With the Watpac Inter Dominion nominations closing this week the biggest coup for the Championship in 2010 is that three of the biggest names in the sport – Mr Feelgood, Monkey King and Blacks A Fake – are there.
Mr Feelgood and Blacks A Fake were joint winners of the Barastoc Grand Circuit last season and finished one-two in the Inter Dominion earlier this year.
Monkey King has already won three Barastoc Grand Circuit events this season.
Victorian entries have weight of numbers, with 29 horses nominated from there, while the home State of New South Wales has 27. New Zealand has 12 horses nominated while Queensland and Western Australia have seven and six entries respectively.
There are no nominators from South Australia or Tasmania
The first rankings for the Watpac Inter Dominion will be released next Wednesday (15th) at 12noon.
The $1million Grand Final will be staged at Tabcorp Park Menangle on March 7.
