The market for the 2021 Cox Plate has been turned on its head after favourite Zaaki was scratched on the morning of the race.
Trainer Annabel Neasham confirmed the news on Saturday, withdrawing the seven-year-old gelding after it presented with an elevated temperature.
Zaaki was set to go around a $2.80 favourite prior to the scratching, with Anamoe ($2.90) now the shortest in the betting.
More to come.
