Under hot skies on a track rated a good four, conditions were perfect for racing, and the locals relished their chances.

"I reckon that's the best ride by any jockey on one of my horses in the last couple of years," Morgan told Sky Thoroughbred Central.
"He doesn't want to win, he has no intentions of it ... the horse can gallop, but he's got to apply himself a lot better."
Morgan then went back-to-back when Talbragar charged across the line to win by one-and-a-half lengths in race five.
The last of Tamworth's wins came courtesy of Martin's eight-year-old gelding, Poet Lad, who snuck home first in yet another tight finish in race six.
