with it jackpotting
again the $3.00 outsider.
According to sportsbet.com.au, one
lucky person looks set to win the
$100 million with a sole winner the
$1.50 favourite, ahead of two
($2.50), three ($9.00) or four or
more winners ($11).
And the most important question of
all – where will that lucky person
come from?
New South Wales heads the betting
at $2.30, followed by Victoria
($3.00), Queensland ($6.00),
Western Australia ($8.00), South
Australia ($10), Tasmania ($15),
the ACT ($19) and the Northern
Territory ($21).
“If you didn’t get a ticket in the
$50 or $70 million draws then
perhaps this is a sign from above,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“No doubt there will be a lot of
punters dreaming of picking the

commented on LABOR INTO SHORTEST ODDS SINCE 2011 | | The Coalition has drifted out to
its biggest odds since December
2011 to win the next federal
election, easing from $1.28 out to
$1.40 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
On the other hand, the ALP have
firmed from $3.25 into $2.80 –
their shortest price since December
last year.
“We are seeing more and more small
wagers being placed on Labor to win
the next election hence them
firming in the betting,”
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
“While the big bets are continuing
to come for the Liberals, including
wagers of $2,000 and $3,000 this
week alone. Overall, money is still
three to one in favour of the
Coalition but the support for Labor
is certainly growing.”
Sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on which party leader – Tony
Abbott or Julia Gillard – will be
sacked first, with Gillard at $2.50
and Abbott at $3.00, while the
leaders not changing is priced at
$1.80.
Abbott remains the favourite to be
the Liberal leader at the time of
the next election despite easing
from $1.20 out to $1.30, while
Gillard has firmed from $1.40 into
$1.33 to be Labor leader come
election time.

has installed quality Sydney mare
Sea Siren as the $3.80 favourite
for the Patinack Farm Classic on
the last day of the Flemington
carnival.
Sea Siren will be striving to
complete a Group 1 double for the
spring, a feat she achieved in
Brisbane during the winter.
The John O’Shea trained mare was an
impressive winner of the Group 1
Manikato Stakes at her last start,
while in Brisbane she won the BTC
Cup and Doomben 10,000.
“She is entitled to be favourite on
the way she left them standing at
the Valley. A lot of those horses
she beat, like Buffering and Mental
will find it hard to turn the
tables, especially after Pumper
(jockey Jim Cassidy) said there was
more improvement to come,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Howmuchdoyouloveme ($4.50) and

commented on LEBRON, WADE & CO. TIPPED TO GO BACK-TO-BACK | | On the eve of the 2012/13 NBA
season, the Miami Heat are the
$3.34 favourites with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to make
it back-to-back championships.
With Dwight Howard and Steve Nash
now on their roster, the LA Lakers
are next in the market at $4.00

($12.25), Howard ($14.75), Deron
Williams and Russell Westbrook
(both $17.25).
“The Miami Heat have bolstered
their roster in the off season,
including adding Ray Allen, so
they’ve gotten better and are
clearly the team to beat,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“The LA Lakers have signed Dwight
Howard and Steve Nash to compliment
Kobe Bryant so look a scary
proposition, while we expect the

once again.”

commented on WANDERERS FAVOURITES FOR THE FIRST TIME | | After knocking off champions
Brisbane at the weekend, the
Western Sydney Wanderers have been
installed favourites for an
A-League match for the first time
in their history with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au pricing
them at $2.50 for their round five
clash with the Melbourne Heart
($2.70).
The Wanderers have eased from $1.57
out to $1.91 to finish with the
wooden spoon after their 1-nil win
and have firmed from $51 into $26
to win the A-League title – but
still remain the biggest outsiders
in the market.
In other round 5 betting, all of
the home teams – Central Coast
($1.95), Perth ($2.00), Brisbane
($1.67) and Melbourne Victory
($2.30) – have been installed
favourites for their respective
games.
“The Wanderers got out to $10 just
before kick-off against the Roar
but thoroughly deserved the win and
with the Melbourne Heart dropping
their last two games, Western
Sydney have been opened up slight
favourites for their clash this
weekend,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes.
The Roar remain title favourites
despite easing from $4.00 out to
$4.50, while five teams – Sydney
FC, Newcastle, Perth, Adelaide and
Mariners – share the second line of
betting at $6.50.
The Melbourne Heart have firmed
from $6.00 into $3.30 to get the
wooden spoon.

commented on DERBY A DUNDEEL FOR PUNTERS | | It’s A Dundeel has eased in
Victoria Derby betting but is still
the one that punters want according
to online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
The Kiwi three-year-old’s stocks
for the Classic took a hit when he
was beaten by Derby rival Super
Cool at Moonee Valley last
Saturday.
However, while his price has eased
from $1.90 to $3.00, It’s A Dundeel
has remained popular with punters,
taking three times the amount of
money than the second best backed
runner Hvasstan, who is solid at
$6.00.
“It’s A Dundeel was beaten fair and
square at the Valley, but punters
are probably of the belief he will
be better suited at Flemington,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Those that burnt their fingers,
taking the short odds last
Saturday, are obviously keen to get
something back. The horse looks an
out and out stayer so the bigger
track will definitely suit him and
there is no risk he will run out
the 2500m.”
Geelong Classic winner Solemn has
had admirers and remains firm in
betting at $5.00. Super Cool is
steady at $7.00 and Subiaso is the
best backed roughie at $17.

punters as the horse to beat in
Saturday’s Cox Plate.
Since drawing barrier five for the
Moonee Valley Group 1, online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
reported unprecedented backing for
the six-year-old.
Green Moon remains steady as the
$5.00 second favourite behind
three-year-old Pierro, who has
eased from $3.70 to $3.80.
“Green Moon is easily the best
backed runner. We have taken more
bets and more money on the gelding
than any other runner,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“Green Moon was impressive winning
the Turnbull Stakes and handles the
Valley. There is also the Craig
Williams factor, the punters love
him.
“Williams is also in great form
winning the Caulfield Cup last week
on Dunaden and he’s trying to
complete the Cup-Cox Plate double
for the second year running.”
Other three-year-olds Proisir and
All Too Hard have also attracted
punters interest. The Waterhouse

commented on OBAMA DRIFTS, BUT ATTRACTS $10,000 BET | | The overall feeling may have been
that Barack Obama won the last
debate, however punters still think
Mitt Romney has a shot of becoming
the next US President, with the
Republicans firming from $2.88 to
$2.50 to win the election following
strong punter support with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
As a result Obama and the Democrats
have drifted from $1.40 to $1.53.
Regardless of the late surge of
punter support for Romney, the
Democrats have still attracted more
than three times the money than the
Republicans and twice the amount of
bets.
However one punter was quick to
jump on the Democrats after their
price drifted, placing a bet of
$10,000 on Obama at $1.53.
“Obama has been the favourite since
day one and although he is in front
with the betting market, punters
are still giving Romney some chance
and his price continues to firm as
the election gets closer,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

win the 2013 Tour de France
according to a market from online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au which
has priced the Australian as a $23
chance.
Evans was the $2.50 favourite for
last year’s Tour with
sportsbet.com.au.
Spaniard Alberto Contador has been
installed as the $2.37 favourite,
with Chris Froome seemingly his
biggest rival for overall honours,
next at $3.50.
2012 winner Brad Wiggins and Andy
Schleck are next in the market at
$9.00, followed by Joaquin
Rodriguez at $21 and then Evans at
$23.
“Aussie punters still think Cadel
is in with a big show as he is the
best backed competitor by a fair
margin which has seen his price
shorten from $26 into $23,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“In the battle between Contador and
Froome, punters are torn at the
moment with money almost identical
for each rider.”
Aussies Richie Porte ($126), Simon

commented on DUNADEN HOLDS FIRM, GATEWOOD INTO $11 | | Gatewood has firmed from $21 into
$11 and onto the fifth line of
betting with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au for the 2012
Melbourne Cup after saluting in the
Geelong Cup this afternoon.
French stayer Dunaden continues to
head the Melbourne Cup market at
$6.50, easing slightly from $6.00.
Dunaden, the best backed runner for
the Cup with sportsbet.com.au, is
followed in the betting by 2010
winner Americain at $9.00, Mount
Athos ($9.00 out to $10), Brigantin
($11 into $10), Red Cadeaux and
Green Moon (both $12).
Tac De Boistron has ballooned from
$21 out to $34 following his run in
the Geelong Cup, while Maluckyday
has tightened into $17 from $26.
“Dunaden and Americain continue to
attract the bulk of money at this
stage but today’s Geelong Cup was
run at a very slow tempo and that
plays right into Gatewood’s hands,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“He’s a lightly raced stayer with a
turn of foot and of course drops in
weight for the Melbourne Cup so we
expect punter support to grow as we
near the Cup.”

