Hallowed Crown, the $5.50 favourite with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, drew barrier 23 for the Randwick Group 1.
Second emergency Kermadec holds the second line of betting at $6.50, just ahead of Real Impact ($7.50) despite the Japanese invader drawing two inside of Hallowed Crown.
Pornichet ($8.00), Royal Descent ($9.00) and Sweynesse ($13) round out the top five in betting. Prior to the draw punters had also singled Suavito ($15) and Happy Trails ($21) as the threats to the top five runners in the market.
“Hallowed Crown faces a tough task to win from out there. Super Impose was the last horse to win from gate 20, in 1990, when he won the first of his consecutive Doncasters. It will be interesting to see if punters drop off the favourite, but at this stage he’s steady,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
