        Verdict

        This won't take much winning so ICON DANCE should finally lose her maiden tag. Well clear of the others with an official rating, Ben De Haan's filly should take care of Green Mitas and Miguel Grau as she steps up in trip. The latter gets first-time headgear as he returns from nearly a year off the track so the newcomer Memphis Magic may prove a bigger threat given he's a half-brother to six winners.
