Dubious and Exhilarates are fighting out favouritism for the Magic Millions Classic at the Gold Coast

Last start winners Dubious and Exhilarates continue to fight it out as to who will start favourite in the Magic Millions Classic (1200m) this Saturday at the Gold Coast.

Dubious, trained by the Maher/Eustace stable, comes to the Gold Coast off the back of a strong on speed win at Eagle Farm over 1000m and ran good time. 1200m is a little query, but draws well to park off a hot speed. He is second in the market at $4.80, behind the well backed Exhilarates, the first runner in the race for Godolphin. She bolted up last Saturday and is at $4.600 after opening at $5.50.

Several key contenders drew poorly and their price got out after the barrier draw, including the unbeaten Unite And Conquer ($6), Czarson ($6)and Hightail ($15).
