Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Atlantic Ridge. ATLANTIC RIDGE (1) has been racing in a rich vein of form this campaign with three wins and two seconds from six outings and gets 2kg weight relief with the claim. Looks the one in this field they all have to run down. The well-related HI ZERO (3) (half to G2 winner and G1 placed Son Of Maher) got the job done over this track and trip last time out and is sure to have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. Another to get some weight off and looms as the main danger. PHILADELPHIA FREE (4) has placed four from six around this circuit and looks one for the exotics players. NASA (7) strips fitter second-up and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Atlantic Ridge to win.
