North England is the Ladbrokes.com.au favourite for the opener at Randwick this Saturday, the Kindergarten Stakes (1100m).

The GaiBott trained colt didn’t disgrace himself in the Golden Slipper and back to 1100m, he takes beating and the market agrees, sitting as the $3.50 favourite.

King Of Pop is at $4.60 on the second line of betting, ahead of Beskar at $6, a sharp debut winner during the Summer at Geelong.
