Chris Waller will have numbers on his side with six runners in the Group One Doomben Cup.
Waller has paid up for Comin’ Through, Satono Rasen, Egg Tart, One Foot In Heaven, Life Less Ordinary and Tom Melbourne in the $650,00 race.
But the Sydney trainer won’t have the favourite with Anthony Freedman’s former Japanese stayer Ambitious rated the horse to beat after drawing gate seven.
Melbourne mare Oregon’s Day has drawn an inside barrier as she strives for her first Group One win after a last-start victory in the Hollindale Cup at Group Two level.
