Two of the Emmet Mullins runners at Down Royal today have been the subject of major market moves.

In particular Shake Him Up has been slashed in price ahead of his engagement in the EM Gray & Company Ltd Opportunity Maiden Hurdle.

The Jet Away gelding has made little impression in three completed starts and was tailed off when last seen at Fairyhouse in early April.

Having been chalked up at 100/1 last night he is now disputing favourtism in the two-and-a-half mile contest as a general 6/4 shot.

In the following Craft Event Co Opportunity Handicap Hurdle top-weight Blackstair Rocco has also attracted plenty of support.

The Shirocco gelding, a never dangerous 14th on his handicap debut at Punchestown in late April, opened up 8/1 last night and is now best priced at even-money having been odds-on.
