A full field of 16 plus four emergencies has been declared for the $3.5 million Golden Slipper at Rosehill.

Saturday's rich race meeting featuring five Group One races, will go ahead without spectators.

Blue Diamond Stakes winner and runner-up, Tagaloa and Hanseatic head the Slipper field with Rathlin first emergency.

Trainer Chris Waller, who is yet to have a Slipper winner, has two runners, Global Quest and Hungry Heart.

Global Quest has had a mild health scare with Waller telling stewards the colt had a slightly elevated temperature on Monday but has worked well and continued to eat well.

The barrier draw will be done on Tuesday morning.
