Race Tip

ACHESON (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when sixth over 6f at Canberra two weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. DIVINE SINNER (10) was a winner last time over 6f87yards at this track and re-unites with Izzy Neale who steered on that occasion. Will appreciate the big weight drop so he is a leading contender again. JASPER'S WAY (6) fought on well for third last start over 7½f at Muswellbrook, making it two minor placings in a row. Has a good gate and gets his chance to break through. THE ARTEFACT (9) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished third, beaten 6 lengths, over 6f87yards at this track. Ready to go a couple better.
