"Redzel arrived in Melbourne Monday morning and looks in excellent order," said Snowden.

McEvoy will again be aboard the son of Snitzel on Friday, with Redzel having once again a month between races where he is at his imperious best.

"He will have a jump out on the Flemington straight on Friday. That gives us two weeks before he races but it will be good to refresh his memory of the straight. It's a track you can never get too used to," added Snowden.
