Race Tip

FRENCH TRIP (3) was far from disgraced when second last start over 1m3/4f at Scottsville, beaten 1.4 lengths. That followed a win at Scottsville the start prior. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. BLACKBERRY BREEZE (6) last appeared five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1m1f at Vaal when he finished sixth. This is his first run for the Alyson Wright stable. Expecting a bright start for the new mentor. RED WILLIAM (1) finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m1 3/4f at Scottsville two weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Capable of testing this field. QUANTIFIER (5) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 25 when beaten 4 lengths into seventh at Scottsville over 1m4f. Has the talent to get back to winning ways.
