DING THE BIG CUP MOVER
Thursday, 22 October 2009: Leica Ding has been the big mover in Melbourne Cup markets after her game win in yesterday's Geelong Cup.
Before her run yesterday she hadn't passed the first balloting clause for the Melbourne Cup but her win not only achieved that but puts her on the cusp of a Cup start.
That's if Racing Victoria's Greg Carpenter was impressed enough to penalize the mare's 50kg Cup handicap.
Following the win Leica Ding shortened from $201 to $31.
Runner-up Dandaad , well down the order of entry in the Melbourne Cup, still shortened on his run from $51 to $41 while third placed Sterling Prince shortened from $201 to $101.
The imported gallopers Crime Scene and Basaltico both drifted to $81.
Meanwhile, the Paul Perry-trained Southern Skye shortened in Derby markets from $26 to $15 after his win in the Geelong Classic.
One punter with TAB Sportsbet coupled Viewed to win the Caulfield Cup with Southern Skye to take the Victoria Derby at odds of $1053.
The $200 bet is staring at a payout of over $200,000.
