MPNFL back in full swing

Round 3 of the MPNFL season featured some tense and hard-fought battles. In Division Two, Chelsea took on Pearcedale. Many eyes were on Mornington (pictured), who got a result against Hastings with the help of inform forward Jackson Calder. See sports page 10. Picture: Alan Dillon

Freeway works divert traffic Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au TRAFFIC detours are in place this week as work continues on the Mordialloc Freeway.

Howard Road at Lower Dandenong Road will be closed until 6pm on 23 April. While the road is shut, work will be undertaken to install new drainage, traffic lights and asphalt new lanes.

This month crews working on the

Where every girl from everywhere experiences success

Mordialloc Freeway are installing the remaining beams for the twin bridges over the Waterways wetlands, building the supports for the bridge over Lower Dandenong Road, installing barriers and drainage on the bridge on Centre Dandenong Road, and build-

ing the bridge retaining wall on the south side of Springvale Road.

Last month the pedestrian underpass at Braeside Park was opened, and bridge beams over Bowen Parkway were installed.

The completed freeway, projected

to cost $523 million, will span nine kilometres from the Mornington Peninsula Freeway at Springvale Road in Aspendale Gardens to the Dingley Bypass in Dingley Village. It is expected to be finished by the end of 2021.

Moment of madness, but no end to family’s pain ON a cold, wet night in Mount Eliza two years ago, Kalinda Nheu died when the driver of the yellow utility in which she was a passenger lost control, crossed the median strip, and skidded into the path of an approaching Ford Territory.

The impact of the collision killed the 19-year-old and the male driver of the ute instantly, while the driver of the Ford was seriously injured.

Somerville Highway Patrol police last week shared a video of the consequences of the tragic collision on Nepean Highway, opposite Mount Eliza Way. The video was part of Operation Nexus held over the Easter long weekend which targeted speed, drink/drug driving and mobile phone use.

In it, Kalinda’s father, Steven Nheu, recounted the pain of his family’s loss, and explained how their life had changed “in one second”.

He said the events which occurred on the “hardest night of my life” were not a dream from which they would awaken but would continue to haunt the family forever.

“To this day we still think about her; her bedroom is still empty.”

Mr Nheu said he would have liked to ask the young, also deceased male driver why he chose to speed: “Didn’t he think about the consequences?” he asked.

“I would be happy to get this message out to even one or two other young people: that would be enough.

“They have to remember that their parents suffer forever.”

More than a job: Leading Senior Constable Brent Thickens.

Leading Senior Constable Brent Thickens recounted the trauma of arriving at the fatal scene and trying to make sense of what had happened, all the while dreading having to deal with the consequences. “The hardest thing to do is dealing with the aftermath and

having to relay it to the families,” he said. “I’ve been in the highway patrol area since 2012 and, maybe, I’ll get to a stage where I can’t do it anymore.”

He pleaded with drivers to slow down. “You are not invincible.. You have got a few seconds to make the

right decision. Speed kills and the faster you go the harder you hit.”

While Leading Senior Constable Thickens was happy to share the family’s sad story and reiterate how lives can be lost in a second, it seems the message to “slow down” is still not getting through.

Mornington police were patrolling northbound on Peninsula Link at Baxter over the Easter long weekend when they came across a two-car collision, 2am, Saturday 3 April.

As they directed traffic around the scene, and with police cars and emergency services crews on either side of the road, a grey Mitsubishi drove by at “well over the 40kph limit required when police vehicles have their emergency lights flashing”.

The male driver, of Keilor East, was found to be over the limit and will be charged on summons to face court at a later date.

Gambling seen as blind spot ALTHOUGH gambling has become part of mainstream society, deeply entrenched within Australian culture, it has many losers.

“For most, gambling is fun, but for others a loss can be devastating,” Peninsula Voice chairperson Peter Orton said.

In a bid to highlight gambling’s downside Peninsula Voice has organised a forum next month called Is gambling harm our blind spot?

“Gambling has a built-in addictive component and to break the cycle can be extremely challenging,” Mr Orton said.

