The field has been declared and the barriers drawn for Australia's richest weight-for-age race, the $4 million Group I Longines Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) at Randwick on Saturday.
The Queen Elizabeth Stakes is now the jewel in Sydney racing's crown, surpassing the Cox Plate as the wealthiest race run under weight-for-age conditions.
Four of Chris Waller's five runners drew the outside quartet of gates while favourite Carlton House will jump from barrier five.
A total of 12 acceptances were received for the world's richest 2000 metre race run on turf.
The final field and barrier draw for the 2014 Longines Queen Elizabeth Stakes is.
