R2. Red Shoe Society Wa Handicap - 1 January 1970

Captivating debut
Captivating Point was potentially the best backed horse at Albany all year on debut when opening around $2.50 in some pre-post markets and closing closer to the $1.50 mark than the original quota. He put on an absolute clinic when getting off the fence rounding the home corner and belting rivals to the tune of almost 6 lengths. This is obviously harder but Steve Wolfe is a cunning Aussie battler and doesn't bring horses to town unless they're ready to fight for a cheque. I'd be expecting Captivating Point to prove up to this class and can run a race at eachway odds. Recoiled looked unsuited on a wet track over 1200m where he had to work for the lead and was ultimately outgunned late. Back to 1000m suits and he should lead to the 100m post and be very hard to roll. Brisanto just keeps winning of late after looking a shot duck at the corner. Query dropping back to 1000m as they might be a bit sharp for him, but winning form is good form.

agree they went too hard upfront, just look at the second last and last horse before the bend and where they finished, Culverin & KOK flew home into the placings, that wouldn't have been possible if the pace upfront wasn't so hot

As somebody mentioned earlier KOK fair dinkum dawdled out of the barriers.The new whip rules may not suit a horse like him. He needs stoking up! Former great jockey Rod Kemp would be a perfect fit to ride.
