Debut winner Hi Barbie is the Ladbrokes.com.au favourite for the BJ McLachlan Stakes (1200m) this Saturday at Eagle Farm.

The well bred filly, trained by Tony Gollan, was impressive on debut in the Phelan Ready and appears well suited here with the Magic Millions Classic in mind. She is favourite at $2.80, and well tried.

Icarian Dream is on the second line of betting at $3.20, with The Playwright at $4.40. Lockyer has admirers at odds, into $11 from $14 with online wagering companies.
