Whiskey Riot is a red-hot $1.60 favourite to win Saturday night’s TAB Australian Cup at The Meadows ahead of tomorrow’s box draw.

There appears to be plenty of value among the other finalists, however, with the next in betting being Hard Style Rico at $6, while half the field is currently at double figure odds.

The market could change dramatically following Monday’s box draw, which will take place shortly after 11.30am and broadcast live on RSN.

Whiskey Riot was a dazzling heat winner last night in 29.47sec (Best).
