And she did it untouched!
The Bendigo track has been sensational...even better since 60 tonnes of material was spread ( with a farm super-spreader) just before the Bendigo Cup. It has a very good cushion.

Ideal Success, first start in Australia for Kerryn Manning, broke the track record at Horsham last Thursday. Rated 1.54.4 and won by 24.6metres

Thanks Robert missed that one. Amazing when you consider that that was the first meet on the brand new track - new sprint lane, new camber, new surface.

I've just watched the replay, he basically put all of the margin on in the home straight, he spent a little while out 3 wide before getting to the death.

I just had a look at it too. IMPRESSIVE
He might not have placed in his previous 10 starts in NZ but have a look at who he was racing against! (And he did win 9 of 10 if you go back further)

The Bendigo track record over 1609 for trotters was broken last night in the second race by Keayang Yankee, which led all the way and recorded 1:55.4

That only lasted for three races, as Quite a Moment took .1 off that in the fifth race recording 1:55.3

I guess they running mile races for the Need for Speed trotters series but hoofnote Glenferrie Typhoon sub 1.55 last month at Bendigo over 1650.

Unusual in these days of ever improving times to see a Gp1 Cup run in a MR of 2.01.5 a whole 5 secs outside the Tk Rec MR
