Champions Mile Betting Odds
Mr Brightside is favourite to win the 2024 Champions Mile, with $3.50 his quote.
Fangirl ($4.20) finished fourth in this race last year as favourite and while she found winning touch second-up this prep when successful in the seven Stakes, the six-year-old was a touch disappointing last start when sixth-of-eleven in the King Charles III Stakes.
She did win her only other start at Flemington and the daughter of Sebring also has two fourth-up victories to her name.
Antino ($5.50) couldn't have been more impressive when recording his first Group 1 win last start, with the Tony Gollan-trained galloper taking out the Toorak Handicap by 6.5-lengths.
Stepping back up to weight-for-age level is the main query for the Queensland visitor, although he has found winning form at the right time.
