SWISS AFFAIR is a full sister to useful winning sprinter Swiss Diva and needs a win to boost her paddocks value. After a couple of near-misses, she should finally get her head in front here. Jaarih was still beaten six lengths when second at Yarmouth but is preferred to stablemate Rock Royalty for forecast-backers. Feng Shui has made the frame in all three starts to date but has been racing over further. None of the others make much appeal on what they've shown so far and there is nothing special in the breeding of any of the newcomers either.
