IRON WILL (8) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1400m at Greyville, getting home by a nose. Hard to fault and expected to take catching again. JAZZ FESTIVAL (1) has accrued four minor placings from five runs this preparation. Produced another good effort at his most recent run when second over 1600m at Greyville. Craig Zackey gets the best out of this six-year-old gelding. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. SWORD SPEED (7) has not been sighted since he scored over 1600m at Greyville All Weather on November 25. romising type and already a fresh up winner. Has upside and likely to feature. RUN TO RIO (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 9 lengths away in eighth over 1600m at Greyville. Sean Veale gets the best out of this five-year-old gelding. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 14 at Greyville on January 18 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Magma Magic with 54kg at $11. The start before that 3rd of 10 at Greyville on December 19 over 1600m, 2 len behind Numzaan with 55.5kg at $17. Long overdue. Draws well and is a strong winning chance.

Chasing a hat-trick. Returns from a 44-day let-up. Last start won by a nose at Greyville January 2 over 1400m defeating Grand Appeal with 54kg at $5. The run before that won by 1.2 len at Greyville December 19 over 1200m defeating Music Is Life with 52kg at $11. Hard to fault and expected to take catching again.
