2021 WILLIAM REID STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Ancestry and Pippie to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. With the pace looking sure to be strong throughout MASKED CRUSADER (6) looks to get a big leg up from the draw. Can camp on the back of that speed and roll out at the right time under the gun jock. Liked his run in the Canterbury Stakes and the 1300m run under the belt may be a bonus coming into what should be a high-pressure race here.

LIBERTINI (8) has the talent to beat them but wary of her getting into a tricky spot from the wide draw. Similar concerns around SEPTEMBER RUN (13) but like Libertini she has plenty of talent and that makes her mighty dangerous. PORTLAND SKY (12) gets a soft run from one and not underselling his Oakleigh Plate win while ANCESTRY (5) deserves a shot at this after flying around here last week.
