King's Ranson the horse to beat here looked very impressive winning last start in a group 2 race at Tentham  Thumb Up

I agree that the number one horse will be tough to beat but everyone I have talked to over here tells me that The Heckler is the horse to beat. Trained by Murray and Bjorn Baker, to be ridden by M. Rodd, drawn terrific in the two gate.

As an aside, I have been impressed by the quality of the yearlings this year. There is a noticeable improvement in type and confirmation and that message has been received by many overseas buyers, as there was a much bigger number inspecting yesterday. There cannot have been many Sydney trainers at Randwick yesterday as most seemed to be here and the Asian contingent was bigger than I have seen for some time.

Thanks OL, So the race must be restricted listed as the Magic Millions classic is, rather than fully listed.

I hope you managed to get some of the $11 on offer. Top ride by Rodd.
