Breeding: William Longsword – Exquisite Touch by Var (USA)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Muzi Yeni
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 8 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 33/1
He has been disappointing to date. The stable has opted to drop him to the 1000m, and he will be fitted with the blinkers for the first time. Muzi Yeni is booked to ride and he is expected to show improvement.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers ON. Drops to 1000m and the blinkers will sharpen him up. Can improve.

Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 5 (10 Runners)

She showed speed in her stable debut with the blinkers fitted last time. The daughter of Vercingetorix has come on from the outing but may still need this run to bring her to peak fitness.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Kotzen G S-2023.09.17. 2nd run after rest. Best MR:54. Poor form shown thus far. Others preferred.

9 – Smashing
Breeding: Rafeef (AUS) – Wrecking Ball by Great Britain (GB)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Muzi Yeni
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 6 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
She has produced two promising runs over 1000m. The daughter of Rafeef is a progressive type and she is doing well at home. Muzi Yeni is booked to ride and we are hoping to see her in the winner’s enclosure.
Winning Form Comment: Decent latest when behind number 3. Big danger in this line-up.
