Final fields for Golden Horse Sprint day

Judged on the final fields for the Grade 1 Speed Day at Hollywoodbets Scottsville, racegoers will be in for an exciting day of full-speed action.

Strong fields make for ultra-competitive racing and as usual there are plenty of stars about, including East Cape star Global Drummer (pictured), Highveld champion two-year-old Karangetang, top Cape filly Captain's Ransom, recent WSB Fillies Guineas winner Under Your Spell, Nursery winner Miss Cool and more.
Paul Matchett-trained Battle Force, victorious last year in the Grade 1 Golden Horse Sprint, heads a full field of 16 as he bids to defend his crown.
It will be a tough task as last year he carried bottom weight, this year he is at the top of the handicap where there is only 4kg separating top from bottom to conform to international Grade 1 conditions.
This year's race will be a tight contest.
The Golden Horse has attracted the country's top sprinters and forms the last leg of the Grade 1 quartet, along with the Allan Robertson and Gold Medallion and the SA Fillies Sprint.
All four races have attracted top class entries in what will be a smashing day's racing.
