Tosen, Le Romain Out Of George Main

Winx faces just five in the George Main | Bronwen Healy

Winx (Aus) (Street Cry {Ire})'s opposition in Saturday's G1 George Main S. has been whittled down to just five with the scratching of Tosen Stardom (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) and Le Romain (Aus) (Hard Spun).

The 5-year-old Tosen Stardom with withdrawn after suffering a cut to his leg on the float ride from Victoria, according to Racing.com. While the minor injury is not expected to have an impact on the remainder of Tosen Stardom's season, trainer Darren Weir opted to not take his chances on Saturday and returned his charge to Victoria.

Le Romain instead contested Friday's G3 Australian Bloodstock Cameron H. at Newcastle, finishing second.

Winx, who seeks her 11th-straight win in the 1600-metre Randwick contest, is a heavy $1.08 favourite for the George Main.
