Winds Of Change can blow hot
The Mercury
|July 11, 2025
Legendary to make a statement
THERE look to be some lucrative opportunities on the poly at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Sunday starting in the second. Candice Bass-Robinson has not sent many runners up from the Cape for Champions Season but Winds Of Change can pay some bills.
He was never in the hunt in the soft going behind Tenango in the Gr1 Golden Horse Sprint but had solid feature race form prior to that.
He makes his poly debut but is weighted to win the first leg of the Bi-Pot.
Berrington Blew
Berrington Blew should get the PA off to a solid start.
Although, well beaten last run by Quickstepgal, Tienie Prinsloo's filly has since finished second in a Gr2 on Hollywoodbets Durban July day to boost that form.
With only 50.5kg to shoulder she could prove difficult to beat.
However, Holy Star has improved with each run and Gavin Lerena will be up and against an inexperienced apprentice while Priory Terrace has finished runner-up at her first two starts and cannot be ignored.
It gets a lot more difficult from here in.
Doug Campbell sends out Valli Gal in the first leg of the Pick 6 and she showed up well when back after a break.
She goes well over course and distance and must have a strong chance in this lineup although she faces a number of fillies with ultralight weights which could muddy the waters.

Transforming Trump's G20 snub into a strategic advantage for South Africa
THE announcement by US President Donald Trump that South Africa will be “uninvited” from the 2026 G20 Summit is, at face value, a diplomatic provocation. But beneath the headlines lies a far more consequential opportunity: the chance for South Africa - with its business leadership at the forefront - to redefine its global narrative, champion multilateralism and strengthen its position as a bridge between the West and the Global South.
