Last start Australian Guineas winner Shamus Award continues to attract support for Saturday’s Group 1 Darley Australian Cup at Flemington, firming from $4.60 into $4 at Sportingbet.com.au following the release of the final field.
Shamus Award is a clear-cut second favourite behind Fiorente, who has drifted from $2 out to $2.15 at Sportingbet.com.au.
“The gap between them in betting was entitled to close and they’re probably finding their right prices now. The three-year-old will be doing his thing out in front and it will be up to Fiorente to run him down,” Sportingbet.com.au’s Andrew Brown said.

Third favourite Foreteller has eased slightly from $7.50 to $8.50, while Thunder Fantasy remains solid at $9.
