Four starters are primed to run for Logan Racing at the upcoming Karaka Millions Twilight meet at Ellerslie.

Headlining the stable's chances is The Soultaker in the Karaka Million 2-year-old 1200m.

The Soultaker will start from barrier 14, a bit of a horror draw although the race has been won from nearly all barriers in the past.

The Iffraaj colt will be ridden by in-form jockey Opie Bosson and has had three starts for 1-2-0. His last start was a great run considering he missed a bit of work when he had a temperature for a few days.

This is the first runner the stable has ever had in this race.

Meanwhile, the listed Karaka Million favourite Manolo Blahniq has drawn perfectly for the feature event.

The last-start Gr.3 Eclipse Stakes winner will jump from gate three while another fancied runner in Caorunn will start from barrier five. The Soultaker, however, didn't fare so well and drew 14.

Also running out of the Logan Racing stable, Honour Princess will take the field in Race 1, while Race 6, the Hallmark Stud Mile Special Conditions, sees Valley Girl start from barrier seven. Cambridge also starts in the Hallmark Stud Mile and will be ridden by Matt Cameron from barrier four.
