Without a great deal of early pace evident Awesome Icon may lead the way over Rockathon.
NAGADEC (5) won her maiden two back at the Sapphire Coast then got a mile out of her ground before closing in good style here at this trip last start, beaten under three lengths. Freshened up since that run seven weeks ago. Draws a better gate this time and looks well in on 57kgs against this opposition. MACHINATION (9) is a seven-start maiden who finished a distant third when tackling the mile for the first time a fortnight ago at the Sapphire Coast. Very fit gelding who will be better for that run. Looks a chance with the light weight out of the inside alley. FLASHY ICON (1) has found the line well in two runs over 1400m following a seven-week let-up. Is a winner here and on a seven-day back-up makes plenty of appeal. GREATESTOFEASE (4) has been underwhelming this time in work but drops in class today and gets a tongue tie on which may assist. LUNA LASS (8) is one to keep tabs on with the blinkers applied for the first time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Nagadec looks better than these.
