TWOHEARTONEDIAMOND broke through for her Maiden victory at start number 52 at Gloucester Park last night. The five-year-old Foreclosure mare had been placed at 10 in her career before her gutsy win. After settling near the rear of the field, a clever drive by Kyle Harper saw him follow the favourite Mach Freeway into the race coming to the home corner. The Clinton Pearce trained mare then levelled up in the home straight before narrowly scoring in the Bridge Bar Open Every Game Day Pace.
Earlier in the night Joseph Suvaljko saluted with his 100th win when he drove the Bob Mellsop filly Girl Of Brightness to victory in the Trotsynd Shares Available 3yo Pace. The Advance Attack filly won at Bunbury back in November last year before racing without luck in her next few starts. Suvaljko drove the bay filly straight to the lead from barrier four and was never threatened scoring over Mysta Moon Walker.
Yankee Lover recorded his first win in WA when he saluted for trainer/driver Gary Hall (jnr). Hall settled the former Victorian Trotter in the one-by-one position before making his winning run and storming to the front into the home straight. He then raced away to win easily from Sellune at just his second WA start.