Buffering into $2.00 for Friday

Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
is reporting one-way traffic for
the Queensland sprinter to win the
Moonee Valley Group 1, who’s

wagered on the race and his price
has plummeted from $2.30.
“We’ve had double the amount of

Ben Hawes said.
“It is not surprising he’s the only
one punters want, considering he
chased home Black Caviar a few

keeps coming for Buffering he will
probably start in the red.”
The only other firmer in the race

commented on PUNTERS LIKE BARRIER 11 TOO | | Singo might be upset about Gai
Waterhouse picking barrier 11 for
More Joyous but it hasn’t deterred
punters with the champion mare
firming from $10 into $9.00 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
to win Saturday’s Cox Plate.
Pierro remains favourite for the
Group 1 but has eased from $3.60
out to $3.70, ahead of Green Moon
($5.00), Ocean Park ($5.50 out to
$6.00) and Proisir ($8.00 out to
$9.00).
With three of the top five in
betting, sportsbet.com.au has
opened a market pitting
Waterhouse’s runners up against
each other, tipping Pierro ($1.65)
to have the measure of Proisir
($3.75) and More Joyous ($4.40).
“All of the runners ahead of More
Joyous in the market have either
eased or remained steady in the
last 24 hours so that alone
indicates there is good punter
support for the super mare,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“We’ve got More Joyous as the $4.40
outsider in a market against
stalemates Pierro and Proisir. If
anyone was going to make that look
silly it’s her.”
Other notable moves in betting
include All Too Hard firming from
$11 into $10, Shoot Out tightening
from $26 into $21 and Southern

commented on BIG FOUR HARD TO SPLIT ON GLITTER STRIP | | Jamie Whinchup and co-driver
Sebastian Bourdais have been opened
as the $3.25 favourites for the
Gold Coast 600 by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Fellow Team Vodafone pairing Craig
Lowndes and Richard Lyons are next
in the market at $5.00, followed by
Ford’s Will Davison and Mika Salo
($5.00) and Mark Winterbottom and
Will Power ($5.50).
“The big four are always at the
pointy end of the betting ahead of
each race weekend and while little
separates them, Jamie Whincup and
Sebastian Bourdais, who saluted
here in 2011, are very hard to go
past as favourites,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“Unsurprisingly the majority of
early money has been for both
Whincup and Lowdnes but they’re
closely followed by Winterbottom
and Power.”
“Of the rest, there has been some
interest for Garth Tander and Ryan
Briscoe at $12 and a nibble for
Shane Van Gisbergen and Jeroen
Bleekemolen at $24.”

commented on PUNTERS NARROW DJ’S TO THREE | | Sydney gelding Lightinthenite heads
a trio of well supported runners
for the David Jones Cup at
Caulfield tomorrow.
Lightinthenite has been well backed
firming from $4.00 into $2.90 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
The John O’Shea gelding has taken
double the money than any other
runner, including second favourite
Prairie Star, who is solid at
$7.00. Waterford Hill is the only
other runner punters want, firming
from $8.00 into $7.50.
“Punters appear to have narrowed
this race down to the three
chances, with Lightinthenite the
main one they have come for. His
effort to finish fourth to Fat Al
in the Epsom was first class,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“The imports are the flavour of the
month and it is not surprising the
French horse Prairie Star has been
solid. He’s Group 1 placed in
France and by all reports the
stallion thrived in quarantine at
Werribee.”
Patinack runner Maules Creek
($7.50) has surprisingly been
unwanted by punters. Only $11
chance Proliferate has had less
money wagered on him than Maules
Creek.

commented on BLEDISLOE ALL-BLACK OUT FOR THE WALLABIES | | The Wallabies are given no chance
of victory by punters in their
Bledisloe Cup match against the
All-Blacks in Brisbane tomorrow
night, drifting from $5.75 out to
$6.75 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Under the weight of punter support,
New Zealand have firmed from $1.13
into $1.11, with the line ominously
set at 14.5 points ($1.92).
“Week in, week out, punters have
steered clear of the Wallabies and
once again they’ve hopped into
their opponents in a big way,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
The All-Blacks winning by 13 or
more points is the $1.62 favourite
in margin betting, while the
Wallabies 1-12 is paying $7.50.
If Australia lose by 10 points or
less, or win the match,

commented on PUNTERS STICK WITH GAI, DECEMBER DRAWS NEARER | | Glencadam Gold remains the $5.00
favourite and best backed runner
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win tomorrow’s
Caulfield Cup.
Since the barrier draw, Glencadam
Gold has drifted from $4.00 out to
$5.00 but has still attracted 20
percent of all money wagered on the
market.
While some punters stick solid with
Gai Waterhouse’s runner, others
have switched their focus onto
December Draw, with the Mark
Kavanagh trained star now the
second best backed runner, firming
into $6.50, attracting 13 percent
of all money.
Dunaden ($8.00 out to $9.00) has
attracted 11 percent, My Quest For
Peace ($10) 8.8 percent, Alcopop
($15 into $13) 8.1 percent and
Jakkalberry ($21) 6.1 percent are
the other better supported
runners.
“Money is still coming in for
Glencadam Gold. Not as much as it
was prior to the barrier draw but
punters are not giving up on him
just yet and he’s remained steady
at $5.00 over the last 24 hours,”
said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“It seems the punters have at least
narrowed it down to six. With
Dunaden, Jakkalberry, December
Draw, Glencadam Gold, My Quest For
Peace and Alcopop attracting around
55 percent of all the money wagered
so far.”

commented on CAN DUNADEN BREAK THE PISCES HOODOO? | | A horse with the Pisces star sign
has not won the Caulfield Cup for
20 years, not a good omen for third
favourite Dunaden ($8.00) ahead of
Saturday’s Caulfield Cup.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened a market on which star
sign will take out the Caulfield
Cup, installing Sagittarius,
Scorpio, Taurus and Virgo as the
joint $2.00 favourites.
“The star sign form would have you
rule out Piscean’s Dunaden, My
Quest For Peace, Jakkalberry and
Gatewood should he get a start but
you’d be brave writing them off
just yet,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Ben Hawes.
“$5.00 favourite Glencadam Gold is
a Taurus and despite the wide
barrier remains the one to beat but
at the end of the day punters could
well be advised to put a call into
Jonathan Cainer and see if he
knows.”
Next in the market is Leo, Libra

Australia to win a seat on the UN
Security Council ahead of tomorrow
night’s vote.
After firming from $2.20 into $2.00
yesterday, Australia winning the

following continued punter

Not getting the seat has eased from
$1.73 out to $1.83.
“Aussie punters expect the

commented on GLENCADAM GOLD REMAINS CAULFIELD CUP FAVOURITE | | Glencadam Gold remains favourite
for Saturday’s Caulfield Cup with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
despite drifting from $4.00 out to
$4.60 after drawing barrier 21 this
morning.
The big mover in betting following
the draw has been Mark Kavanagh’s
December Draw, firming into $6.00
from $8.50 and displacing 2011
Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden from
the second line of betting.
Dunaden has eased from $6.00 out to
$8.50 after drawing barrier 22.
“December Draw has been the big
mover in the market, $8.50 into
$6.00 and at this rate might push
Glencadam Gold for outright
favourtism,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Other notable drifters in betting
include Americain ($17 out to $21),
Jakkalberry ($19 out to $26),

commented on SYDNEY DERBY TO SET SEASON RATINGS RECORD | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has opened a market on what TV
ratings this Saturday’s first ever
Sydney derby will attract,
installing an audience of between
150,001 and 175,000 as the $2.10
favourite.
Close behind in the market at $2.80
is between 175,001 to 200,000.
“156,000 watched Sydney FC take on
Newcastle last week but we’re
tipping the first Sydney derby will
eclipse that and be the highest
rating A-League game so far this
season,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“Over 200,000 is on the third line
of betting at $4.50 and given a
real chance. If the game gets over
200,600 it would beat last year’s
grand final.”
Punters are giving the Wanderers
some chance of victory too, with
Western Sydney firming from $3.50
into $3.30 and Sydney FC easing

commented on CROWS TO GET OFF TO A FLYER | | Adelaide looks set to continue
their 2012 form into the 2013
season, opening as the $1.50
favourites with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to beat Essendon
in round 1 next year.
The Bombers are outsiders at $2.55
despite securing the services of
free agent Brendon Goddard, while
the West Coast Eagles at the $1.80
favourites to win the round 1 derby
over Fremantle ($2.00).
Carlton have also been tipped at
$1.75 to continue their tradition
of beating Richmond ($2.05) in
their first game of the year, with
Hawthorn starting as short priced
favourites of $1.44 to beat Geelong
($2.75) in round 1.
“The Bombers had a massive win in
the off season getting Goddard, but
the Crows are hard to beat at home
and will be determined to make up
for last season’s Preliminary Final
loss,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
“The Eagles v Dockers match is
almost a toss of the coin job,
while Mick Malthouse looks likely
to start his career at the Blues in
fine form.”
In premiership betting, Hawthorn
still remains favourite to win the
2013 flag at $4.00. Remarkably,
Melbourne’s odds have been halved
since the market was opened on
grand final day, however they are
still big outsiders in from $501 to
$251.
“They still look like long shots
but they have been so active during
the free agency and trade period,
including landing Chris Dawes.
Punters are giving them some chance
to bounce back.”

commented on FRANKEL TO BOW OUT A WINNER | | Superstar galloper Frankel races
for the last time on Saturday and
will retire unbeaten according to
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Many believe the aptly named
Champion Stakes at Ascot will be
the four-year-old’s toughest test,
as he strives to extend his
unbeaten record to 14. However, he
is currently the $1.16 favourite to
head to the breeding barn rated as
the greatest horse ever.
“Most Australians will no doubt
argue that Black Caviar is better,
but there is no argument that
Frankel is the best horse in the
world racing at the moment,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“There is a belief that Frankel may
have to race on a wet track and
speculation he may not handle those
conditions. As far as we’re
concerned that is bollocks and we
have framed the market
accordingly.”
Sportsbet.com.au has also framed a
market on the Group 1 race with
Frankel out of the field. French
champion Cirrus Des Aigles, who won
this race last year, is favourite
at $1.80 with Nathanial next in
betting on $3.00.

