On a typical Saturday afternoon Melbourne metro race meeting you will find Allana Burns. The well-respected form analyst can be found standing against the rails, race book in hand when the field jumps from the barriers. Allana is not your standard form analyst. Being a young woman, she has learnt the ins and outs of finding winners.

Allana's interest in horse racing started as a hobby but after realizing her talent for studying the form guide she decided to take it seriously, never losing her passion for the sport.

Allana will be join us on RSN's Sporting Women for the spring to help us read the form and also preview the major races over the spring.
