The field and barrier draw has been decided for the Group I Epsom Handicap on Saturday with odds-on favourite and unbeaten mare Autumn Glow drawing the extreme outside gate in a field of 14.
The draw had a minimal impact on betting markets with TAB.com.au easing her from $1.80 to $1.90.
Autumn Glow goes into the Epsom having her first attempt at the 1600m and her first attempt at Group One level but she is unbeaten in six starts to date and been the short-priced favourite for this race since markets opened.
NZ Derby winner Willydoit firmed from $11 to $9 after drawing barrier two to be on the third line of betting with Ceolwulf. Pericles is rated an $8 chance.
