Verdict
MARKS ICON (4) improving stayer starting to put it all together. Appreciated the firmer going when clearing out for a dominant 1.5 len win over 2000m at Canberra on November 24. Drop in weight suits and doesn't have to improve much to win again. JUDGE JACK (5) Justify gelding from the Neasham & Archibald stable desperate for this trip. Powered late from well back at his second race start when a solid second over 1400m at Tamworth on December 2. Up in class and no surprise to see him finish over the top of these. DRUNKEN SAILOR (3) undefeated this track and stretches out to this trip for the first time. Anchored with the 59kg when ninth over 1400m at Canberra two-and-a-half weeks ago. Improvement expected. GRENOBLE (1) best form is over this track and trip and backs-up quickly after finishing seventh over 2000m at Queanbeyan on December 18. Goes into the exotics.
