This is from the Racing Post:

Tony Elves

"SIXTIES ICON galloped at Lingfield on Friday in preparation for his tilt at the Breeders' Cup Marathon on Saturday and will leave Newmarket on Sunday for Santa Anita.

"The Galileo horse has won four of his five starts this season and gained his latest win in fine style, when beating Sugar Ray by two and a quarter lengths in the Group 3 Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot last month.

"Sixties Icon worked over 1m in company with Whistledownwind and quickened up nicely in the closing stages.
Trainer Jeremy Noseda said: "I was very happy with Sixties Icon. He took the left-handed turns really well and seems in good form."

Sixties Icon won the classic St. Leger at 14f a couple of years ago and is a genuine 12f+ animal. If he takes to the Pro-ride, he will be ultra-dangerous.
