Material Man Favourite For Perth Cup

There has seen good support for the favourite Material Man to win the Perth Cup at Ascot on New Year's Day.

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.
