Capacity field for Blue Diamond

By

Samaready remains a dominant favourite for Saturday's Blue Diamond Stakes after coming up with barrier eight at Tuesday's draw.

The Mick Price-trained filly is among a full field of 16 plus four emergencies and will move in to barrier seven should the reserves not gain a start.

Unbeaten from two starts including a dominant victory in the Blue Diamond Prelude for fillies, Samaready remained at $2.10 with TAB Sportsbet after the draw for the 1200m $1 million feature at Caulfield.

The Gai Waterhouse-trained No Looking Back is still on the second line of betting but has drifted from $9 to $10 after coming up with barrier 19.

Jimando also eased a point to $11 with the Tony McEvoy-trained colt to jump from the outside barrier.

The Travelling Man, winner of the colts and geldings Prelude, firmed slightly to also be at $11 after coming up with barrier two.

Peter Snowden has two Blue Diamond runners with Rusambo ($19) drawing gate 16 while stakeswinning filly Applegate ($19) will start from barrier one.
