Answer 1

http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/marscay  here's his lineage

Answer 2

yea i heard of him he was rele famous!!

Answer 3

He was an Australian horse who ran in the early 80s.  He got his name by combining his parents names... his sire was Biscay and the dam was Heart of Market...  so you take the first part of Market along with the last part of Biscay and you get Marscay.

Here's his stakes race results.  I copied and pasted... sorry about the all caps.  The first number is the year, then it gives the race name, the grade of the race, then the placings distance and times.

1983 AJC HOBARTVILLE STAKES G2 MARSCAY 1400 M STRAWBERRY ROAD  VELOSO 1:24.20  

1982 AJC UP AND COMING STAKES G3 MARSCAY 1200M          

1982 STC GOLDEN SLIPPER STAKES G1 MARSCAY 1200M VAINDARRA  GROSVENOR2 1:10.6  

1982 AJC SIRES PRODUCE STAKES G1 MIGHTY MANITOU 1400M GROSVENOR2  MARSCAY    

1982 STC TODMAN SLIPPER TRIAL G3 MCGINTY 1200M MARSCAY  DUKE DIAMOND 1:10.6  

you can see the same information here: http://www.pedigreequery.com/index.php?h...

but for some reason, the website includes races of other horses too...  i guess because they have Marscay in their name too.  The 90s races with Bint Marscay are the results of a filly that he sired.

You can see his picture here: http://www.pedigreequery.com/photos/mars...

he's the one at the top left.  the top right is his sire.

to actually answer your question...  no I never heard of him before...  but i looked him up, so now i have. ;o)
