GOING: S(5)

Archers the Strata Professionals Class 3 Plate 1800m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: Out 5m Entire.  

Expecting Diana's Affair to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. DIANA'S AFFAIR (1) has been knocking on the door of another victory with three consecutive runner-up finishes and this is not an overly strong affair. Grows a leg for Orman who has two wins and five placings from ten steers and should be able to sit on speed from the inside draw. Looks the hardest to toss. ULTIMATE OUTCOME (4) is another who has been racing consistently and gets in well at the weights with the 3kg claim. Capable of playing a major role. GLEN MASSEY (3) has won over this course and distance and is usually thereabouts. Cannot be ignored. STAR CHANCE (8) doesn't win out of turn but may earn a cheque with the right run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Diana's Affair to go one better.