commented on SOUTH AUSTRALIAN FILLIES HOLD KEY TO GUINEAS | | Support continues to roll in for
Molto Bene for tomorrow’s Thousand
Guineas at Caulfield.
Aptly named Molto Bene, which means
very good in Italian, has been well
supported and firmed from $4.80
into $4.20 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Another Morphettville trained
filly, Maybe Discreet ($8.50) is
also well entrenched in the market,
on the third line of betting.
“The South Australian fillies are
both class acts, but the main one
punters want is Molto Bene. She is
easily the best backed filly and is
our biggest hold on the race,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“We’ve also had some decent wagers
on Maybe Discreet and Commanding
Jewel ($9.00) has also been solid.
But as far as weight of money goes
it appears that punters have
singled out the border hoppers as
the main hopes in the race.”
The Group 1 for three-year-old
fillies does appear an open race,
especially with some of the fancied
runners drawing wide.
Despite jumping from barrier 15 in
the 18-horse field Love For Ransom
has remained steady in the market
at $8.00.
Lady of Harrods, a winner of her
last two starts at Caulfield, has
been the best backed of the
outsiders, firming from $15 into
$13.

commented on BOOKIE KEEPS STATUS QUO DESPITE GRELLA'S ARRIVAL | | The Melbourne Heart remain at $11,
only ahead of the Western Sydney
Wanderers ($41), to win the 2012/13
A-League title with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au keeping
their price steady despite the
signing of veteran Socceroo Vince
Grella.
The Heart drifted from $10 out to
$11 after drawing with an
undermanned Wellington at the
weekend, and also remain on the
second line of betting at $7.00 to
finish last, with the Wanderers the
$1.67 favourites for the wooden
spoon.
“He’s a great signing for the
A-League but he hasn’t played for a
while so we don’t see his arrival
having a massive impact on their
fortunes just yet,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Grella has been installed as a $21
chance to win the Johnny Warren
medal this season, giving the likes
of joint favourites Thomas Broich
and Alessandro Del Piero ($5.50) a
several game head start.

tone and are backing Australia to

Australia winning a seat was opened

the back of renewed punter support,

Not winning a seat was the $2.80

$1.73.
“All of the early money was for

commented on PIERRO DRIFTS AS RUMOURS CONTINUE | | Pierro has almost doubled in priced
to win the Cox Plate with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
following its surprise defeat over
the weekend, now out to $3.70
following speculation all may not
be well with the horse.
The market was temporarily closed
yesterday with Pierro priced at
$2.90. When it was reopened he had
drifted to $2.50 before settling at
$3.70 on the back of jockey Craig
Williams jumping onto Green Moon
and other speculation the favourite
may not run.
As a result Green Moon has firmed
from $6.00 to $4.60, with Ocean
Park also in from $6.00 to $5.00.
“Where there is smoke, there is
fire so it will be interesting to
see what happens. He was $1.85
before the Caulfield Guineas and
with the loss, the jockey jumping
off and other rumours, needless to
say there hasn’t been a lot of
interest from punters over the
weekend and the colt may continue
to drift beyond $3.70,” said

commented on SYDNEY DERBY NOVELTY MARKETS & ROUND 3 | | Despite sitting above Sydney FC on
the ladder, the Western Sydney
Wanderers have been installed as
the $3.50 outsiders by online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au for the
first ever Sydney derby this
Saturday, with the Sky Blues opened
at $2.00.
Adding extra spice to the match is
the fact four former Sydney FC
players now play for the Wanderers
and sportsbet.com.au has opened a
market on whether Mark Bridge,
Michael Beauchamp, Shannon Cole or
Nikolai Topor-Stanley will score
against their old club, with no
goal at $1.40 and $2.75 on offer
for any of them to score.
He wowed us last round with a
wonder goal and Alessandro Del
Piero is priced at $2.50 to score
against the Wanderers and $1.50 not
to, while fellow marquee man Shinji
Ono is priced at $5.00 to score in
the first derby.
“The Wanderers are ahead of Sydney
FC on the ladder but it is early
days and the fact the Sky Blues are
priced at $1.18 and Western Sydney
at $4.50 to be the top Sydney team
at seasons end shows punters think
Sydney FC will come good,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes
Striker Dino Kresinger ($4.50 out
to $7.00) remains the favourite to
score the Wanderers first ever
goal, ahead of Bridge ($5.00 out to
$7.50) with Ono easing from $7.00
out to $12.
In other Round 3 matches, the
Victory ($2.25), Newcastle ($2.40),
Brisbane ($2.40) and Perth ($1.73)
have all been opened as
favourites.

commented on ALL TOO EASY FOR TOP TOTE PLUS PUNTERS | | Melbourne specialist All Too Hard
has firmed dramatically in Cox
Plate betting with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
All Too Hard was a $34 chance until
he beat Cox Plate favourite Pierro
in the Caulfield Guineas. His fast
finishing effort and unbeaten run
in Melbourne has seen his price
tumble to $7.50.
Top Tote Plus punters reaped the
rewards when All Too Hard saluted
at Caulfield. They received the
best odds of $12 as the Starting
Price, well ahead of the totes,
S-Tab $9.80, NSW $7.70,Tatts
$7.60.
“Team Hawkes are yet to confirm a
Cox Plate start for All Too Hard,
but we expect the horse to be well
supported if and when they do,’’
said sportbet.com.au’s Shaun
Anderson said.
“There were excuses for Pierro, who
had to do it tough, out wide,
early. However, there was a lot to
like about the way All Too Hard hit
the line and the 2040m of the Cox
Plate should suit him.
“Punters who took advantage of our
Top Tote Plus ensured they got the
best possible price.’’
Pierro is out from $1.85 to $2.80
and Ocean Park also firmed slightly
from $8.00 to $6.00 after his easy
win in the Caulfield Stakes. More
Joyous, beaten favourite in the
Toorak Handicap, has eased from
$9.00 to $11 for the Moonee Valley
Group 1.
There were no big movers in
Caulfield Cup betting, with
uncertainty about who will make the
field. Gai Waterhouse stayer
Glencadam Gold is $3.70 favourite
with December Draw solid on the
second line of betting at $6.50.

commented on IMPOST NOT WEIGHING ON MORE JOYOUS PUNTERS | | It seems nothing can deter punters
from sticking with the Gai
Waterhouse juggernaut as More
Joyous dominates Toorak Handicap
betting with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
The champion will be attempting to
become the first mare in 106 years
to carry 60 kilograms or more and
win a Group 1.
Despite the mammoth task, since
betting opened More Joyous has been
extremely popular with punters. The
eight-time Group 1 winner has
received 85 percent of wagers to
win the Caulfield race.
More Joyous is currently the $2.25
favourite ahead of Queenslander
Solzhenitsyn ($4.60) and King
Mufhasa ($8.00).
“It’s well documented the task More
Joyous faces, but it hasn’t stopped
support for the mare,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“She won this race two years ago
carrying 58 kilograms and now she
has to break a century old record
to do it again. She’s a very
popular mare, an out and out
champion. When you couple that with
the Waterhouse factor it is not
surprising punters are betting
confidently.”
Another mare, Yosei, has firmed
from $17 into $13 in the Toorak and
Tokugawa has been steady at $15.
The Waterhouse runner Pierro also
dominates Caulfield Guineas
betting. The unbeaten colt has
firmed to $1.22 and holds 90
percent of wagers.
Sportsbet.com.au is also betting on
Pierro’s winning margin. The most
popular choice is for the colt to
win by a dead-heat to 1.9 lengths,
which is $3.30.
Punters who used sportsbet.com.au’s
Top Tote Plus came away big winners
last weekend, averaging an 18%
higher return at Flemington and
Randwick compared to all three
TABs.
Top Tote Plus ensures punters get

commented on PUNTERS FULL OF HEART IN THE A-LEAGUE | | The Melbourne Heart have been the
backed side in round two A-League
betting, firming from $2.00 into
$1.61 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
With a stack of Phoenix players on
national team duties this weekend,
punters have jumped on John
Aloisi’s side to make it
consecutive wins to start the
season.
“Wellington have drifted from $3.40
out to $5.50 since the market was
opened on Monday morning. With the
Phoenix missing so many first team
players and the fact they’re
playing away from home saw savvy
punters move quickly to get on the
Heart,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
In the remaining matches, Sydney FC
($2.00 into $1.95), the Brisbane
Roar ($1.80 into $1.75) and Perth
Glory ($3.40 into $3.30) have all
firmed to win their respective
matches on the back of solid punter
support.
Despite their solid showing in
round one, the Wanderers have
tightened from $2.25 into $1.83 to
finish last, with Perth the big
movers, easing from $15 out to
$26.
The Victory’s Marcos Flores is now

commented on BY HOW FAR AGAIN FOR PIERRO? | | It is not whether Pierro can win
Saturday’s Caulfield Guineas, it is
by how big a margin according to
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Pierro, the $1.25 favourite for the
Guineas, looks set to make it nine
wins from nine starts so
sportsbet.com.au is offering odds
to pick the colt’s winning margin
in the Group 1.
Pierro to win by three lengths or
more is favourite at $2.30, 2.0 to
2.9 lengths is $2.60 and a
dead-heat to 1.9 lengths is the
$3.30 outsider.
“Pierro should have no trouble
extending his unbeaten run to nine
straight so we’re giving punters a
chance to have a bet on the colt
winning by a certain margin at odds
bigger than the $1.25 on offer for
a straight out win,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“He is meeting stronger opposition
than his last start, when he won
the Stutt Stakes by five lengths,
but by all reports he has improved
again.”
Epaulette is the $8.00 second
favourite for the Guineas, with
barrier bandit All Too Hard next in
betting at $13.
Among many others, sportsbet.com.au
is offering numerous head to head
markets, including Epaulette
($1.36) against Awesome Bro
($2.60).
Punters who used sportsbet.com.au’s
Top Tote Plus came away big winners
last weekend, averaging an 18%
higher return at Flemington and
Randwick compared to all three
TABs.
Top Tote Plus ensures punters get
the best possible price on every
horse race, every day.

