R7. Ascot Gold Cup - 1 January 1970
|
Commander Pike
Going with the usual Pike + Peters = $$ formula and it is very hard to see Illuminated getting rolled here. I've been a serious doubter over the past few weeks but after fighting to victory last start after pulling harder than an inform Ricky Ponting I really think the Medaglia D'Oro gelding is the real deal. Should get a decent run up on the speed behind Kirov Boy and Rebelson who look the likely pace makers. Without #GwanDanny in the saddle it's hard to tell how Kirov Boy will be ridden but surely he'll go forwards at some stage while Rebelson should be allowed to roll forwards. From the chasing brigade Young Lionel is in career best form while Raising Dubai gets a rare chance to run with only 54kg. Savanarola returns for his group of attractive owners but will probably be out the back and struggling to pick them up over 1800, looking for him probably third up over 2200 to get a few much needed ratings points en route to the Perth Cup.

Highlight for mine (aside from winning on the punt and BHB) was Ben Paterson winning a Saturday City again. Well deserved - good guy, good ride \m/

Wow Delicacy couldn't have had a better run in transit. She's just no good fresh as the Autumn proved. At least the track isn't as leader biased as I thought. But that information is useless to me now. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????...
