Genuine tempo from Dark Archer leading King Samuel. UNDER THE LIMIT (1) is an honest commodity who has only missed the top-five once in his past 15 outings. Is always thereabouts and has to be considered. KING SAMUEL (5) is having his first run for the new stable and any market support should be noted. LAST ROYAL (12) saves his best form for this distance range with a win and two placings from four attempts. Hard to ignore. FINSCEAL (4) next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Under The Limit to win.
