Pins 4YO makes an impact in feature mile

3 October 2016

Mackintosh is Pins’ latest Group One performer after a bold showing in Saturday’s Epsom Handicap at Randwick. The progressive four-year-old gave another outstanding account of himself when a close third in the prestigious Sydney mile.

“Big run. I thought we had it everywhere bar the post,” rider Tommy Berry said. The WS graduate had won the Gr 2 Theo Marks Stakes at Rosehill when resuming at his previous appearance for the sixth win of his brief career.

Mackintosh is out of the Generous mare Lolly Scramble, who is a half-sister to the Group Two winner Viennetta. It is also the family of the Group One winners Anacheeva and Headturner.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

It is not the easiest role, that of Chairman of our Thoroughbred Racing Board. Like all chairmanships, one’s mind is rarely not occupied with the responsibility. To our Chairman, I say thanks. A lifetime in the industry, Chairman of our largest club, it is difficult to identify someone more suited to the role.
