Traralgon Race 8 - 3Tr Fm

DAINTREE SNIPER (1) was out of in the placings when fifth last time but prior to that clocked a slick 28.83 win over 510m at Sale. Has the ability and looks a key chance again. ARCHER SWEET (6) chased the lead early from the inside draw but took over turning to score (28.53) at Bendigo in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win over 500m. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Expecting another bold showing. WARRIOR ETHAN (4) has missed the frame the last couple but just a few runs back pushed the clock when winning over 510m at Sale, taking a Grade 5 in a swift 28.83. Smart winner three back and looks a key chance on that form. EXCAVATOR TICKET (8) has top-three aspirations after placing at big odds last time.

Was out of placings last time (29.34) at Sale in a Grade 4/5, finishing eighth and beaten 9 lengths. Has two successes and three minors from nine starts from box 4. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
