Field of eight for G1 WFA Futurity Stakes

Wednesday 19 February 2020, 11:30am

A small field has been declared for the Futurity Stakes but the weight-for-age Group One race is not lacking in quality.

New Zealand star Melody Belle has barrier three for her first start of 2020 as she chases her 11th Group One win while Caulfield Guineas-winning colt Super Seth is set to jump from just outside the mare in barrier four in Saturday's 1400m race at Caulfield.

Super Seth is the only three-year-old in the field while Epsom Handicap and Golden Eagle winner Kolding has barrier five for what will be his first Melbourne start.

Nine-year-old Black Heart Bart, who won the Futurity three years ago, has the outside draw while four-year-old Wild Planet has barrier one.
