“TAB punters have started rallying for I Wish I Win again after Joliestar proved quite popular since opening at $6,” TAB senior trader Tim Ryan said.
“I Wish I Win was a little bit soft and went $5 out to $6 in betting, but since then punters have gone back to him and he’s a lot more popular than Joliestar, although they’re both still $6 chances.
“Growing Empire is $6 out to $7.50, and Traffic Warden is the one TAB punters dove into immediately following the barrier draw, and he went $9 into $7 and is now out at $7.50.
“Sunshine In Paris has seen good support and is $11 into $9.50.
“Bella Nipotina has been pretty friendless after being at $6 before the barrier draw and is $8 out to $9 since then.
“The other one that’s trimmed up on Thursday has been Storm Boy, who is now $12 after being as much as $15 after the barrier draw.
“Stefi Magnetia is $15 into $14 and I Am Me in Barrier One has been very popular with punters and is $17 into $15.
“Private Eye has had support and is $26 into $23 and so has Lady of Camelot with $51 into $41, while there has been no money for previous winner Giga Kick ($11 out to $13).”
