Nozi Tomizawa took Coral Flight to a ten length lead during the running of the 1850 metre class 3 race at Toowoomba last night. It was a bold run by the fifty to one shot and he almost stole the race. They came for him in the closing stages. Sittinbul who looked tired earlier, picked himself up to be prominent in the closing stages and short priced favourite Kesthin challenged with in an inside run but Nori Yamada, who timed his run to perfection had taken Argenteum to the outside. He claimed Coral Flight and the race in his very last bound. Sittinbul finished third and Kesthin was fourth.
It was trainer Neville Saunders’ third victory in eight days. The win was Argenteum’s fourth and pushed his earnings to more than $70,000.
