The Group One Oakleigh Plate (1100m) at Caulfield on Saturday is the second of the major autumn sprints in Melbourne and race favourite Point Barrow did not get the ideal barrier, drawing 10 in the final field of 14.
Making his debut off a recent barrier trial victory, Anthony and Sam Freedman’s 2yo colt Wolf Gap defeated the favourite at Warwick Farm on Wednesday, becoming the first Australian winner for Kingman’s European Champion Miler Palace Pier (GB).
