#12 Affirm can find the front early in a bid to offset the wide draw. He’s taken running down at times and has shown that he’s ever so close to a first win. He’ll take some reeling in. #5 Flying Luck charged home on debut to grab sixth. That effort was eye-catching and the added distance should suit. He’ll be coming hard and late. #9 Mr Valiant is a one-time winner. He’s been solid this term and gets his shot from the gate. Zac Purton sticks with #1 Nebraskan, who is clearly open to further improvement. Keep safe.
