EMERGING star Alcopop shares favouritism with Melbourne Cup winner Shocking and Cox Plate winner So You Think for next year's Melbourne Cup.

Eskander's Betstar yesterday posted the first market on the 2010 Cup, 344 days before the running of the world's greatest 3200m handicap.

Shocking, Alcopop and So You Think are at $21, while Victoria Derby winner Monaco Consul and Shamoline Warrior, the Derby favourite before his race-morning scratching, and Metropolitan winner Speed Gifted are next at $26.

Betstar spokesman Michael Horne said he would let punters decide who should be favourite.

Horne said recently purchased Europeans Alandi, winner of the Irish St Leger, and Doctor Fremantle and Above Average, who have both joined the Lee Freedman stable, were $41.
