|---|---|---|---|---|

Expecting Rockribbed to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. The $160,000 Listed ATC Trophy. The well-related NEED SOME LUCK (12) (half to 6xG1 winner and people's champion Chautauqua) is building up an impeccable race record only missing a drum once in 11 career starts and showed he had come back in fine fashion with a strong Randwick win when resuming. Is yet to miss the top-two in seven starts over this six-furlong journey and gets along well with Tommy Berry. Looks very hard to toss. You'd love to own a stable of gallopers like BOOM TORQUE (3) who is yet to miss the top-five in 18 career outings. Never puts in a poor one and is sure to run his usual honest race. INFANCY (4) saluted at Group 2 level first-up and gets the services of J Mac in the irons. Hard to leave out. THE INFLICTOR (15) strips fitter second-up from the break and draws the inside marble. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Need Some Luck to continue the picket fence.