“The glib advertising statement that you should gamble responsibly is grossly inadequate for some and illustrates a lack of accountability by betting organisations.”

Mr Orton said the forum will “provide our community with vital information on how we can reduce the negative effects of gambling”.

Tim Costello AO, one of the key forum speakers, suggests that if gambling was an international sport, Australia would win gold, silver and bronze against other nations.

The Alliance for Gambling Reform says that since COVID-19 the nature of gambling has changed, with 80 per cent of all gambling now done online.

“It’s not local pokies and Tabs anymore, but international mega businesses,” Mr Orton said.

The Is gambling harm our blind spot? forum will be held 6pm-8pm Thursday 20 May at Peninsula Community Theatre, Wilson Road, Mornington. Details: peninsulavoice. org.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Train mounts platform in Seaford accident Compiled by Cameron McCullough DURING shunting operations on Tuesday night last, when a train of over 1000 tons weight was being maneuvered, an accident occurred, resulting in a loaded 10 ton truck leaving the rails and mounting the platform.

At the time the staff was working at full pressure in order to clear the “down” road for the passenger train.

Owing to the darkness, and the curve in the road, great difficulty was experienced in signalling the crew.

A train of this weight acquires very great momentum, and a driver requires ample time in which to pull his train up but owing to the conditions prevailing at the time, sufficient warning evidently could not reach the crew.

Although every possible effort was made to avert an accident, one truck crashed through the dead end.

This accident could not have happened if the train had reached Seaford at its schedule time, 3 o’clock, and if it is a case of office economy to make this train work at stations down the line, it has proved an expensive experiment.

The sand trade is booming, and not only is day shunting very necessary with such heavy trains, but the staff should be increased to deal with the work.

Seaford has the biggest revenue on this line and the smallest staff. *** THE gunboat Protector has joined the Australia at the Naval Base, Westernport.

The collier Biloela has also been at Westernport, but has now left for Sydney.

*** THE Minister of Public Works states that 88 ratepayers at Langwarrin have signed the petition regarding severance from the Shire of Cranboume and annexation to the Shire of Frankston and Hastings.

The voting showed: Against severance, 51; for severance, 37 – a majority of 14 for staying as things are. *** SEVERAL picnics have been held at Frankston Park lately, all being well attended.

On April 5th, the Photographers’ Association put in the day at cricket here, and on April 7th the Presbyterian Sunday School Mordialloc had an outing.

Last Saturday, the Painters and Decorators’ Union conducted sports here. *** ABOUT 40 years ago, Mr. W. Wauchope, manager of Adamson, Strettle and Co. Pty. Ltd., Dandenong, was a noted amateur rider, and rode several winners for Mr. M. Holt, of Berwick, the father of Mr. Jack Holt, the Mordialloc trainer, who has charge of Eurythmic, Blue Cross, etc.

Mr. Wauchope, who acted as steward for the horse events at the Somerville show, won four races in one afternoon on a mare called No Nothing, at Beaconsfield.

The mare was owned by Mr. Andrew Brunt, of Cranbourne, who is well-known about here.

Mr. Wauchope was also a prominent cricketer, and in 1896, when A. E. Stoddart’s English X toured Australia,

and played the Mornington Peninsula at Dandenong, he made 66, against the bowling of Lockwood and Richardson.

Mr. Jack Saddler, of Frankston, played in that match.

England made 195 (Stoddart 95) and 5 for 155 and the Peninsula made 225.

The game was drawn. *** THE Cranbourne Shire Council some time ago circularised shire councils, including the Shire of Frankston and Hastings, with reference to a compulsory contributory scheme for the insurance of dairy cattle, so that when the cattle were destroyed upon the outbreak of pleuro-pneumonia, compensation could be paid to the owners.

The Cranbourne council recently outlined the scheme before the Minister of Agriculture, who promised to devise a scheme on the lines suggested. *** A CRIMEAN veteran, Mr. James Nisbet, of Point Nepean, Mornington Peninsula, died in the Austin Hospital, Melbourne, on March 25th.

