Has been disappointing in both starts this prep but usually takes a couple of runs to warm into his prep.
He will find this level of races much easier than his previous couple of races and his trial win in between runs was good.
Marimenko was caught three wide without cover when resuming at Cranbourne over 1200m and battled home ok considering.
He’s placed in both starts second up from a spell and the step up in distance suits.
Drawn well and represents good each way value.
Let’srollthedice started this campaign with a fifth in the Listed McKenzie Stakes at The Valley beaten just over two lengths.
He followed that with a last place finish at Flemington where he was held up at a crucial stage but was good in the Stutt Stakes in his subsequent start.
The son of Dundeel has never started at this distance but is bred to stay and he’s the one to beat in the Geelong Classic.
Katalin is a classy sprinter who will have a fitness edge on the majority of this field.
She was narrowly beaten in three successive races before getting within 1.6 lengths of Nimalee in the Group 2 Golden Pendant last time out.
She’s missed a placed just once in five starts at 1200m and she looks well placed in this event.
