Talented filly Hijack Hussy is currently available at 2015 Magic Millions Guineas odds of $3.50 and is a clear favourite to take out the $1 million event at the Gold Coast on Saturday.

Hijack Hussy produced a very professional performance to win the Listed Lexus Hybrid Plate (1400m) at Flemington on November 4, but a lack of early speed have subsequently cost her wins in the Listed Mode Plate (1200m) at Doomben on December 6 and the Group 3 Vo Rogue Plate (1300m) at the Gold Coast on December 27.
Punters are confident that Hijack Hussy can return to winning form this weekend and trainer Tony Gollan believes that jockey Tim Bell will be able to settle the Hussonet filly closer to the speed when she jumps from barrier six at the Gold Coast on Saturday.
“It is good to draw barrier six, I really couldn’t have wished for a better draw with her,” Gollan told Sky Racing HQ.
“It is good to draw a good barrier and the track doesn’t really affect me, rain affected or not, and I just hope that she can jump and be a little bit closer if she can.
“That will go a long way to helping her chances in the end.”
Testashadow is currently on the second line of 2015 Magic Millions Guineas betting markets and is available at a quote of $7 to take out the lucrative event.
The Testa Rossa gelding started his summer preparation with two fair performances at Randwick on November 22 and Rosehill Gardens on December 6 before he stamped himself as a genuine Magic Millions Guineas contender with a tough win in the Cellarbrations Handicap (1400m) at the same venue on December 20.
Gerald Ryan-trained Aerobar is also taking winning form into the Magic Millions Guineas and she is available at a quote of $8 to record back-to-back wins for the first time in her racing career.
Aerobar produced an extremely poor performance when she finished at the tail of the field in the De Bortoli Wines Handicap (1200m) at Rosehill Gardens on November 29, but she produced the best performance of her career when she defeated Echo Gal and Cyclone to take out the Wyong Magic Millions Stakes (1200m) on December 18.
The only other horse that is available at single figure 2015 Magic Millions Guineas odds is Echo Gal, who is now out to a quote of $8.50 after being available at $7.50 when the final field was released earlier in the week.
Emergency I Am Zelady ($26 into $21) has been the market mover in Magic Millions Guineas betting markets in the past 24 hours, while Cyclone ($11 out to $12) and Murt The Flirt ($15 out to $16) have been on the drift.
