The odds for a number of 2010 Caulfield Cup contenders have changed dramatically throughout the day as the rain continues to fall over the Victorian track softening the ground further and ruling out a number of Caulfield Cup runners that prefer drier ground.

2010 Caulfield Cup Market Movers

• Hot favourite Shocking has firmed into $5 from $6.50 favoured because of his wider draw and Makybe Diva Stakes win on a Heavy track
• One-time favourite Metal Bender has drifted out to $8 with concerns his barrier two draw will see him stuck on the inside in muddy conditions
• Hong Kong galloper Mr Medici has been slashed from $21 into $17 for his Australian race debut after his last start victory in Sha Tin was on very slow ground, which will be the condition at Caulfield tomorrow
• Monaco Consul has been one of the biggest movers in the 2010 Caulfield Cup odds today shortening from his original quote of $31 into $17 as the Kiwi galloper is accustomed to the wet ground
• Luca Cumani’s Manighar is in from $13 to $11, the known wet-tracker advantaging from the rain and likely to handle the heaviest conditions best
• Descarado, Gai Waterhouse’s second runner along with Herculian Prince, has gained popularity in from $26 to a much shorter $16 to win as they will relish the conditions tomorrow
• Bart Cummings’ Faint Perfume has come right into contention now at $7.50 after opening at $9, she is passable on the wet but the addition of blinkers to her gear for the first time is what is getting the punters’ attention
