El Castello heads the Ladbrokes.com.au market for the feature race at Flemington this Saturday, the Victoria Derby (2500m).

The Anthony Cummings trained galloper was impressive in winning the Spring Champion last Saturday and looks primed for the 2500m. He is favourite at $3.60.

Red Aces is on the second line of betting at $7, alongside King Of Thunder. Keeneland is at $9 with gambling companies in Australia.
