Race 4 SOUTHLAND & OTAGO PHOTO FINISH - C1 - 390 BLACK JAY was last to jump. Into the bend JAMES ARTHUR pushed up along the rail pushing JAFFA GUN wider on to BLICKLING BRIDGE.

Co-trainer Andy McCook was questioned in regards to the improved performance of the winner WYNDHAM. He stated that the dog had trained off towards the end of his last campaign and was put out for a spell coming back from the spell in excellent condition. Mr McCook added that the dog had been trialling well and a bold effort was expected.
Race 6 ADDED ENERGY - C2 - 390 The favourite ZEBIDIAH was very awkwardly away from the inside losing five lengths.
