The Phillip Stokes trained Athanatos heads the Ladbrokes.com.au favourite for the VOBIS Gold Reef (1600m) this afternoon at Flemington.
The three year old has been runner up in recent times but is bursting to win. He heads betting, and with confidence at $3.10, in from $3.60.
Ndola is at $3.70 on the second line of betting, ahead of last start maiden winner Storm Season at $4.40. He is clear of Bossy Benita at $5.50, who has been kept safe with online wagering companies.