He was the son of Capt. James Nisbet, of the battleship “Revenge”, and nephew of General Gordon Petrie, of Burmah, India, and was 87 years of age.

For many years he was an engine driver at Point Nepean. *** WE were unable to publish in last issue all the speeches delivered by members of the deputation which waited on the council re the bowling green site.

We now record them in this column.

Mr Munro, ex Mayor of Hawthorn, said he was a yearly visitor to Frankston, but he did not enjoy himself to the fullest extent because there was no bowling green in the town.

For that reason many visitors went to Healesville, Sorrento, Lilydale, Queenscliff and other places where bowlers were catered for.

Mr Munro complained that he was compelled to roam about Frankston like a wandering sheep. (Laughter.)

He was pleased when he heard Frankston was to have a bowling green.

He was utterly dumbfounded at the modesty of their request in relation to the land asked for on the foreshore.

He had inspected the site, and found it a kind of swampy morass, which badly needed improvement.

They had the chance of making it one of the greatest attractions the town could possess.

He instanced numerous cases in which bowling greens had been made on Crown lands, among them being the Melbourne green, Carlton, South Melbourne, Victoria green, Flagstaff Gardens and others.

The Hawthorn City Council had purchased land at a cost of £10,000, and constructed bowling greens, tennis courts, swimming baths and other attractions for the public, and now the city was reaping the benefit of their enterprise.

People knowing the advantages offered had purchased properties as near as they could to Grace Park, as the area was now called, and many beautiful homes had been erected in Hawthorn because of it.

Mr Munro said that the point had been stressed that the land at Frankston was wanted for the children.

He asked consideration for the older children. (Hear, hear.) He was 76 years of age and was as ardent a bowler today as ever he was.

He hoped the opposition to the site would be withdrawn.

Personally he did not think they were asking for enough land – they should apply for a bigger area. He could find plenty of picnic places along the foreshore, and superior ones too, to the area in question, and he sincerely hoped that all would co-operate in helping to form a bowling green, and thus give the old fogies a chance to enjoy themselves.

Mr C. Dalman said the council had already granted the site and the deputation wanted to know if in view of the letter from the department, the permission to occupy was withdrawn.

Councillors in chorus assured Mr Dalman that there was no withdrawal.

Mr T. J. McMurtrie said a bowling green was wanted in Frankston and the spot under discussion was an ideal place for it.

The people were behind the council and would back them up.

He was astonished that any opposition should be shown, for at St. Kilda no trouble was experienced in getting sites on the foreshore.

They would grant land there for anything. *** FROM the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 15 April 1921

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

For Better or Worse, Music is the roadmap to your soul

By Stuart McCullough I HAVE a lot of CDs. For those who don’t remember, CDs (or ‘compact discs’) were how you purchased music back when people still bought music rather than rented it. Hard to imagine now, I know. I used to buy CDs weekly. Each Saturday, I’d take a trip to the store and make what I hoped would be wise and judicious selections. I’d fossick around for hours before marching up to the counter. As I did, I’d always be looking for some flash of recognition from the person tallying my purchases – a small facial inflection that said ‘this person really knows their stuff.’ I don’t know why approval is so important when it comes to music, it just is.

My purchases were a mix of the well-researched and pure, gut instinct.

It might have been an article I’d read about the band or a review in a music magazine that piqued my musical interest. Or the cover. More often than not, I wouldn’t have heard the songs before buying them. It was a leap of faith into the musical unknown. An act of curiosity designed to expand my horizons. Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it didn’t. There are definitely some CDs that were played once in the car on the way back from shopping and were never played again.

The role of CDs in my life has changed. I used to have a box of CDs that I carried around in the car, swapping out the contents based on my taste at the time. I did this to ensure that I had access to high quality music whenever I was driving. Traffic lights were opportunities to change discs. During this time, I mastered the art of being able to swap CDs without

looking. In my house, every flat surface was occupied by a small pile of CDs, waiting patiently to be played.

No more.

