Atalntic Coast is hard to oppose here and is taken to beat Let It Be and Young Scotton. Most have these have found it hard to trouble the judge recently, but not the selection who has recorded two victories this season. The latest came in a decent enough contest at Newbury, when comfortably beating High Point. The four pound rise shouldn't be enough to stop the follow up this afternoon. Let It Be has had plenty of races since winning here last September, but hasn't really been firing on all cylinders. However that succes did come off a seven pound higher mark and so he has to be respected in this company. Young Scotton showed improved form last time out and is another in with a squeak, however Atlantic Coast is at the top of his game and is a confident choice.
