5:55am - CHRISTMAS CLASSIC | 1200m | Listed | i

The feature on the card brings together the talented SIGNORE FOX and a couple of mares with carnival form on their way to the Magic Millions. ORIENTAL RUNNER should roll forward again with company from JUNGLIZED and maybe ALBUMIN, a FAIR tempo expected. The tempo was on the steady side last time when SIGNORE FOX produced a dazzling sprint to run over the top of ORIENTAL RUNNER late. He's an exciting horse suited here again. GLENALL was strong to the line in that race too and poses a legitimate threat in a race with more pressure. MADAM ROUGE clearly classy enough to win, it all depends on how she is ridden with her grand final a couple of weeks away. They look like the clear top three here with place chances to a few.
