Darwin Race 4 - Victoria Village Katherine Hcp (66)
AMERICAN JAZZ (5) had to work hard to find the front here 3 weeks ago and weakened in the run home. He also lost one of his shoes that day, which would have also done him no favours. He is unbeaten in 2 starts here over the shorter trip of 1200m, and from a slightly superior gate, he can bounce straight back into the money. On top. MR MARRAKECH (6) has come of age since joining the Gary Clarke stable and will be chasing a hat-trick of wins after leading all the way to win here 17 days ago by well over 3 lengths. He takes another step up in class, but carries the same weight, and will go close to getting the job done again. HELL FIRE MISS (8) won here by a nose over 1300m last start in BM70 company and slides down in class here. She is up 2kg in weight, but that should not prevent her from figuring in the top 3 here as well. AICHI ICON (1) did not do much in a couple of starts for new trainer Neil Dyer at Alice Springs but is much better than that. Stick with him.

Resuming today after a break of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last preparation second last of 7 at Alice Springs 0 - 70 March 22 over 1600m, 19 len behind Better Not Fuss carrying 60kg at $15. When resuming last campaign ran last of 9 at Alice Springs Hcp March 16 over 1100m, 14 len behind O'Tycoon with 53kg at $51. Best form gives him a decent chance.

At the latest run sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 7 at this track Wfa on July 19 over 1200m, 11 len behind Lumber Punk with 58.5kg at $15. Before that faded in the straight 8th of 10 at this track 0 - 76 on July 5 over 1300m, 12 len behind Tannenburg carrying 57kg at $2.90. Worth forgiving and can turn things around.
