R3. Macau Handicap - 1 January 1970

Lindsey Smith may have a good one here in Madassa
Madassa made a very auspicious debut with a slashing win at Bunbury at his first start, this horse does look to have an abundance of ability and should bounce to the front here and take some running down around the tight Ascot track. The 54kgs will make his job all the more easier to hang on up the straight, probably more to the point the 58 Kgs on the back of his main danger in Castle Retreat may make it just too hard for him to run down Madassa. Hard to fault Castle Retreats form isnt it, but there does appear enormous upside to Madassa and we will go for him to keep up his unblemished record. Star Glitter is another with bright prospects, he meets Castle Retreat better on weights from their last encounter, he will appreciate only carrying 54kgs, and definately looks the other main chance in this race. Ripper Red ran on very well last week, surprised to see him switched back to 1000 metres here, but on that effort may be some place or first four chance for punters today.

I will add, though that I hope Bob Peters thinks long and hard when considering an Autumn campaign for Disposition. It would be awfully hard to resist an Australian Guineas-Australian Cup campaign but the way Ihtsahymn has dropped off from last year is a worry...

Having watched the replay of the Cox Stakes I think the only way Steven Parnham erred on Ihtsahymn was that he didn't hold his position when Pike crowded him in the home straight on Elite Belle before taking his run over the closing stages. Parnham then had to...

I was close in my prediction. Mr Moet - 59kg Ihtsahymn - 58.5kg Chester Road - 58kg Balmont Girl - 57kg Remainder - 54kg Real Love on the 54kg minimum will start a very short priced favourite

i think Respondant is the one to beat. Will outstay them imo Hopefully B Parnham is not on bit fear he will be.....should have won last start... Real Love certainly not home and hosed. But looks the one to beat. Peters will fill the trifecta no problem, ...

i think Respondant is the one to beat. Will outstay them imo Won a walk and sprint Derby out of a sprinting mare Avenida Madero RL bred to stay all day ,if the ST Leg was 2400m RL would have won by 5 L untouched
