Verdict

KILBRANNAN (8) held in high regard by the stable and ready to peak over the mile. Gave away a massive start before circling the field with a sound fourth over 7 ½f at Rosehill in this class. Berry sticks and sure get a more genuine tempo in the bigger field. Go close. ICEMAN (4) above average gelding with his hoof on the till. Two runs back have been excellent in this grade and he maps to get the gun run again. Loves the Randwick mile and gets every chance with Rawiller retaining the ride. ZENMASTER (3) took control early and never headed in the straight with a sharp win over this track and trip. Jumps 4lbs in weight today and will prove hard to run down. ETCHED IN TIME (6) comes here in peak condition and should have little trouble competing at this level. Snagged back from the awkward draw before running on late to finish fifth over this trip at Kembla Grange in BM64 grade. Key jockey change with the weight drop. Each way. KINGSTON CHARM (7) gets a better set-up for this. Respect.
