Hawkesbury Race 1 - Ladies Day Saturday 8 November Super Mdn Hcp
Very good maiden to kick things off. COLUMBUS (3) has closed off stoutly in his two runs to date, beaten under a length into minor placings on each occasion. Will improve as the distances increase. Like McDonald going - a sign of intent from veteran trainer Les Bridge. The promising stayer BLACK BABYLON (1) is back from a 198-day spell. Last appeared when beaten just over a length in the Group 2 Tulloch Stakes over 2000m. The mile looks a perfect trip while fresh. Should run very well with a couple of recent trials under the belt. LAUPER (4) came with a mighty run but missed by a whisker last time out over 1400m at Kembla. Genuine filly who will relish getting out to 1600m for the first time. SIR LOYNE (5) was just fair on debut last start at Rosehill but can improve sharply. Watch for a big run today from IRONHEART (6) who gets the blinkers on for the first time.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign third of 7 at Goulburn Bm58 July 8 over 2120m, in the wet; 11 len behind Maire De Paris with 58kg at $3.10. Previously first up; seventh of 11 at Wyong Prov Mdn May 8 over 1600m, in the wet; 6 len behind Johnny Smash carrying 55kg at $21. Has found a tough race to launch this prep so it might be best to wait for another day.