commented on GILLARD TO REMAIN LABOR LEADER | | Julia Gillard has firmed from $1.53
into $1.40 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to be the leader
of the Labor party at the time of
the next Federal election but
ominously, the Coalition has been
backed from $1.33 into $1.28 to win
that vote.
The Labor party has eased from
$3.00 out to $3.25 to win the next
election.
“The punters think Julia Gillard’s
performance yesterday has shored up
her position within the Labor party
but don’t think it will have much
effect on the electorate as they’ve
continued to back the Coalition to
win the next Federal election,”
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
Tony Abbott has also firmed in
betting to be Liberal leader at the
time of the next election,
shortening from $1.25 into $1.20
with Malcolm Turnbull easing from
$2.80 out to $3.00.
An election in the next twelve
months still remains unlikely, with
the vote happening in July 2013 or
later the firm favourite, despite
easing from $1.33 to $1.40.
“An election in 2012 has firmed
from $5.00 into $4.50 and an
election in the first six months of
2013 has shortened from $4.00 into
$3.50, but they both remain
distinct outside options in that
market,” Hawes said.
$1.65 is on offer for Gillard and
Abbott to both be leaders of their
respective parties at the time of
the next election, with Kevin Rudd
and Abbott ($4.00) or Gillard and
Turnbull ($4.00) being leaders next
in the market.

commented on GLENCADAM GOLD THE ONE IN AUSSIE CUP | | With international raiders Dunaden,
Red Cadeaux and Americain being set
for another tilt at Melbourne Cup
glory this year, online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au has opened an
“Australian only” market on the
race that stops the nation.
Punters can back who they think
will be the best placed
Australian-trained horses in the
race regardless of whoever is first
past the post.
And unsurprisingly it’s Gai
Waterhouse’s Glencadam Gold who
heads the betting at $6.00.
Green Moon is next at $6.60,
followed by Seville ($11),
Ethiopia, Fiorente, Tac De Boistron
(all $14), Maluckyday, Manighar and
Mourayan (all $18).
“Glencadam Gold is the $9.00
favourite to win the Melbourne Cup
when all of the international
horses are included in the market
so is the logical tip to be the
best of the Aussies,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“And with Jimmy Cassidy now on
board you’d expect Glencadam Gold
to tighten up further.”
Others in the market include
December Draw ($21), Niwot ($26),
Southern Speed ($34), Permit ($67),
Kelinni ($101) and Bianmick
($251).

commented on BOOKIE PAYS OUT EARLY FOR MICHAEL | | Michael might as well get comfy in
the Big Brother house, with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
declaring him the winner and paying
out early on him to win the
competition despite nine housemates
still remaining on the show!
After he received 46% of the votes
to save him out of the four
housemates up for nomination on
Sunday, punter support has been
strong during the week, with
Michael’s price firming from $3.50
to $1.80.
Michael has had significantly more
bets placed on him than any other
contestant and has been the
favourite since the market opened.
“When you look at how much punter
support there has been for him
combined with how many votes he had
to save, we think he would have to
stuff up in a major way to not be
the winner,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
“There is a still a long way to go,
but he looks the one to beat so
those who have already bet on him
might as well enjoy their winnings
early.”
The market remains open with
punters still able to bet on
Michael.
Sportsbet.com.au have a history of
early payouts on sporting events,
however this is the first time a
payout has been done on an
entertainment market.
In other Big Brother markets, Sam
is the favourite for the second
week in a row to be evicted at
$2.12, while regular nominee Angie
is also at good odds to go home,
priced at $2.25. Estelle once again
looks safe and is the outsider at
$3.75.

commented on SLIPPER WON'T BE BACK ACCORDING TO PUNTERS | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au think Peter
Slipper will not be back as
speaker, backing him not to return
from $1.61 into $1.17.
Slipper returning as speaker has
drifted in betting from $3.00 out
to $4.50.
Slipper is priced at $1.10 to still
be an MP at the time of the next
Federal Election but is at the
Black Caviar-like odds of $1.01 to
not be re-elected.
“In the last 24 hours, punters have
made their move and are backing him
not to return as speaker,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“What makes for more ominous
reading though is the fact he is
priced at $1.01 to not be
re-elected. In betting terms, $1.01
represents being as close to a
certainty as possible.”

commented on OCEAN PARK TO SWAMP RIVALS AGAIN | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has installed Kiwi galloper Ocean
Park as the $2.50 favourite for the
Caulfield Stakes on Saturday.
Ocean Park, who was impressive
winning the Underwood Stakes at his
last start, will use the Group 1 as
his lead in to the Cox Plate.
Manighar, from the powerful Peter
Moody yard, is second favourite at
$3.00, with Sincero next at $5.00
and the only other runner under
double figures.
Sincero and Manighar were strongly
fancied in the Underwood, but
finished unplaced behind Ocean
Park.
“Ocean Park was super impressive in
the Underwood and deserves to be
favourite. He’s meeting similar
opposition here and by all reports
has improved since his last run,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“In saying that, you have to
forgive horses for one bad run, as
is the case with Manighar and
Sincero. A much improved run from
either or both would not
surprise.”
Excluded, Mawingo and Alcopop have
all been opened at $11, with Midas
Touch and Sanagas the $41
outsiders.
Meanwhile, Pierro continues to firm
in Caulfield Guineas betting, into
$1.25 from $1.30, with Epaulette
($8.00) and All Too Hard ($15)
rounding out the top three in
betting.

commented on SIXERS, SCORCHERS A CHANCE IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has installed the Sydney Sixers and
Perth Scorchers at $8.00 and $9.00
respectively to take out the
upcoming Champions League Twenty20
tournament in South Africa.
The top four spots in the market
are held by Indian sides, with the
Chennai Super Kings the $5.50
favourites followed by the Delhi
Daredevils ($6.00), Mumbai Indians
($6.50) and Kolkata Knight Riders
($6.50).
“The two Aussie sides have
attracted a fair amount of
patriotic money with the Sixers the
best backed side so far with the
Scorchers the next best supported
team,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes
said.
“The market suggests the Indian
sides are set to dominate the
tournament, and there has been
money for the Super Kings at $5.50,
but at this stage the punters think
the Aussie sides are up for it.”
Auckland are the $51 outsiders for
the $2.5 million winner’s cheque.
Shaun Marsh ($3.60) and Shane
Watson ($3.20) have been opened
favourites to be the Scorchers and

commented on ADP TO OUTSCORE EMILE | | The goal scoring feats of big name
signings Emile Heskey and
Alessandro Del Piero will go a long
way in deciding the fate of their
respective teams in 2012/13 and
according to markets with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au the
Italian superstar is tipped to find
the back of the net more times.
Del Piero has been installed as the
$1.57 favourite to score more
regular season goals than Heskey,
who is priced as the $2.25
outsider.
“Although Del Peiro doesn’t play as
an out and out striker, we saw just
how good he is last weekend and on
that form alone we expect him to
score more goals than Heskey,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened
markets on how many goals the duo
will score with the line set at 9.5
goals for Del Piero and 7.5 goals
for Heskey.
Del Peiro remains on the third line
of betting to win the Johnny Warren
Medal despite easing from $6.50 out
to $7.50, while Heskey remained
steady at $12.
Sydney FC have firmed from $2.00
into $1.95 ahead of their clash
with the Jets this weekend with
money heavily in their favour. The
Jets have drifted from $3.50 out to
$3.60.

