Early support for out of form galloper on Saturday

Clinton Payne - Thursday March 14
There has been an interesting push for a horse racing at Warwick Farm on Saturday that has struggled to produce its best in two runs this preparation.

The Chris Waller-trained Nocturnelle was beaten 3-1/2 lengths when fourth first-up in the Listed Triscay Stakes (1200m) on a heavy surface at Warwick Farm on February 23 then last Saturday she finished last in a seven-horse field in the Wiggle Stakes.

Nocturnelle was beaten 11 lengths by Steps in Time over the Warwick Farm 1400-metre course prompting jockey Glyn Schofield to report the mare is "not going well".

Waller is backing up the stakes-winning daughter of Elusive Quality in Saturday's Listed Aspirations Quality over 1600 metres with Hugh Bowman replacing Schofield.

During the first 24 hours of betting at Sportsbet, Nocturnelle has been well-fancied, firming from $11 into $9, $8 and now $6.

Meanwhile, in the Randwick Guineas, favourite Rebel Dane eased to $3 at Sportsbet before the support arrived, forcing his quote back into $2.80.

Others that have their admirers are It's A Dundeel ($8.50 - $8) and Sacred Falls ($12 - $10) while Proisir is $3 out to $3.20.

Sportsbet.com.au will give you give you a free bet of up to $250 on your first bet.
