Baton Rouge to take charge ahead of Coco's Hero at a solid tempo. FUTURE FREE (2) made good progress last time in winning last two before a spell. Fair fresh but fitter and expecting sharp improvement. Has upside and looks an excellent winning chance. IGNITE THE FIRE (4) is in fine form winning last two. First try at the trip but is a winner here and off the low draw should enjoy a soft run. Expected to go well. ARBITRATION (5) is overdue for a win and did place only try course and distance, Capable of a big finish so don’t write him off. COCO'S HERO (6) scored last start at this track to make it three wins from three starts this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Deserves respect on best figures.
