Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Nordic Chief. HAT'S PRIDE (3) is back in winning form latest when found the line strongly. Yet to win here but just missed two back. Has found form now and expected to measure up again. NORDIC CHIEF (4) is fitter for two runs in and should be ready for the longer trip now. Has two wins here and expected to go close. HANDSOME PRINCE (5) is closing in on a win. Placed this course and distance latest and among the main chances. RED DAWN (6) kept coming fresh for a close-up fourth. Goes well here and looks an improver with definite claims.
