Trainer Bruce Marsh’s disappointing run in last month’s Emirates Singapore Derby is already water under the bridge as he targets his well-beaten star duo of Gingerbread Man and Red Beard towards new riches this Sunday.

Normally a barrier trial also-ran, Gingerbread Man had to be credited with an “improved run” after he ran a smack-up fourth in heat 2 at Tuesday's session, pleasing his trainer Bruce Marsh no end, five days ahead of his contest in the $300,000 Group 2 Stewards' Cup (1400m).
