A masterful David Moran drive helped Spring In His Step take out the inaugural The Breakthrough Pace Final (Group 2).
\nMoran snagged back to last aboard the Russell Jack-trained four-year-old from outside the front line before producing the horse three-wide heading into the last lap.
\nThe Kialla reinsman was then able to drop in behind leader and favourite Kimble (Matthew Craven) down the back straight, peel off his back at the turn and race clear to win by more than 6m.
\nKimble battled on for second, with Bernie Winkle (Julie Douglas\/Ellen Tormey) rattling home for third.
\nSpring In His Step dead-heated in the first of the heats at Ballarat on January 22, with Kimble a dominant winner of the other.
\nThe entire now has eight victories from 25 career starts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
