A view reflected in the early futures market at Sportsbet which have the 5 year old as the $7.00 outright favourite.

Puissance De Lune sustained the bone chips injury whilst dead heating with Budriguez in the Group II Blarney Stakes at Flemington but recovery process has gone without a hitch.

2012 Melbourne Cup challengers feature heavily in the Cup odds betting early on, with Fiorente at $11.00 and Mount Athos at $13.00. It’s A Dundeel comes next at $15.00 and then it’s $21.00 the field.

Reigning Melbourne Cup champion Green Moon is a $26.00 for a repeat success, but most interesting of the others is Jakkalberry at $41.00. Placed in the race last year at huge odds and still improving he might be worth a speculative interest at big odds.