The Liberals Shayne Mallard is next

“Alex Greenwich has been endorsed

commented on MORE WINS FOR THE WANDERERS AT PARRA STADIUM | | Parramatta Stadium didn’t see its
fair share of wins this NRL season
and it looks set for similar agony
this A-League campaign with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au opening
a market on how many home wins the
Western Sydney Wanderers will net
at the ground.
The Eels managed just four wins at
home in 2012 and the Wanderers look
set to fall short of that figure
with three wins or less at
Parramatta Stadium installed as the
$1.91 favourite.
“It’s been a tough old year for
Parramatta Stadium and despite
Western Sydney’s solid start, the
market is telling us that wins
could be few and far between for
them at home in their debut
season,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
The Wanderers winning four or more
games is next in the market at
$2.88, with exactly four wins
priced at $4.33.
In Round 2 betting, the Wanderers
are $5.50 outsiders for their away
clash with Adelaide ($1.61), with
Sydney FC ($2.00), Brisbane
($1.80), Melbourne Heart ($2.00)
and the Central Coast Mariners
($2.00) all installed favourites
for their respective matches.
The big movers in championship
betting after round one were Perth

for the Melbourne majors with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Waterhouse had a dominant display
at Randwick last Saturday, where
she won the Group 1
Epsom-Metropolitan double with Fat
Al and Glencadam Gold
respectively.
Waterhouse will next Saturday
saddle short-priced Caulfield
Guineas favourite Pierro, who has
come in from $1.40 to $1.30.
Glencadam Gold has firmed from $21
into $5.50 favourite for Saturday

“Gai’s team is really flying at the
moment and she should get off to a
great start to the spring carnival
majors with Pierro in the Guineas,”
said sportsbet.com.au’ Shaun
Anderson said.
“There really is a lack of quality
opposition for the colt. If he wins
impressively we expect his price
for the Cox Plate will shorten even
more.’’
Seville has been the other big
mover in the Caulfield Cup in from
$41 to $11, while Southern Speed

commented on 2012/13 WNBL SEASON BETTING PREVIEW | | The Adelaide Lightning have been
installed as $4.00 favourites by
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
for the 2012/13 WNBL Championship.
The Bulleen Boomers ($4.50),
defending champions Dandenong
($5.50), the Canberra Capitals
($7.00) and Townsville Fire ($9.00)
make up the top five in betting,
while the Logan Thunder and West
Coast Waves are the $21 outsiders
in the market.
“Little separates Adelaide, Bulleen
and Dandenong as it stands right
now, and you can throw in Canberra
too given they’ll have Lauren
Jackson during the season, so we
look set for a tight season and the
market reflects that,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
Lauren Jackson looks certain to add
to her four MVP titles, installed
as the firm favourite at $1.80 for
the 2012/13 season. Suzy Batkovic
($5.00) and Shanavia Dowdell
($7.00) loom as her biggest threat
to the award.

commented on WALLER & WATERHOUSE IN SUPER SATURDAY BATTLE | | Powerhouse trainers Gai Waterhouse
and Chris Waller will dominate the
Randwick meeting tomorrow according
to punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Waterhouse and Waller will saddle
three starters each in the Epsom
Handicap, with their stable’s
runners well in commission.
The Waller trained Shoot Out has
been popular with punters and is at
$5.50, but Waterhouse’s Fat Al
remains Epsom favourite at $4.40.
“Waller and Waterhouse dominate
Sydney racing. Combine their
runners and they hold a powerful
hand in the Epsom,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“There has been three times the
money outlaid on Shoot Out, than
any other runner. While he has been
the one punters want, Fat Al has
remained solid since betting
opened.’’
Shoot Out’s stablemate Rangirangdoo
is steady at $8.00, attracting a
similar amount of wagers to Fat
Al.
Trainer Peter Snowden would love to
spoil the party and betting
indicates Amidexter could do that.
His Epsom price trimmed from $26 to
$13 after he beat Fat Al in the
Sebring Sprint with further support
seeing him firm to $6.50.
Punters who instead think Waller
and Waterhouse might have on off
day can take the odds of $16 that
either trainer does not train one
of the four Group 1 races being
contested.
Waterhouse alone is $9.00 not to
train a Group 1 winner and $2.25 to
notch at least one on her home
track.

commented on WANDERERS TO FIND THE BACK OF THE NET OR NOT? | | The Western Sydney Wanderers make
their A-League debut against the
Mariners tomorrow night and online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
opened a market on which player
will score their historic first
goal – unfortunately though all
signs suggest they might have to
wait at least another week.
The Wanderers not scoring a goal
has been installed as the $2.40
favourite in the market.
Striker Dino Kresinger is on the
second line of betting at $4.50,
followed by Mark Bridge ($5.00),
Youssouf Hersi and Labinot Haliti
(both $6.00) and star Shinji Ono
($7.00).
“It’s a tough initiation for the
Wanderers having to take on the
Mariners, who are renowned for
their excellent defence so that
first goal might just have to wait
a week,” sportsbet.com.au's Ben
Hawes said.
“Dead ball specialist Shannon Cole
has been priced at $17 and looks
the value pick, while captain
Michael Beauchamp is one of six
players priced as a $23 outsider.”
In match betting, the Mariners are
the $1.83 favourite and have
attracted 77 percent of money
wagered on the market, with the
Wanderers at $4.20.

commented on TOP TOTE PLUS – GIVING PUNTERS THE BEST ODDS | | Just in time for the Spring
Carnival, punters no longer need to
worry about trying to find the best
odds, with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au making it easy to
get the best possible price thanks
to Top Tote Plus.
With Tope Tote Plus, punters will
get the best return of all three
Totes or the Starting Price on win
bets - every race, every day,
metropolitan and country.
For example, if the winner of race
three in Goulburn is paying $2.90
with S-TAB, $2.60 with NSW TAB,
$3.10 with TATTS and the Starting
Price is $3.40, punters who bet
with sportsbet.com.au and select
Top Tote Plus will automatically
receive odds of $3.40!
Based on this year’s results alone,
punters would have been at least 12
percent better off by using Top

focus into finding winners and take
the guesswork out of finding the

commented on 2012/13 NBL SEASON BETTING PREVIEW | | With tip-off to the 2012/13 NBL

Adelaide 36ers are the best backed
team to take out the 2012/13 title,
firming from $10 into $7.00 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
The Perth Wildcats have been
installed as the $3.50 favourites,
with defending champs New Zealand
($4.25) and the Cairns Taipans
($5.00) next in the market. The
Sydney Kings are the $19 outsiders
in the market.
“Punters have placed double the
money on the 36ers to win the title
compared to the next best backed
side in the market,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
“We opened them at $10 a month ago
and tipped them to improve on last
season but the punters think
they’ll do more than improve.
They’re heavily backed to win the
championship.”
Reigning MVP Kevin Lisch and
Breakers guard Cedric Jackson have
been installed joint $6.00
favourites to be the 2012/13 NBL
MVP, with Jamar Wilson ($8.00),
Gary Ervin ($9.00) and Cameron

five in betting.
In a replay of last year’s Grand

commented on 2012/13 A-LEAGUE SEASON BETTING PREVIEW | | Before a ball has been kicked in
anger, Sydney FC are the best
backed team with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to take out the
2012/13 A-League title.
Champions Brisbane remain
favourites at $4.33, with Sydney FC
($5.50), Melbourne Victory ($5.50),
Central Coast Mariners ($8.00),
Perth Glory ($8.50) and Adelaide
United rounding out the top six.
The Wanderers remain the $34
outsiders.
In Johnny Warren Medal winner
betting, Thomas Broich and Marcos
Flores have been installed as the
$5.50 favourites, with Italian
superstar Alessandro Del Piero next
at $6.50 while the rest of the ’big
three’ are both in contention with
Shinji Ono and Emile Heskey priced
at $11 and $12 respectively.
“Sydney FC are the best backed side
to win the league and that has been
a direct result of signing
Alessandro Del Piero, while
interestingly the Newcastle Jets
are the next best supported team at
$15,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes.
“There’s also been strong support
for Perth, who’ve firmed from $10
into $8.50 as a result, while we’ve
seen more money for the Wanderers
to win the title than for the
Mariners and Wellington.”
The Wanderers ($2.25) are the
favourites to run last and are the
$3.00 outsiders to make the finals,
while the Melbourne Heart are also
tipped to struggle, only behind
Western Sydney to finish last
($4.33) and make the top six
($1.91).
Besart Berisha heads the betting at
$7.00 to be the competition’s
leading goalscorer this season,
with Shane Smeltz and Del Piero
next at $8.00 while Heskey is on
the fourth line of betting at $12.
Sydney FC ($2.10) are favoured to
finish higher on the ladder than
any other New South Wales side this
season, while the Roar ($1.80) are
expected to win the battle of the
rest.

commented on BOSSY FOLLOWERS LIFT SOUTHERN SPEED FAVOURITE | | New rider Glen Boss can help cement
Caulfield Cup favouritism for
Southern Speed ahead of Saturday's
Turnbull Stakes, with the mare
opening at $7.50 in the Turnbull
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the Group
1.
Boss will get his first feel of
Southern Speed in the star-studded
Group 1, which is a traditional
springboard to the Cups.
While strong support has come for
Southern Speed in the Caulfield
Cup, coming in from $17 to $11 to
be outright favourite, it looks to
have a challenge on its hands at
the Turnbull, with Green Moon
starting at $5.00.
“If Bossy can combine with the mare
and win the Turnbull there is
little doubt Southern Speed's price
will shorten even more for the
Caulfield Cup,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
“She turned in an eye-catcher when
fourth in the Underwood Stakes last
start. When it was announced the
in-form Boss had taken the Cup

commented on NAB TIPPED TO MOVE FIRST ON RATE CUT | | With the RBA cutting the official
interest rate by 25 base points
today, the NAB loom as the most
likely to act first and pass the
rate on in full, priced at $2.50 to
do so with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
The ANZ are next in the market at
$2.80, followed by Westpac ($3.50)
and the Commonwealth Bank ($5.00).
Despite this, it appears likely
that none of the big four banks
will pass on the full cut ($1.70),
with one bank to do so $2.00, two
$9.00 and three $15. All four banks
to pass on the full cut is seen as
a long shot at $34.
“We have seen in past months that
the big four banks are reluctant to
pass on the full cuts. If they are
to do it we are tipping the NAB
will act first, but overall it is a
short price favourite that none of
the big four will follow the RBA’s
lead,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
In more good news for home owners,
it appears another interest rate
cut could be on the way next month
as well, with a decrease between
0.01 and 0.25% priced at $1.60. The
rate to stay the same is next in

commented on MONEY COMES FOR LARGE DECREASE IN INTEREST RATE | | While a decrease in the RBA’s
interest rate between 0.01 and
0.25% has drifted from $1.50 to
$1.60, it is still the favourite
result with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au when tomorrow’s
decision is announced.
The official interest rate is still
seen as a good chance to remain on
hold at $2.00, while a big decrease
between 0.26 and 0.5% now seems a
real possibility, coming in from
$19 to $10 following strong support
from punters in the last 24 hours.
“The smart money has been on a
decrease. But interestingly the
punters think we could be set for a
big cut, with a decrease between
0.26 and 0.5% being the most
popular bet so far,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Any increase seems unlikely, priced
at $81.

