He\u2019s just getting stronger and stronger with every start really.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 2500 didn\u2019t really bother him too much, he did it pretty good. He does seem to be a better horse from behind, but he\u2019s just started to switch on now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lauriston Bloodstock\u2019s Honolua Bay won ahead of Perfect Stride, who flashed to the line along the sprint lane for his best result of the series, while Zeuss Bromac boxed on well for third, clinching his final\u00a0place. He held Torrid Saint in fourth, which would oust the latter from the final 12 on a countback, while Better Eclipse\u2019s 25 banked points meant his last placing wasn\u2019t fatal for his series hopes.<\/p>\n<p>Stewart also had a grip on\u00a0the second heat, with Bruce and Val Edward\u2019s Act Now continuing his outstanding front-running record with driver Jodi Quinlan.<\/p>\n<p>She was able to see off The Black Prince\u2019s early challenge in a lead time 1.4 seconds quicker than the first and there would be little reprieve, with Expensive Ego sitting on his outside for the final mile.<\/p>\n<p>In large part the brisk pace could be attributed to the leader according to his reinswoman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe overraced a little bit too much for my liking than he normally does,\u201d Quinlan told TrotsVision. \u201cHad to shake him up out of the gate when The Black Prince tried to cross and it sort of set him alight a little early and he didn\u2019t really want to settle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A 29sec first quarter was followed by a 28.9sec second, and then Act Now got motoring with a 27.4sec third that would have the chasers gasping.<\/p>\n<p>Expensive Ego was game but didn\u2019t threaten in the run home, however, Bundoran emerged from three back in the running line with a withering run to go within a short half-head of clinching the victory. At extreme odds, Amanda Turnbull\u2019s entrant produced a successive second placing that will have him looming as a final\u00a0smokey.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Delight\u2019s fifth placing would also see him advance, but well-rated Majestic Cruiser\u2019s campaign was snuffed out, with his seventh placing leaving him a point shy of final\u00a0qualification.<\/p>\n<p>For Quinlan, the winner gave her a first Inter Dominion Pacing Championship starter\u00a0and, fittingly, he&#8217;s an entire with whom she has a deep connection, having steered 16 of his 17 victories.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe doesn\u2019t have to lead (to win),\u201d she said. \u201cHe has shown he is versatile, but you hope for a good draw so you have plans A and B.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark Pitt and Geelong owners Danny and Jo Zavitsanos produced\u00a0a second successive win with Mach Dan.<\/p>\n<p>Having motored past Expensive Ego to score at Shepparton, at Geelong he made all the running, sliding forward after Petes Said So and then I Cast No Shadow worked early to gain critical pegline runs.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Pitt and Mach Dan were able to set their own tempo, with little pressure from Narutac Prince on their outside, and after the brisk lead time they were able to balance up through the last half.<\/p>\n<p>A 27.6sec third quarter spilled into a 27.4sec run to the line that would see the running line fade, with Narutac Prince (eighth) and Spirit Of St Louis (10th) failing to fire but both having banked enough points to advance.<\/p>\n<p>Instead the story belonged to New South Wales pair Petes Said So (KerryAnn Morris) and I Cast No Shadow (Jason Grimson), whose hard-earned great positioning paid dividends as they ran into second and third, just a tick over two metres in arears of the winner.<\/p>\n<p>The subsequent points would catapult them into the final 12, Petes Said So comfortably on 29 points and I Cast No Shadow on a countback.<\/p>\n<p>While there was drama all around him it wasn\u2019t felt by Mach Dan, whose win completed a clean sweep of victories by female trainers, seven of which were registered by Stewart and the remainder by Belinda McCarthy (Spirit Of St Louis, Night 2) and Jess Tubbs (Better Eclipse, Night 1).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019 been super,\u201d Pitt said of Mach Dan post win. \u201cCome through his first run good, then his next was a lot better and tonight I think he was better again. I\u2019m really looking forward to this Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m super excited to be able to get the opportunity to drive this horse. He\u2019s a great little racehorse. I think he can (win), obviously the draw\u2019s going to be a big thing but I think he\u2019s a really live hope.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Michael Howard (HRV) ID2022 Pacing heats &#8211; Geelong The final strides of the SENTrack Inter Dominion pacing heats flipped the script, with Petes Said So and I Cast No Shadow launching into contention and unseating unlucky Torrid Saint and Majestic Cruiser for places in this Saturday&#8217;s Group 1 final.
