Material Man is the new $4.20 outright favourite, having opened as equal top pick with Trap For Fools ($4.40 out to $4.60).

Pounamu, who edged out Material Man last start, is next in line at $5.00.

Royal Star has come in a point from $8.00 to $7.00 since betting opened.

“Punters are very keen on Material Man. He gets a 2.5kg weight swing on Pounamu from their recent meeting and the extra distance here should suit,” said Sportsbets Christian Jantzen.
