Prize Money: -

ATLANTIC CITY (5) was successful at her most recent outing by 6 metres in a break through win this campaign at this track over 2600m. Recent effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. CORMORAN STRIKE (7) ran fourth last start at this track over 2600m, beaten 12 metres. Expect him to be prominent. BRETT'S MATE (4) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fifth at this track over 2600m. Hard to find fault. DREAMS PAT (8) is better than his first-up tenth over 1980m at this track two weeks ago would suggest. Can place.

Didn't do much last start, 6th (Fr3) over 2600m at this track beaten 14 m by What The Dragon (3:22.00) in 4yo+ on July 25 at $14.30. Before that 5th (Fr4) over 1980m at this track, beaten 8 m by Love Walked In (2:29.50) in 3yo+ on July 18 at $8.90. Unlikely to threaten.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (10m 1) over 2600m at this track beaten 14 m by What The Dragon (3:22.00) in 4yo+ on July 25 at $15.40. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 3.5 m win (Fr8) at this track (2:29.70) beating Bonnie Bagrie in 3yo+ on July 18 at $5.70. Strong contender.
