Steven Burridge continued his relentless march to his first trainer's premiership with a quartet of winners at Kranji here tonight.

With seven-time champion Laurie Laxon drawing a blank, the Aussie is now 16 winners clear at the head of the pack with 64 wins.

Burridge got off to a winning start for the evening with GOLDEN SCALPEL (Fusaichi Pegasus - A Slew Indeed by Seattle Slew) bagging his second win in 24 starts.

Two races later, it was odds-on favourite SHAOLIN SOLDIER (Exceed And Excel - Dynamic Love by Brave Warrior) who obliged.

Burridge's third winner of the night came courtesy of TOBIAS (Germano - Vienna Belle by Crested Wave) and he wound up the evening with TEEN ANGEL (My Halo - Lamri by Danasinga).

The star performer of the night was MERCHANT (Fubu - So Divine by So Factual) who made it three wins and a third in four starts when winning the Class 3 - 1200m sprint.
