Runaway wins are never going to do much good to the futures fixed odds quotes.
Crocodile Canyon is now the $8 equal second favourite for the Wellington Cup thanks to his leave-'em-to-it victory in Saturday's Marton Cup.
This was a win that suggested the run was merely beginning.
Crocodile Canyonhas been an in-and-out horse for most of his career. But if he shows up with Saturday's performance at Trentham in two weeks he's going to be difficult to contain.
The $3.50 favourite for the Wellington Cup is Dunstan Final winner Green Supreme.
His stablemate Single Handed is the $8 equal second favourite with Crocodile Canyon, followed in the early market by Roi d'Jeu and Booming on $10. Cassini and Marea Alta are at $14.
* Toowoomba trainer Tony Gollan left the Gold Coast on Saturday dreaming of spring time at Flemington after Spirit Of Boom put in a blistering performance to win the A$400,000 ($520,000) Magic Millions Cup (1400m).
Spirit Of Boom (A$7) scored a half-length win and Gollan immediately signed off on a Melbourne campaign.