Australia have emerged as the team
to beat, firming from $7.00 to

Sri Lanka are next in the market

“There wasn’t a lot of interest in

There has actually been more money

but the Aussies continue to be well

commented on WATSON TIPPED TO MAKE IT BACK TO BACK BROWNLOWS | | While the footy season is over,
attention has already turned to
2013, with 2012 Brownlow medalist
Jobe Watson being priced as the
$8.00 favourite with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to go
back to back and win the medal
again next year.
Watson is joined on the first line
of betting with Gary Ablett and
Trent Cotchin who have also been
priced at $8.00, followed by Dane
Swan, Scott Pendlebury and Patrick
Dangerfield all at $11.
Buddy Franklin appears to be the
most likely forward to win at $34.
“Both Watson and Ablett polled
votes in losing teams this season,
while Cotchin looks set for a break
out year, so we are expecting most
of the early money to come for
these three guys,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

commented on DOGS TO GO ONE BETTER IN 2013 | | Despite losing the Grand Final
tonight, the Canterbury Bulldogs
are tipped to make amends next
season after being installed as
$6.00 favourites by online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au for the
2013 NRL Premiership.
2012 Premiers Melbourne are on the
second line of betting at $8.00,
with the Manly Sea Eagles and South
Sydney Rabbitohs next in the market
at $9.00.
The Cowboys ($11), Knights ($12),
Sharks ($13) and Tigers ($15) round
out the top eight in the market.
“They fell one game short in Des
Hasler’s first season in charge and
we expect the Bulldogs to be even
better next year,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“The Storm, with the big three,
will again be thereabouts next
season and are priced at $8.00,
while the Cowboys look good value
at $11.”
Many teams, including the Broncos
($17), Warriors ($21) and Dragons
($26) have all been priced at
bigger odds to win the 2013
premiership than they were to win
it this season.
The Parramatta Eels are the $34
outsiders in the market.

commented on PUNTERS STICKING WITH THE STORM | | The Melbourne Storm continue to be
the best backed team across all
betting markets with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au ahead of
tomorrow’s NRL Grand Final.
The Storm have attracted 60 percent
of money wagered in head to head
betting, 96 percent of money at the
line (-1.5) and 61 percent of the
money across all margin betting
options.
Melbourne remain $1.80 favourites
in head to head betting, with the
Bulldogs priced at $2.05.
“Money was coming in three to one
in favour of the Storm earlier in
the week, and while that has
slowed, the majority of money is
still on the Storm,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“The Storm winning 13+ remains the
best backed margin betting option
and has firmed from $5.00 into
$4.50.”
Ben Barba and Josh Morris remain
the $9.00 first try scorer
favourites and are the best backed
players overall, with Billy Slater
well supported at $10.
In Clive Churchill medal betting,
punters are expecting big things
from Storm skipper Cameron Smith,
who’s been backed from $9.00 into
$7.00.
“The best backed Bulldogs player
for the Clive Churchill is Ben
Barba at $8.00, however Melbourne’s
big three have all attracted more
support from punters.”

commented on DODGY MELBOURNE WEATHER SEES SWANS FIRM | | Melbourne’s weather forecast has
seen punter interest with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au swing in
favour of Sydney, with significant
support coming for them since the
rain has fallen.
As a result the Swans have firmed
from $2.75 to $2.60, while the
Hawks have drifted from $1.47 to
$1.52.
“The Hawks are still the best
backed team and even if the heavens
opened up they will be starting as
favourites. But as the rain
continues punters get more and more
confident with the Swans,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
The weather is also influencing
Norm Smith betting, with key
forward Buddy Franklin drifting
from $8.00 to $9.00. Inside
midfielder Jude Bolton has
continued to firm in from $34 to
$17 within 24 hours.
“There was some early support for
Buddy but it has dried up since it
became obvious the weather would be
ordinary. They only want to be on
the wet weather specialists with
Bolton the pick of the bunch.”

commented on REGULAR RIGHTIES FAVS TO WIN NORM SMITH | | Hawthorn may be brimming with left
footers but a ’Mollydooker’ won’t
win the Norm Smith medal according
to a market set by online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au, with the ‘Regular
Righties’ priced at $1.70 to win
the award.
Any left footer is priced at $2.15,
with Lance Franklin, Cyril Rioli,
Luke Hodge, Kieran Jack Ryan
O’Keefe amongst the best chances.
“Not only are there plenty of left
footers in both sides but they are
amongst some of the absolute guns
of both teams. The market is tight,
but we think a regular rightie
might get the nod based on sheer
weight of numbers,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
With both teams having several
players who have previously played
with other clubs, sportsbet.com.au
has also opened a market on the
recycled vs the rest.
The rest will start as short priced
favourites at $1.17, with the
recycled including the likes of
Josh Kennedy, Shane Mumford and
Shaun Burgoyne priced as outsiders
at $5.00.
In regular Norm Smith betting, the
weather forecast has seen punters
continue to back Sam Mitchell, who
has been the best backed player and
has firmed from $7.00 to $6.50.
Jude Bolton has been the big
bolter, in from $34 to $21.

commented on GAI DAY FOR WATERHOUSE TOMORROW | | Champion trainer Gai Waterhouse
could train the card at Rosehill on
Saturday according to online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Waterhouse, whose runners dominate
betting on the eight race program,
is quoted at $301 to achieve the
feat.
The stable currently has seven
pre-post favourites, including
multiple Group 1 winning mare More
Joyous, who’s at $1.04 in the
Golden Pendant.
Her other highly fancied runners
are Fat Al ($1.35), Strawberry Boy
($1.80) and Indianapolis ($2.25).
“She has a total of nine runners in
the eight races, and her longest
priced runner at the moment is
Under The Sun at $4.00. Superstar
More Joyous is going round at
$1.04, and rising star Fat Al is in
the Shannon Stakes as $1.35
favourite,’’ sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“The price for her to achieve this
unprecedented feat is $301. It is a
big ask, but if anyone can do the
history making achievement Gai
can.’’
Waterhouse finishing with three or
four winners on the day looks to be
the most likely outcome, priced at
$1.40, with five winners ($3.50)
and one or two winners ($6.50) next
in the market.
Of Waterhouse’s runners, Urban
Groove has been the best supported,
opened as the $4.00 favourite for
the Reginald Allen Quality and is
now into $2.80.

commented on BUPA BATTLE & SKIPPER SQUABBLES | | They look scarily similar and are
just as important to the Bulldogs
as each other – Canterbury props
James Graham and Aiden Tolman are
crucial to the Bulldogs premiership
hopes on Sunday and online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has
opened markets on which one will
have the biggest impact on Grand
Final day.
Interestingly though, the pair
cannot be split, both priced at
$1.90 to make the most tackles and
$1.90 to gain the most metres.
“It’s hard enough trying to
determine who is who when they’re
out there playing. We’re told one
is called BUPA as he is the unwell
looking version of the other but
I’ll leave that up to the players
to announce which one that is,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“But in all seriousness, they are
both in scintillating form so it’ll
be interesting to see who tallies
bigger numbers across those
statistical areas. We can’t split
them.”
The battle between the two captains
will go a long way in determining
who will be victorious on Sunday
and according to sportsbet.com.au
markets, Cameron Smith might come
out on top.
Smith is priced at $1.70 to tally
more tackles than Ennis ($2.10) and
at $1.30 to game more metres than
Ennis ($3.50).
In match betting, the Storm remain
the $1.80 favourites with money
three to one in their favour – the
Bulldogs the $2.05 outsiders.

commented on PUNTERS SWOOP ON BOLTON WITH DODGY WEATHER | | With ordinary weather predicted for
Saturday’s Grand Final, punters
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au have jumped on wet
weather specialist Jude Bolton to
take out the Norm Smith Medal.
Bolton has been heavily backed in
the past four hours, firming from
$34 into $21 with 40 percent of
bets placed in that time for the
Sydney Swans gun.
“Some savvy punters have seen that
the weather predictions aren’t good
and know Bolton thrives in wet and
soggy conditions, so have snapped
him up at big odds,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Sam Mitchell remains the best
backed player and has firmed from
$7.00 into $6.50 today, with Swan
Josh Kennedy next in the market at

In match betting, the Hawks have
eased from $1.47 out to $1.50

favourite with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to be the next
coach of the Wests Tigers, firming
from $3.00 into $2.50.
After ballooning from $2.50 out to
$13 yesterday, Kevin Walters has
jetted right back into contention
and is on the second line of
betting at $3.00.
Former Bulldogs coach Steve Folkes
now also looms as a contender for
the job, installed as a $4.00 shot,
while Steve Georgalis has tightened
into $9 from $17 following some
punter support.
“As soon as it was announced Mat
Parish was heading to the Eels,
punters started snapping up the $13
on offer for Kevin Walters and he’s
quickly become the best backed
candidate in the market,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“There’s also been solid support
for Nathan Brown and behind Walters
he’s the best backed in betting.
Steve Georgalis has also made a big
move, he’s firmed from mid pack
onto the fifth line of betting at
$9.”

