ART OF DIPLOMACY (1) continues to race in fine form providing consecutive wins. Latest victory an impressive 13L success in a 4200m chase at Newton Abbot and is well placed to extend the winning streak.

Recent form impressive for this race. Last outing favourite; raced just off the speed and boxed to post a big 7 len win. Perth on September 25 over 4020m defeating Frisby carrying 69.5kg at $1.90 in a steeplechase. Start before ran on from midfield; finished second in a small field at Perth on September 8 over 4000m, 1.3 len behind Lightkeeper with 70.5kg at $2.20. Could prove hard to beat.
