G1 Golden Slipper winner and 'TDN Rising Star' Capitalist (Aus) (Written Tycoon {Aus}), who was set to make his seasonal debut in Saturday's G2 Missile S. at Randwick, has been scratched from that 1200-metre contest due to the heavy track conditions. Co-trainer Paul Snowden had previously predicted that the 3-year-old would run despite the wet track due to the generous weight-break he would receive on the weight-for-age scale, but the chestnut could now be re-routed to next weekend's 1100-metre G3 San Domenico S., where he would have to shoulder 60kgs.
Also scratched from the Missile is Godolphin's Generalife (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}), leaving a field of five for the feature, with Rebel Dane (Aus) (California Dane {Aus}) now the heavy favourite.
