A minute silence was held for one of our tireless workers being Edward Payne, better known as Tiger Payne, who passed away early this week.
With the track being dethatched and cored during the week, times should have been slower but in the first race, the Blue Paws Maiden saw an even start with Wamberal Teddy getting to the front around the bend only to be run down by Glendale Wastrel in the straight to win for Glen Schwencke in 18.09. Wamberal Teddy was second and third was Coota Jack having his first start.