commented on HOW FAR PIERRO? | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
is offering value for punters to
pick the winning margin for Pierro
in the Bill Stutt Stakes at Moonee
Valley tomorrow night.
At $1.15 favourite in early betting
Pierro should make light of his
first start at Moonee valley and
sportsbet.com.au is offering
punters value should they think the
undefeated star can salute by a
handy margin.
Sportsbet.com.au has installed
Pierro at $1.75 to win by three
lengths or more, while the Cox
Plate favourite is $3.50 to finish
in a dead-heat to under 1.9 lengths
and $3.70 to win by 2-2.9 lengths.
“His career biggest winning margin
was two and a quarter lengths when
he won the Champagne Stakes, but
this is a far inferior field,’’
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“It is his first start at the
Valley and the Melbourne way of
going, but we see that as a plus.
With his explosive turn of foot,
around the tight Valley turns, he
could quiet easily put a big margin
on this field.’’
Punters also think Jimando will
have the edge over Philippi in
betting without Pierro, with the
Tony McEvoy trainer runner priced
at $2.40 and Philippi at $2.60.

commented on $5,000 BET ON BUDDY FOR THE NORM SMITH | | While the weather looks ominous for
the tall forwards on Grand Final
day, one punter is confident Lance
Franklin will still dominate,
placing $5,000 on Buddy at $8.00
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to win the Norm
Smith Medal.
If Buddy does win the award the
punter will clear $40,000, with Sam
Mitchell the best backed player
overall at $7.00.
Sydney’s Josh Kennedy has also
received support at $7.50, while
fellow hard nut Brad Sewell is next
in the market at $11 along with
match winner Cyril Rioli ($11).
“The weather looks shocking which
would suit the likes of Mitchell,
Kennedy and Sewell. But we all know
Buddy is a match winner and we saw
him step up when it counted last
week against Adelaide. He is a big
game player and just as good below
his knees as he is over head, so he
looms as a real chance,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Buddy is also the $7.00 favourite
to kick the first goal of the Grand
Final, while the Hawks remain firm
favourites at $1.47 over Sydney
($2.75).

commented on PIERRO TO CONFIRM COX PLATE STANDING IN STUTT | | Unbeaten colt Pierro should
continue on his winning way in the
Stutt Stakes on Friday night
according to online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Pierro is $1.16 favourite for his
first attempt around the tight
Moonee Valley circuit, the venue
for next month’s Cox Plate.
The triple crown winner drew
ideally in barrier three in the
eight horse field. Nearest to
Pierro in the market is Jimando and
Philippi, both priced at $11.
“Some horses just can’t handle the
Valley, but Pierro is bomb proof,’’
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“He toyed with the opposition
first-up and by all reports has
thrived since. He’s drawn ideally
in barrier three so we expect the
Valley to pose no problems and he
should chalk up win number
seven.’’
Pierro continues to firm for Cox
Plate honours, tightening from
$4.80 into $4.40 in the last 24

commented on HAWKS FIRM FOR FLAG, BUDDY TIPPED TO KICK 1st GOAL | | Hawthorn continue to firm with
punters despite speculation skipper
Luke Hodge could be less than 100%,
coming in from $1.50 to $1.47 with
online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
following significant support
throughout the early stages of the
week.
As a result Sydney have drifted,
moving from $2.70 out to $2.80
before settling again at $2.75.
“It has been the same all year and
it hasn’t changed in grand final
week, punters can’t get enough of
the Hawks even though Luke Hodge
has question marks over his
fitness,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
“The weather could see some
interest return towards the Swans,
but even if it buckets down, the
Hawks will be starting
favourites.”
Sam Mitchell has been the best

Opened at $1.91, the Storm first
shortened into $1.83 before getting
into their current quote of $1.80
having attracted three times the

of Canterbury.
The Bulldogs have now eased out to

the best supported margin betting

commented on PUNTERS LIKE THE WINDIES, AUSSIES FIRM | | Australia have firmed from $7.00
into $6.50 to win the Twenty20
World Cup with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au but it is the West
Indies who are the best backed side
to take out the tournament.
The Windies have attracted 40
percent of money so far wagered on
the tournament and remain at their
opening price of $7.50 to do so.
South Africa head the betting at
$5.00, followed by India ($5.50),
Sri Lanka ($6.00), Australia
($6.50) and Pakistan ($6.50). The
Aussies are the third best backed
side overall, attracting 11 percent
of the money.
“With a player like Chris Gayle in
their team, the West Indies can
blast any side in the world off the
park and it seems punters think
that this could be their
tournament,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“There has been minimal support for
South Africa and India to win the

commented on NRL JAGS BIGGER CROWD BUT AFL PULLS IN MORE VIEWER | | The NRL may have attracted a bigger
crowd for its preliminary final at
ANZ Stadium last weekend but the
AFL looks set to respond by having
a larger TV audience for its Grand
Final this weekend.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
has installed the AFL decider at
$1.40 to have more viewers across
Australia than the NRL, with rugby
league’s showpiece event priced as
the $2.75 outsider.
In a state versus state battle, the
AFL Grand Final ($1.62) is favoured
to have more Victorian viewers than
the NRL Grand Final ($2.20) will
have viewers from New South Wales.
“The NRL got one over the AFL in
Sydney last weekend but the market
suggests the AFL grand final will
comfortably out rate the NRL
decider,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben
Hawes said.
“More Victorians watched the AFL
grand final last year than New
South Welshman watched the NRL
decider so the challenge has been
laid down to New South Wales
residents in 2012.”
Sportsbet.com.au has also opened
markets on how many viewers the AFL
and NRL deciders will have, with
2.5 million or under the $1.57
favourite for the AFL and over 2
million the $1.67 favourite for the
NRL.

Sunday’s NRL Grand Final with money
coming in three to one in their
favour.
As a result, Canterbury have eased
from $1.91 out to $2.00 in head to

“Des Hasler will be beaming after

now officially the underdog for
Sunday’s Grand Final,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“There’s been just over double the

Interestingly, the Storm 13+ is now
the best backed margin option,

market mover after his game third
at Caulfield last Saturday.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
tightened his Caulfield Cup price
from $26 to $15, after his effort
behind Ocean Park in the Underwood
Stakes.
“There was a lot to like about
December Draw’s run. He toughed it
out up the straight and is no doubt
going to take improvement from the
run,’’ sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes

“Michael Rodd said the horse felt

that’s the case he looks pretty
good value for punters at the
moment.’’
Green Moon heads Caulfield Cup
betting at $13, with December Draw
and Southern Speed sharing the
second line at $15.
Ocean Park was also a strong market
mover following Saturday’s win and
has been promoted to $6.50, second
favourite for the Cox Plate.
The Kiwi horse splits the Gai
Waterhouse pair of Pierro ($4.80)

double the money to win the NRL
Grand Final to that of the
Canterbury Bulldogs since online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au opened
the market on the decider on
Saturday night.
Sportsbet.com.au still cannot split
the sides, with both remaining at
$1.91 to win the premiership.
“It’s really a toss of the coin
job. The early money has been for
the Storm but there is a long way
to go until kick-off and we’ve seen
a lot of late money for the Dogs in
their last two matches,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
In margin betting, both sides are
priced at $2.95 to win 1-12 and
$5.00 to win 13+ with money
identical across all four markets

the Grand Final’s first try, while
teammate Ben Barba heads the

has opened the both Canterbury
Bulldogs and Melbourne Storm at
$1.90 to win next Sunday’s NRL
Grand Final.
“The Bulldogs and Storm recorded
impressive preliminary final wins,
boast big packs, world class halves
combinations and x-factor fullbacks
– we can’t split them,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“It’ll be interesting to see what
the punters do as you can mount a
strong case for both sides.”
If the final margin of the Grand
Final is less than six points,
sportsbet.com.au will refund
punters their first bet on the

has installed the Hawthorn Hawks as
the $1.50 favourite to win the 2012
AFL Grand Final.
Their opponents the Sydney Swans
have been priced as the $2.60
outsider.
“The Crows pushed Hawthorn all the
way but the Hawks were good enough
to get the job done. They’ve been
the team to beat all year and are
rightly opened as firm favourites
for the Grand Final,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“The Swans are a well drilled unit
but they face an uphill battle to
out to do the Hawks at the ‘G next
weekend.”
If any player kicks five goals in
the Grand Final, sportsbet.com.au

commented on MANIGHAR AND MOODY SET TO WIN FIRST VIC GROUP 1 | | Top trainer Peter Moody’s stayer
Manighar continues to firm as
favourite for Saturday's Underwood
Stakes at Caulfield.
Since Wednesday's barrier draw
money has arrived at a steady rate
for Manighar, who has firmed from
$3.40 into $2.50 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Manighar will start from barrier 10
in the 14-horse field. His
arch-rival Southern Speed, who beat
Moody's grey in the Makybe Diva
Stakes last start, has been
friendless with punters easing to
$6.50 after opening $5.50.
Sincero, impressive winner of the
Memsie Stakes, is on the next line
at $5.00. He is out from his
opening quote, but had support at
$5.50 and is best backed to beat
the favourite.
“It’s a quality race, there's class
from top to bottom, but the punters
only have eyes for Manighar,” said
sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
“There was a nose between him and
Southern Speed last start and with
luck in running Manighar probably
would have won.”
Kiwi visitor Ocean Park, a last
start Group 1 winner across the
Tasman, has eased to $6.50 and
December Draw is also out a point
to $10.

