The barrier draw for this Saturday’s $10 million Golden Eagle (1500 metres) at Rosehill Gardens took place on Tuesday evening, with the fourth emergency Kiss Sum (Shamus Award) drawing the rail. Should he not get a berth, the Peter Moody-trained Chain Of Lightning (Fighting Sun), the choice mount of Jamie Kah, will jump from barrier one in the 20-horse field.
Market fancy Light Infantry (Fr) (Fast Company {Ire}), a Maher-Eustace import, drew midfield in barrier eight with Jamie Spencer, while I Wish I Win (NZ), a Savabeel gelding for Waikato Stud, drew 14 with Luke Nolen.
Widest of the confirmed field is the Chris Waller-trained Hinged, a 4-year-old mare by Worthy Cause, who got barrier 20 with Kerrin McEvoy, while Frankie Dettori, confirmed on Tuesday for the Waller import Welwal (GB) (Shalaa {Ire}), drew barrier nine.
