It proved to be a successful return to racing for Melbourne Cup winner Fiorente at Caulfield - and TAB punters were some of the main beneficiaries. Among the bigger bets taken on the Gai Waterhouse star in the Peter Young Stakes were $8,000 @ $2.10 and $7,000 @ $2.00.
Fiorente's victory has seen some big adjustments in Futures markets, too.

In the Queen Elizabeth, Fiorente has firmed from $5.00 into $4.60 to be equal favourite with It’s A Dundeel.
