BATTLE OF THE ICE (6) is a promising gelding yet to miss the frame after two starts, including a win. Is at the races for the first time since he finished third over 6f at Mornington on November 2. Drawn out but he is likely to be in the finish. MR BLUNT (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Caulfield Heath, beaten 3 lengths. Will enjoy a drop in class so he can bounce back. SUSSEX DUCHESS (8) was not disgraced in city class last time when fourth at Caulfield Heath and goes well here. Will find this easier. Well placed and is one of the contenders. STREET CONQUEROR (5) continued the good recent form when he finished just 0. 8 lengths away in third last time out over 6f at Caulfield Heath. Won't find this assignment as tough. Not to be discounted.