I was in high school when compact discs first appeared. It was in a music class and the teacher spoke of CDs as

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News

if they were an invention that would rival penicillin in terms of sheer usefulness to human kind. I couldn’t tell you the name of the piece, but it was classical music rather than pop. The teacher put it in and pressed play before a look of pure serenity came over

his face. This, he claimed, was nothing short of a miracle. The difference, it was said, was quality.

I was a tape person at the time. Most kids were. I owned very few records and generally avoided them. The record player was located in the living room. This meant that music played on the record player would be music the whole house would have to listen to. There are seven people in my immediate family – the chances of consensus on anything, much less music, were slim to none. My father owned records by the Randy Van Horne Singers and of the Beatles once predicted that ‘people would never tolerate that kind of rubbish’; he wasn’t going to think much of the things I wanted to play. In Venn diagram terms, there was nothing to work with.

Music is personal. Which is why tape decks were so vitally important. I had a tape deck in my room and there I could listen to anything I wanted. I could also tape songs I liked off the radio. This was an art in itself. You had to have the tape cued up and leap upon the ‘record’ button within the first two seconds of your song coming on.

Sometimes the disc jockey would ruin it by talking over the intro. (Surely they knew they were ruining the home taping efforts of teenagers everywhere when they did this. Maybe that was the point.)

I was proud of my efforts. Every mix tape was a work of art and the latest tape was always the best one I’d ever made. I don’t know what became of those cassettes. I’m not sure I even own a tape deck now. It goes to show how far the cassette has fallen – from indispensible to relic within a couple

of decades.

As I packed my CDs into boxes this week, I was confronted by every choice I’d ever made on those Saturday mornings. Some I was proud of.

Some were mystifying. More than just my musical taste at a particular point in time, these CDs were tangible evidence of the person I was trying to be.

They were like musical fingerprints.

A box set of Maria Callas because I wanted to understand opera (not sure I succeeded, still trying though). A copy of ‘What’s Going On’ by Marvin Gaye because it was reputed to be one of the greatest albums of all time (which it is). Dave Pike’s ‘Jazz for the Jet Set’ because the cover had a lady with a fishbowl on her head. (Which, apparently, was enough to prompt me to buy it.) What owning a copy of Aaron Carter’s debut album says about me is not worth thinking about. Yikes.

Being reminded of all those decisions is kind of melancholy. But the strangest thing about packing up my CDs is wondering whether I’ll ever see them again. There was a time in my life when they were organized on shelves in alphabetical order and in categories. Now they’re housed in cardboard. It’s quite the fall from grace. Packing them away is an oddly melancholy experience. But they served me well. Doubtless they’ll be packed away for some time yet. Maybe they can hang out with my cassettes and exchange musical war stories. I get the feeling that my CDs and cassettes would have a lot in common.

Sharks get their bite back DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn SORRENTO have scored their first win for the season after an epic matchup against Pines.

The Sharks made the long road trip to Eric Bell Reserve to take on the Pythons on Saturday. Pines got off to a good start early and took a lead into the first break. The Sharks didn’t let the Pythons get too far ahead though, and had drawn level by three-quarter-time.

Nine goals were kicked in a pulsating final term. Sorrento managed to get themselves five points in front, and held on for a hard-fought win 12.12 (84) to 13.11 (89).

Shannon Gladman was best afield for the Sharks, kicking four goals.

The win puts Sorrento back on the right path after a horror performance against Rosebud in round one.

The clash was a rematch of the epic 2018 Grand Final, in which Pines won with a point scored after the siren.

Mt Eliza and Frankston YCW shared the points on Saturday in an enthralling draw.

The Redlegs were getting the better of the Stonecats throughout the first half, and took a 22 point lead into the main break.

Frankston YCW wrestled back momentum in the second half. The lead was closed to eight points by threequarter-time.

The Stonecats got close to completing the fightback, but just fell short.

The siren blew with both sides equal on 86 points.

Matthew Troutbeck booted five goals in a best on ground performance for the Stonecats.

Rosebud's good start to 2021 continued with a win over reigning premiers Dromana at home.

Rosebud were the better team throughout the afternoon. They defeated the Tigers 13.15 (93) to 9.11 (65).

