Verdict

FREDIDRIVSAMERCURY (6) has had six weeks off and has trialled twice since manners let him down last start. He was going well prior with a win and a second in his previous two outings at this circuit and distance. Only needs to get things right to be in contention. ICONIC IMAGE (5) has had eight weeks off since finishing third at his latest appearance, his fourth placing in five starts since winning at this circuit and distance. Has performed well from standing starts before. Contender. DESIRING DIAMONDS (2) is another back from a let-up but her form is consistent and she owns a handy record at this circuit and distance. NONIS GOLD CLASS (3) goes back in the handicap but must be respected after scoring at this circuit and distance last time.
