Ascot Race 3 - Mrs Mac's (Bm66+)
AMAROO STAR (6) is a promising gelding that made progress as a 3-year-old and resumed with a game neck win here 9 days ago. This is only slightly tougher, and William Pike keeps the faith. Hard to beat again, especially with a kilo less to carry. TYCOON HARRY (4) hit his stride third up here a month ago and led all the way to score by nearly 3 lengths. He loves 1000m, and will again take some pegging back. PIN DEEP (1) is not as effective on this track as he has been on other circuits, but he has still been placed twice from 8 starts, and was less than 2 lengths from the winner when fifth here 9 days ago. Stick with him for all top 4 combos. SIMPLY THINKIN' (2) won 3 of her 6 starts last prep, and she has won a tune-up trial last month to help her get ready for her return. She has the pole position and has to be respected. SONOFTHEBOSS (3) will have the blinkers off this time, and he was only run down late here 4 weeks ago over 1200m. Stick with him.

Resuming after a break of five months. Finished off last campaign seventh of 11 at Pinjarra Grad Hcp 60+ August 9 over 1400m, soft track; 4.5 len behind Lombadina with 59kg at $5.50. When resuming last campaign second of 11 at this track Cl3 March 19 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Tawkin' Jibberish carrying 59.5kg at $6. This race is tougher than what she was up against last time in and hard to imagine she'll play a role in this.

Most recently led to the turn then faded 5th of 12 at this track Rtg 72+ on December 13 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Timeless Gem carrying 55.5kg at $15. The run before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 10th of 16 at this track Rtg 72+ on December 6 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Black Ora carrying 56.5kg at $31. Worth plenty of thought.

At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 9 at this track Rtg 66+ on December 13 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Haida Gwaii with 57.5kg at $101. The run before that failed to make an impression; second last of 15 at this track Rtg 66+ on November 22 over 1200m, 8 len behind Smooth Chino with 58.5kg at $101. Wasn't too far off the mark last time. Worth following up.

Second run back. First-up after five months favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a long-neck at this track Grad Hcp 60+ January 1 over 1000m defeating Magnique with 58kg at $3.30. Previously second-up settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at Bunbury Grad Hcp 60+ on July 19 over 1000m, slow going 3 len behind Terratif with 58kg at $7. In the money when second up in the past and can add to that record today.

First-up. Finished off last campaign ninth of 13 at Belmont Park Cl3 July 30 over 1650m, soft track; 6 len behind Kervette with 57kg at $12. First up last campaign third of 11 at Bunbury Mdn February 27 over 1100m, 0.5 len behind Sesh with 56.5kg at $8.50. Might be better off following this run.
