GOING: S

Perth Racing Club M'ship (C1) 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Showers Late   Rail: Out 12m. (Pent: 6.6).  

Mystery Affair and Burning Pride will be prominent early. Pace genuine with Mystery Affair and Burning Pride pushing forward from wide out. MYSTERY AFFAIR was well supported latest and ran away with a strong win. Drawn out here but will take running down again. PRINCESS TARA is fitter for two runs back and looks ready to win. Worked home well for a close up fourth latest and from a nice draw is expected to go close. EVERYTHING'S SWEET has been working up to a win including a last start second. Should be ca per just off the speed and putting herself into the race in the straight. IRISH MOSHE is overdue for a win and looks an each way chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Mystery Affair.
