Cox Plate favourite kicks off campaign

-

SATURDAY, 3.10PM

The Tramway Stakes at Randwick on Saturday may not be the biggest race this weekend, but everyone will be watching with great interest. Imported galloper Zaaki took all before him through the Brisbane winter with three successive wins. Off the back of those performanc­es he’s a dominant favourite for the Cox Plate, but that race is over 2040m while the Tramway is just 1400m. That hasn’t stopped punters weighing in heavily on the six-year-old. He’s a dominant favourite to kick off his spring with another win.
