Cambridge Race 4

BETAVET BUILDAGUT HANDICAP TROT

Stake: $8,000

RUBY RIDGE (7) started from a 20m handicap to find winning form here two back then came from the same mark and performed well again to place over this distance last time. Going well and has strong claims. Expecting MAZEPPA (5) to relish getting back to this circuit having won the last three times he raced here. The return could see him find winning form again. DEL SHANNON (6) is proven fresh so should be kept safe. TRIPPY TYRON (1) visited this circuit for the first time last week and overcame a 30m handicap to win over this distance. Up in grade but the class rise is offset by the front mark.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start 10th (Fr1) over 2200m at Alexandra Park, well beaten by Halberg (2:48.30) in 3yo+ on May 2 at $18.70. The start before pulled up at Alexandra Park on April 11 over 2200m. Won the last two times he raced here so a return to form is on the cards.
