Jamie Kah has opened the $1.80 favourite to go back-to-back in the Melbourne Jockeys premiership next season, on the back of her record-breaking 12 months in town.
The South Australian native will claim the 2020-21 Victorian metro title in a romp, in what was just her second full season riding in Melbourne.
On Saturday, she surpassed Brett Prebble’s mark of 99.5 winners in a Melbourne season, climbing to 101 after back-to-back Saturday doubles at Flemington and Caulfield in the past week.
And TAB is taking no chances that Kah won’t repeat her feat and sit top of the pops again in 2021-22, with the 25-year-old opening a $1.80 favourite to defend her crown.

My earliest race-day memory was going to the
Cox Plate in 1972 when
Gunsynd won as a four-year-old. Roy Higgins rode him, and he was a family friend of ours.
