A dominant heat win on Saturday night and now the perfect inside draw has seen Washakie shorten dramatically for Saturday night’s 2010 Inter Dominion Final with leading online bookmaker Sportsbet.
The star New Zealander firmed from $6.00 in to $4.60 with sentimental favourite Blacks A Fake also firming from $4.20 to $4.00 after drawing barrier three.
“Washakie has the gate speed to hold the front if challenged by Blacks A Fake, that’s why we are still betting $4.00 for “Blackie”. I think he’ll he have to do too much work” said Sportsbet’s Matthew Campbell.
Race favourite Monkey King (pictured above) drifted slightly from $2.10 to $2.30 after drawing barrier five. “Ricky May might take a peak at leading but I think with the speed on he will take a position in behind and still be the one to beat” said Campbell.
Although Sportsbet think Blacks A Fake will do it tough I think he has what it takes and has over many occasions shown why he is a superstar in the harness racing world. At $4.00 and taking barrier 3 I think Blacks A Fake is well worth a bet.