Nicholas Batsanis and Greg Bentley

were big contributors for the winning outfit, scoring four goals each.

A six-goal haul from Trent DennisLane helped Bonbeach secure a 28 point win over Red Hill.

Jonathon Ross can hold his head high after contributing six goals to the losing side’s final total.

At Regents Park, Frankston Bombers comfortably defeated EdithvaleAspendale 8.12 (60) to 18.10 (118).

Corey Buchan played another blinder, scoring seven goals.

Kangaroos and Demons continue undefeated starts DIVISION TWO

By Brodie Cowburn LANGWARRIN have gone 3-0 to start the 2021 season.

The Kangaroos took on Karingal at Ballam Park Reserve on Saturday. Both sides wrestled for control throughout the day in a scrappy affair.

Karingal went into half-time with a one point advantage. By three-quartertime, Langwarrin had put themselves three points ahead.

Both sides only managed to put one goal each on the scoreboard in the final quarter. Langwarrin held on to win 8.4 (52) to 7.16 (58).

Blake Peach and Zach Andrewartha were Langwarrin’s best.

Rye also scored a third consecutive win to start their season. They took the points from Somerville.

With just one point separating them at the final break, the contest looked set to go down to the wire. Rye managed to overrun them in the final quarter though, piling on six goals to wrap up an 11.10 (76) to 15.6 (96) win.

Oscar Whitty was named the Demons’ best. He scored two goals on the day.

A six goal show from Jackson Calder got Mornington over the line against Hastings. The Blues took slim leads into the first two breaks, but the Bulldogs were able to draw level by threequarter-time.

The Bulldogs had the legs to overpower Hastings in the final term, going on to claim an 8.10 (58) to 10.11 (71) win.

Calder’s six-goal haul takes his total for the year to 18 from just three games.

Pearcedale got the better of Chelsea in a close contest on Saturday.

The two sides went into the final term with just a point the difference between them. Pearcedale were the better side in the last quarter and eventually secured a 16 point win.

Mornington, Pines still top dogs SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie MORNINGTON recovered from a 3-1 deficit to beat Mazenod 5-3 at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday and retain top billing in State 1 SouthEast.

Mazenod’s Navin Vellupilay opened the scoring with a header from a corner in the 16th minute but 10 minutes later Milos Lujic equalised after holding off his marker then turning and striking the ball into the bottom lefthand corner of the net.

A Dominic D’Angelo penalty put the visitors 2-1 up and the impressive Luke Gallo capitalised on a defensive error to make it 3-1 after 41 minutes.

A minute later big Josh Heaton powered home a header from a Luke Goulding corner to make it 3-2 and when Josh Hine’s cross-come-shot in the 55th minute confused everyone it was 3-3.

A powerful left-foot strike from Lujic in the 73rd minute put the league leader in front and substitute Campbell Steedman finished off the game in style by thundering in a header from 15 metres in the 84th minute.

In NPL2 Langwarrin suffered its first loss of the season going down 3-1 to Werribee City at Lawton Park on Saturday.

The visitors led 1-0 at half-time through Nemanja Spasojevic who robbed Marcus Holmes and finished well past advancing Langy keeper Fraser Maclaren.

Another defensive blunder in the 54th minute and quick ball movement ended with a Rafael Tresca tap-in and three minutes later Bilal Habib reacted quickest against a static Langy defence to put the result beyond doubt.

A superb finish low into the far corner from the left of the area by Tom Youngs in the 90th minute was little consolation for the home side.

In State 2 Skye United hammered visitors Monbulk Rangers 5-0 on Saturday and climbed to second in the league table.

Skye opened its account in the 37th minute after an Alex Rojas ball across the face of goal was knocked in by the incoming Mark O’Connor and right on half-time a superb Jason Nowakowski cross to the back post was headed home by Marcus Collier.

Two minutes into the second half it was game over thanks to an excellent

finish from Travis Ernsdoerfer.

A Caleb Nicholes header and a strike from substitute Dean Piemonte sealed Monbulk’s fate.

