The horse that has been the best backed runner in the Golden Slipper since Tuesday's barrier draw has eased with wagering giant TAB.

Annabel Neasham's undefeated filly Learning To Fly has accounted for 13.9 per cent of fixed odds bets since the draw but her price has drifted from $6 out to $7.

The big firmer has been Blue Diamond Stakes winner Little Brose.

The Ben and JD Hayes-trained colt has firmed daily since the draw – $21 into $12 from Tuesday to Wednesday and is now into $11 on Thursday morning with 12.45 per cent of investments on the son of Per Incanto.

Sepoy in 2011 is the last to complete the Blue Diamond-Golden Slipper double.
