field of eastern state sprinters are set to clash in next week's Ramornie Handicap at
Grafton, as part of that city's upcoming Cup Carnival. The $126,050 Qantaslink Ramornie Handicap (1200m) to be run next Wednesday,
attracted 33 quality entries. The combined prizemoney earnings of the 33 entrants is a
staggering $4,901,168.

the field for the 1200 metre feature. Weights are expected to be released tomorrow
afternoon.
