Star filly short odds in the Belmont Classic

Image: RWWA

In form filly Ihts Closing Inn is favourite with Ladbrokes.com.au for the feature race at Belmont this afternoon, the Belmont Classic (2200m).

The Adam Durrant trained three year old has been outstanding in recent times and was a strong winner of the Belmont Oaks two weeks ago. Despite having the picket fence in form, she is a bit easy as favourite, sitting at $2.50 after opening $2.20.

That drift is because there has been good support for Aquanita winner Upper Limits. He opened $3.90 and has been backed with confidence, into $3. He is clear of Demolish, who is the one with upside. He’s rock solid at $4.20.
