The powerful Godolphin stable figures prominently in TAB's initial Epsom and Metropolitan markets, released on Tuesday.
Godolphin and trainer John O'Shea boast the favorites in both events with the brilliant pair Hauraki and Hartnell.
In the TAB Epsom Hauraki is the $5 favorite off the back of a brilliant return to racing. An impressive winner of the Tramway first-up, the son of Reset gave champion mare Winx a decent push midway down the straight in the George Main Stakes before finishing one-and-a-half lengths back in second.
A winner of the Grp 1 Rosehill Guineas as a three-year-old, Hauraki heads the market in front of Happy Clapper ($7) with a trio of horses at $9, including Darren Weir's top-liner Black Heart Bart.
Happy Clapper, second to Winx in the Doncaster during the Autumn, has had two runs back from a spell and while unplaced in both was only a length from Sons Of John in the Bill Ritchie last Saturday.
Hartnell has been sensational since his return to racing, winning two of his three starts - the Grp 2 Hill Stakes and Chelmsford Stakes. His only defeat this time in was first-up when second to Winx in the Warwick Stakes.
"Hauraki has been great since returning from a spell and tried his guts out when second to Winx in the George Main over the weekend, “ says TAB’s Glenn Munsie.
“As for Hartnell, his two recent wins have been sensational with his Chelmsford Stakes run top notch on a very heavy surface. Godolphin is always going to be a stable that has to be respected. It always produces quality horses throughout the year and punters seem to flock to them during Carnival time.”
