Magic Millions 2YO Classic Field and Barrier Draw

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday January 10

High profile colts from the Peter and Paul Snowden stable all drew wide for the Magic Millions 2YO Classic (1200m) following Tuesday morning's barrier draw with multiple runners in the race for champion sires I Am Invincible, Snitzel and Zoustar.

All three Snowden runners drew wide gates, with pre draw favourite Empire Of Japan set to jump from gate 11 while Sovereign Fund (17) and Godfather (20) will launch from much wider out.

Fillies fared better in the draw with Infatuation putting herself in the picture from gate eight with Platinum Jubilee drawn next to her in seven, although Fire Lane had little luck coming up with gate 15.