to $1.20 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au to coach Port
Adelaide following Rodney Eade
pulling out of the interview
process.
It appears to be Ratten’s job to
lose, with Ken Hinkley next in the
market at $8.00 followed by Scott
Burns at $11.
With Eade now out of contention,
virtually all the money has come
for Ratten, who was $41 when the
market first opened while he was
still coaching Carlton.
Eade was $5.00 before announcing he
would no longer be in the running.
“Ratten was already the short
priced favourite for the job but
with Eade saying he won’t coach
there, he has shortened even
further. The longer the interview
process goes on the more of a
certainty he appears to be,” said

commented on $20,000 BET ON THE CROWS | | Despite their short odds, Hawthorn
have been extremely well backed
during the week, including one
punter who has bet $100,000 on them
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au at odds of $1.14.
And while the majority of punters
think the Hawks are good things,
another punter has gone against the
trend, betting $20,000 on the Crows
at odds of $6.00 to win over
$120,000.
“It has been all one way traffic on
the Hawks despite their short odds,
with the Crows drifting from $5.25
to $6.00. Only one of these big
betters can win and while most of
the money has been on the Hawks,
obviously the Crows punter is
confident an upset could be on the
cards,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
Sydney have firmed in the second

punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au have backed
Saturday night’s blockbuster rugby
league clash between Canterbury and
South Sydney at ANZ Stadium into

As a result, the AFL match has

“94 percent of money wagered on the

commented on BOWMAN JUMPS ONTO GEORGE MAIN STAKES FAVOURITE | | Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au
believes saddle-hopping jockey Hugh
Bowman has made the right move for
Saturday’s George Main Stakes.
Bowman has opted to ride Shoot Out
and sportsbet.com.au has opened the
gelding at $3.80, equal favourite
with Secret Admirer, for the Group
1 mile at Randwick.
Bowman had a choice and decided not
to stay with his last start
Chelmsford Stakes winning mount,
nine-year-old Danleigh, who is on
the third line of betting at
$4.00.
“You have to respect Hugh Bowman’s
opinion. He’s ridden Shoot Out in
a couple of barrier trials and he
said he was impressed with the way
the six-year-old is progressing,’’
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
“The horse must be going very well
for him to jump off Danleigh, who
was impressive last start and has a
fitness edge. He could possibly rue
that decision if the market is
anything to go by.”
“Three-year-old All Too Hard, who
will carry just 50.5 kilograms, has
been kept safe at $6.50 against the
older horses so it’ll be
interesting to see if the punters
think he can recapture his best.”

commented on TURNBULL A CHANCE TO CHALLENGE FOR LEADERSHIP | | While it seemed almost a foregone
conclusion that Tony Abbott would
be the leader of the Liberal party
at the next election, the recent
polls have shown that Malcolm
Turnbull could be a real contender,
with Turnbull coming in from $3.50
to $2.80 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
As a result Tony Abbott remains
favourite but has drifted from
$1.14 to $1.25, with Joe Hockey
third in the market at $9.00.
Despite the change in the market,
it still appears unlikely Turnbull
will challenge for the leadership,
with ‘No’ priced at $1.40 and ‘Yes’
at $2.75.
If he is to challenge it appears it
won’t be for a while, with $3.00
priced for the challenge to come
between January-February next
year.
“Six months ago it seemed
unthinkable that anyone but Abbott
would lead the Liberals into the
election, but the tide seems to be
turning and Turnbull has emerged as
a genuine replacement should
Abbott’s popularity continue to
nose dive,” said sportsbet.com.au’s
Shaun Anderson.
Unsurprisingly Wyatt Roy is the
outsider in the market at $5001.

a Hawthorn v Sydney grand final,
with the Swans being installed as
$1.65 favourites with online

preliminary final.
Collingwood have been priced at
$2.25, while Hawthorn are still
firm $1.16 favourites over Adelaide

“The week’s break is obviously a
massive advantage for the Swans and
even though Collingwood were

FC continue to attract punter
support to win the 2012/13 A-League
title and have firmed from $6.00
into $5.00 with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au.
Following news of his signing last
week, Sydney FC tightened from
$7.50 into $6.00 but money has
continued to come for the Sky
Blues, who now find themselves on
the second line of betting, only
behind the Brisbane Roar, who’ve
eased from $3.50 out to $4.00.
“We knew he’d have a big impact on
Sydney FC’s title chances and the
punters agree. They’ve firmed from
$7.50 into $5.00 since he’s been
linked with the club,”
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
“They are the best backed team to
win the title with
sportsbet.com.au. They’ve been the
only team in the top six to firm in
betting with every other side
drifting in the market.
“The Sky Blues have bumped the
Victory from the second line of
betting too. That’s sure to upset a
few Melburnians.”
Sportsbet.com.au have also opened a
series of Del Piero specials, with
the Italian priced at $1.57 to be
Sydney FC’s leading goal scorer
this season and $1.40 to take the
team’s first penalty of the
season.
Del Piero is priced at $2.75 to
score on his full A-League debut

commented on REKINDLED INTEREST IN OLIVER'S RIDE | | A superb track gallop by Rekindled
Interest could be the reason for
firming into outright favouritism
with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au for Saturday's
Dato Tan Chin Nam stakes at Moonee
Valley.
Rekindled Interest, who won the
race last year, now heads the
betting at $3.50 for the Group 2.
Earlier in the week the gelding was
equal $4.00 favourite with Green
Moon, who has tightened into
$3.80.
“New race jockey Damian Oliver gave
a glowing report to the media after
piloting Rekindled Interest in
Tuesday's gallop at the Valley,”
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
"Oliver's opinion carries a lot of
weight. The horse is obviously
going very well, he's a Moonee
Valley specialist and the punters
are starting to jump on board.”
Since the barrier draw Memsie
Stakes runner-up Happy Trails, who
drew gate 10 in the 12-horse field,
has been a drifter ($6.00 out to
$7.50).
Another Adelaide galloper Alcopop
has had support at longer odds
firming from $21 into $15, while a
big spring is predicted for Linton,
but he faces a difficult task from
the outside barrier, evidenced in
betting drifting from $7.00 to

commented on CHEIKA FIRMS, TAH-MAN A CHANCE? | | Michael Cheika has firmed from
$1.33 into $1.25 with online
bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to be
the next coach of the NSW
Waratahs.
Cheika’s biggest threat seems to be
Waratahs interim coach Allan
Gaffney, who has firmed sharply
from $9.00 into $3.00.
The duo however don’t need to be
worried about a new contender in
the market, with the Tah Man priced
at $501 to get the gig. Every other
candidate in the market has drifted
significantly in betting.
“Punters seem to think it is a two
horse race between Michael Cheika
and Allan Gaffney. Apart from a $5
wager on Phil Kearns at $101, all
of the interest has been for them,”
sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Punters also think the ‘Tahs might
make the finals in 2013, with the
side making the top four backed
from $2.75 into $2.50.

commented on PUNTERS CONTINUE TO SUPPORT KABAYAN | | The powerful Gai Waterhouse-Nash
Rawiller combination is believed to
be behind the groundswell of
support for gelding Kabayan to take
out Saturday's Golden Rose.
After Tuesday's barrier draw
Kabayan has continued to firm in
betting with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au, priced at $4.60
earlier this week and a steady
stream of bets has seen him firm
into $4.20.
Favourite Nechita has lost no
admirers and remains entrenched at
the head of betting at $2.20.
Kabayan has attracted the bulk of
wagers (27 percent) for the
Rosehill Group 1 with Nechita (17
percent) next. However, the John
Thompson trained Nechita has held
her position at the top of the
chart because of the greater volume
of money on the filly.
"Nechita and Kabayan are obviously
the class runners and it has shown
in the betting trends. The punters
believe it's a race in two and it
is no surprise Kabayan has
attracted the most bets. Gai and
Nash have a huge following and they
have the runs on the board in these
big races,'' sportsbet.com.au's Ben
Hawes said.
With punters focussing on the top
two, Your Song and Albrecht have
eased from $8.00 out to $9.00,
while Shamexpress, backed from $15
into $11 prior to the barrier draw,
has maintained his quote.

commented on MORE JOYOUS TO START SPRING ON WINNING NOTE | | Punters with online bookmaker
sportsbet.com.au expect More Joyous
to account for Saturday's Sheraco
Stakes opposition and hold her
position high in Cox Plate
markets.
More Joyous is resuming from a
spell at Rosehill and is the short
priced favourite at $1.20 to start
her campaign on a winning note.
Nearest to the mare in the betting
is NSW Horse of the Year Streama,
who, like the rest of the field,
has been friendless in Sheraco
betting at $11.
"There was a bit of controversy
when Streama beat More Joyous for
(NSW) Horse of the Year honours,
but we think Gai's mare will have
her revenge in the Sheraco and so
do the punters,''
sportsbet.com.au's Ben Hawes said.
“As soon as we opened the market
after the barrier draw the punters
came for her, including one bet of
$25,000 at $1.22. We expect her to
start at Black Caviar like odds.
"She's a champion mare and her
barrier trial win at Randwick last
month was impressive. Gai and Nash
(Rawiller) were signing her praise
afterwards, so she's obviously come
back as good as ever.''
More Joyous, an eight time Group 1
winner, is being aimed at the Cox
Plate, where stable mate Pierro is
the reigning pre-post favourite at
$4.50.
More Joyous and Manighar are the
second line of betting at $ |
