The first race of night was a combined open class. In front of a big Globe Derby crowd all eight ponies stepping away nicely, the early leader was Born To Be Wild being off the front mark, followed by Summer Surprise, Aadelaidee Lady, Chilli Knights, Petti Cheval, Mr Mischief and Way To Go.

Rounding the bend at the 400 meter mark Summer Surprise took over the lead and never looked back. Aadelaidee Lady and Chilli Knights were closing in on the leader but Summer Surprise was far too good for them. The final placings were Summer Surprise Cheyenne Moritz, second was Aadelaidee Lady for Madison Smith and third was Chilli Knights for Chantelle Rendall.

Summer Surprise and Cheyenne Moritz made it back to back wins and were presented the winning rosette by The Governor and Dr Richard Noble.

The second race of the night was a field of ten Shetlands going around including the interstate visitor (but SA home grown) Pee Wee Penny driven by Angus Webster the son of SA best reinsman Geoff Webster.

When the starter said go PJ was an early leader from Swamp Fire, Razzle Dazzle, Eddy’s A Fake, Our Sir Patchalot, Pee Wee 50, Ben Ten, Crackerjack, Pee Wee Penny and the back marker Wandarra Tess.

Rounding the bend into the home straight PJ was soon tackled by Swamp fire for the lead and was making every post a winner out in front. Swamp Fire went on to be an easy winner from Ben Ten and Jason Kittel and third was Lachlan Ramsay on Pee Wee 50.  It was a juggling of positions coming to the line with all 10 ponies crossing the line with only 15 metres separating the entire field.

 

This was Nicholas Brown’s first win on Swamp Fire for this season and he had a massive smile on his face after the race. Well done Nicholas.
