$2million Inglis Millennium Field and Barrier Draw

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday February 6

Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott have dominated two-year-old racing in Sydney this season, but their prospects in Saturday's $2million Inglis Millennium (1200m) at Royal Randwick were dealt a blow when Hellbent colt Fully Lit drew gate 17, while the Ciaron Maher trained Odinson drew ideally in gate 4.

Odinson won the $500,000 Inglis Nursery last December and the two horses he defeated, Beer Baron and Nymphadora, are back for a rematch in the Millennium.
