Drunken Sailor's victory at Flemington on Saturday has seen him shorten considerably in the Adelaide Cup market.

Starting favourite and taking out the 2600 metre handicap at Flemington, Drunken Sailor firmed from $4 into $3.20 with TAB Sportsbet to solidify favouritism in the Adelaide Cup at Morphettville on March 12.

Western Jewel, on the second line of betting at $6 befoire the Flemington, drifted significantly after her failure behind Drunken Sailor and is now at $12 for the Adelaide Cup.
