The Chance To Dance team believe their recent acquisition is in good touch for take two of the A$2 million group one Sydney Cup at Randwick today.
"He seems bright and happy enough and we haven't done much with him, he's fit enough," said Jamie Richards, who trains the son of Teofilo with Stephen Autridge.
"He had a nice gallop on Tuesday morning and Christian Reith came in and rode him and he'll be on him on Saturday."
Meanwhile, Bobby El-Issa says he's where he belongs ahead of the cancer survivor's biggest ride yet, the Sydney Cup.
He will be aboard Lee Curtis-trained Lasqueti Spirit in the re-run today following the declaration of a no-race on April 8 when Almoonqith fatally broke down and Who Shot Thebarman lost his rider.
