On a hot sunny day, a big crowd was on hand to see former local Trainer Darren McAuliffe take out the $90,000 Mungrup Stud Sprint with Spitfire Ace, who held out a fast finishing Raw Metal and local galloper Carbineer. On a day when the track was upgraded to a Good2, two track records were broken for the 1100m and 1300m distances.
Race One: Jake The Musk confirmed the support into favourtism was justified with an easy all the way win at his sixth race start, beating From The Fire who ran an improved race and Rivotio who ran on fairly but never looked a winning chance. Laurie's Dream finished next, but is struggling to break Maiden company.
Race Two: Rock My Pago was far too good and came away to win easily over Timely Reign who finished off the 2000m well. Sir Clase is struggling to get back to his best form, but the should be better suited next run.
Race Three: Montclar Miss improved on its last run, with a solid effort to beat a very green Go Red Dot and Ibrahimovic who ran on strongly. Royal Escapade sat back and and finished on fairly, whilst Ivory Lady was a very good effort at her debut from a wide draw.
Race Four: The Golden Dynamo finally broke through after seven placings with a solid win over Hussonace who battled on fairly, but looked dour and maybe looking for more ground. Favourite Puerto Galera was given every chance and was a shade disappointing. Pulashaky ran another honest race and is sure to win one soon.
Race Five: Favourite Jean had the run of the race and easily won breaking the track 1100m record. Saramento raced outside the leader and fought on well, and a win is close. Pwakkers Back ran on fairly, with Versaint going hard in front and just missing the placings. Punk'd raced back in the field and was never in it.
Race Six: There was plenty of chances at the 100m here, but Cheval Rose racing third up at only her fifth race start stayed the trip best and got up narrowly over Ruberian who looked the winner with Carallen Steel close up third. St Peregrine looked a chance at the 100m but just failed to stay the trip. Trochee never looked to travel well and finished well back. The win of Cheval Rose was a change of luck for the stable.
Race Seven: Trimconnection appreciated the extra 100m and made it back to back wins with a solid victory over Redford who was a very good effort first up. All Spots again ran a consistent race to finish third, whilst Cherpara looked flat and struggled.
Race Eight: Spitfire Ace fired straight out onto the pace and took the lead after straightening and held out Raw Metal who ran on solidly from the rear to finish second with Carbineer also running on well for third. Electrical General who raced three wide finished on well for fourth with Noble Steed a solid effort. Favourite Proart had no luck in running, with a check shortly after the start and then held up, when Northwater Boy was beaten before the turn.
Race Nine: Star Buck continued his good form with an easy victory over Troubled Smile who hit the front at the 250m and battled on fairly. Stormglow finished a distant third, and I'm Called Earl ran on strongly. Height Of Heights set a solid pace in front and faded racing first up.
Race Ten: Jockey Shaun Meeres went within a head of riding four winners when Look Here Trousers just missed out when beaten by The Keillor Kid who ran on well for apprentice Amy Sandiford, who should look forward to getting more opportunities soon. King's Tribute ran on well to just get third ahead of pacemaker Speedy Bohemian. Favourite Dark Humour was slow into stride and never looked likely.
