Bathurst's Josh Turnbull trained the winner, with veteran Doug Hewitt providing a masterful drive aboard the three year old gelding.
He burst out of the blocks from outside on the first row by and from then on, no runner could get anywhere near him, eventually winning ahead of PROMISE TO ROCK by a dominant 17 metres at $9.50 fixed.
After THE GIRLS HAVE IT was disqualified, SHEZ ON TARGET managed to secure third.
Cowra trainer Monique Parsons had two starters at the meeting with HICHINBROOK finishing fourth.
