SHINBONER SMOKEY ( Stagger-Sunset Prada) drove to the front from his wide draw before saluting with his Maiden victory. The Graeme Hall trained youngster had been placed at 6 of his first 8 career starts. The blue dog defeated Stomped Tin by 3/4 length in 17.91.

SHINBONER PROUD (Paddy’s Flame-Zaconic Force) ended a losing sequence of 16 starts when he missed the trouble going off the back straight from the leaders running wide, before scoring by 3/4 length over Spot Check in 17.88. The win gave trained Graeme Hall an early winning double.

FOREVER SEVEN (Zack Monelli-Cimarron Strip) returned to the winners list when railing well to score a half length win over Don’t Turn in 17.66. The Dwayne Jovanovic trained dog had been racing without luck since defeating Cisco Ripple at Cannington back in May.
