Capacity line-up for Kingsford Smith Cup

Wednesday 22 May 2019, 11:43am

A capacity field is set to line up in the Group One Kingsford-Smith Cup at Eagle Farm.

The full field of 18, with no emergencies, will see last start Doomben 10,000 winner The Bostonian take his place for New Zealand trainer Tony Pike.

The Bostonian has drawn barrier 11 in Saturday's 1300m sprint with Dollar For Dollar, third in the Doomben 10,000, drawing outside him in 12.

Godolphin stablemates Trekking and Home Of The Brave had mixed luck drawing barriers one and 17 respectively while The Bostonian's stablemate Endless Drama drew widest in barrier 18.

In-form two-year-old Dubious, trained by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, will jump from gate 14 and will carry 48kg under the weight-for-age conditions with Nikita Beriman aboard.
