Irish Raider backed for Coral Cup success

The Gordon Elliott-trained Automated is 10-1 (from 14-1) second favourite with the sponsor for the Coral Cup, after further support for the 6-y-o today.  Modus heads the betting at 8-1, with Kalondra and Air Horse One both 12-1.

“Automated has been off the course since his Navan victory before Christmas, but having halved in price from 20-1 in the last few days, a big run for Gordon Elliott is clearly expected in the Coral Cup,” said Coral’s David Stevens.
