GROUP 1 Doomben 10,000 winner REDZEL resumed this preparation with a quiet barrier trial at Royal Randwick on Tuesday morning with Blake Shinn reporting 'he felt terrific' after guiding him through the 1000m hit out.
The son of Snitzel
settled in a familiar position at the head of proceedings before being quietly
ridden to the line to finish 0.9l behind the winner Dixie Blossoms.
"It'll be exciting to see him in the Moir where he'll be a real live chance."
Co-trainer Peter Snowden was likewise pleased with his first public display, citing one more trial before a return to race action, with his initial target being the Group 1 Moir Stakes over 1000m at Moonee Valley on September 29.
"It was a good trial," he said. "He was a bit fresh in himself but you'd expect that. He's gained a lot of condition and has come back in stronger.
"He'll have one more trial which will bring him up to the mark and he'll be ready to go."
