GOING: G(4)

LINCON HIRE AND SALES RATINGS BAND 0 - 55 Handicap 1600m

Track: SOFT5   Rain (Max: 35)   Rail: 6.5 metres Entire Course.. (Pent: 5.64)  

Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Roy's Road a potential leader. ICONIC PRINCE (2) got a well-deserved Mackay victory at the latest effort and will have derived a stack of confidence from that overdue win. Winning rider Cormack sticks in the irons and can go back-to-back without shocking. GRUMPYWANTSATISSUE (8) is a consistent conveyance who has hit the top-five at his past seven starts and is usually thereabouts. Best form puts him right in this. ROY'S ROAD (9) is drawn to get a gun run in transit from the inside marble and rates a must for the exotics players. CITIROC (4) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be underestimated. The very well-related I SAY BOOM (1) (half to 6xG1 winner Chautauqua) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Iconic Prince to win again.
