Racing and Sports finds the best-backed runners in early betting on Monday’s meeting at Forbes.

Track: Soft 6

Rail: True

First race: 12.40pm

Abstract Lady (Race 2) opened at double figure odds but her price has more than halved to $4.40 given good support this morning. She was beaten a long way when resuming but that was on a heavy track and she did beat the bulk of the field and should strip fitter today on a slightly firmer track.

Leucura (Race 7) hasn’t won for a while but the punters believe today could be his day after some consistent form that has seen him place at four of his last five runs. He has shortened the best part of two points to $4.20 and should enjoy the soft conditions after finishing runner up in his first try at the mile last start.

Lake Lugarno (Race 8) has taken over as favourite at $3.50 with TopBetta after firming several points since markets opened. She showed good promise at her initial campaign with a debut second and successive wins and is expected to be ready to fire fresh after a good recent barrier trial.
