Schwarz is the Ladbrokes.com.au favourite for the feature race at Randwick this Saturday, the Missile Stakes (1200m).

The O’Shea/Charlton trained four year old that resumes, having not raced since a down the track effort in the Fred Best, but off the back of a sharp trial, the punters are warming to him, into $2.10 from $2.35.

Semillion sits on the second line of betting at $6 alongside Arctic Glamour. Shezanalister is at $7 and rock solid with betting apps.
