Ipswich Race 6 - Barrier Reef Pools Mdn Hcp
SKORPIOS ISLE (7) put in a career-best performance when a close-up second over this track and trip at the latest effort and looks to be working up to a maiden victory. Graham sticks in the saddle and rates a genuine top-three candidate on that last run. PISTON REBEL (3) hit the frame on debut and will have come on with that outing now under the belt. Certainly cannot be discounted. PAPAL WARS (4) gets 2kg weight relief with the claim and will be at peak fitness for this. Looks one for the exotics players. BERTUS (9) gets the services of Cartwright in the saddle and is next in line in a race with a long tail.

Three-year-old gelding (The Autumn Sun - Mannya). Half-brother to four-time winner and Listed performed Reflect The Stars. Will no doubt benefit from the four trials leading in today's debut. Fifth over 1200m in a Deagon trial on July 8. Prefer to see under race conditions.