On Sunday Peninsula Strikers lost 3-2 to North Caulfield at Centenary Park.

Strikers midfielder Danny Brooks was sent off for violent conduct after just seven minutes but three minutes later Ben Doree was shoved to the ground inside the area and Aaran Currie converted from the spot.

Strikers looked in control even with 10 men but Josh De Baize gave the visitors a way back into the contest when he tripped North Caulfield captain Daniel Sacks and gave away a penalty in the 27th minute.

Gideon Sweet sent Strikers keeper Robbie Acs the wrong way and it was 1-1.

Five minutes into the second period Akiva Pilcer was sent clear on the right of the area and his low shot across Acs made it 2-1.

North Caulfield went further ahead in the 72nd minute when Pilcer put Sweet through on the left and Acs wasn’t given a chance to react as Sweet hammered the ball past him from close range.

In the 80th minute Strikers substitute Jai Power got clear on the right and his low strike went under the div-

ing body of North Caulfield keeper Famara Djiba.

There was controversy over a couple of refereeing decisions in the final minutes of the match but the visitors were able to hang on much to the chagrin of a vocal local support.

In State 3 there appears to be no stopping the juggernaut that is league leader Frankston Pines as Whitehorse United can verify after Pines thumped the visitors 5-0 on Friday night.

Pines played with 10 men after Jordon “Caka” Avraham received a second yellow card and was sent off in the 40th minute but by then Pines were 3-0 up.

Alex Roberts opened the scoring in the 15th minute after a sweeping move down the left saw the ball switched inside and laid off by Savenaca Baledrokadroka to Roberts whose firm low shot beat Whitehorse keeper Michael van Eijk.

Roberts struck again with a firsttime shot at the back post after a superb Hamraz Zenoozi run down the left then Avraham’s free kick on the left in the 37th minute eluded everyone and left van Eijk flat-footed.

Christian Malgioglio broke clear in the 83rd minute and neatly finished well in a one-on-one with van Eijk then turned provider in the 90th minute when he pounced on a poor ball

out from the back and set up Max Boulton who scored from close range.

In State 4 Seaford United remained at the head of the ladder with a 5-1 drubbing of Dingley Stars at North Seaford Reserve on Saturday.

Harry McCartney reports that the day belonged to star Seaford striker Dylan Waugh whose four first-half goals ended the contest.

Taylan Yildirim reduced the deficit in the 75th minute but three minutes later Mitch Hawkins finished a fine solo effort when he hit the mark from just inside the box.

While Waugh was increasing his lead as the league’s top scorer Baxter was staging a remarkable recovery against Endeavour United at Reema Reserve.

Baxter was staring at a 3-1 deficit at half-time with only a Luke Grant penalty to show for its efforts and when Matty Durand grabbed his second goal in the 58th minute there seemed no way back for George Hughes’ side.

A second Luke Grant penalty in the 62nd minute made it 4-2 and Ben Meiklem was put through two minutes later and made it 4-3.

Jack Buttery made it 4-4 in the 79th minute after beating an opponent on the left of the area then placing his shot into the top far corner.

New Baxter recruit Charlie Parker

made his debut off the bench and the ex-Mornington player is expected to have a major impact on his new club’s fortunes this season.

Chelsea had to settle for a point at home after drawing 1-1 with Keysborough on Friday night.

Carlo Melino’s men controlled long periods of play but struggled to score.

Chelsea conceded a late goal after failing to clear a free-kick but Piers Brelsford equalised with a low strike from the edge of the area in the last minute.

Somerville Eagles lost 3-1 to Springvale City at Ross Reserve last weekend despite player-coach Dave Greening putting the Eagles 1-0 up after six minutes.

In State 5 Aspendale Stingrays downed Endeavour Hills 4-2 at Power Reserve on Saturday.

It was 1-1 at half-time with Hayden Nuhanovic scoring for Aspendale.

A Kenan Nuhanovic double and a Ben Garside volley put Aspendale 4-1 up in the second period before a Domenic Dimanche goal for Endeavour Hills in the 78th minute rounded off the scoreline.

By then the contest was over with the home team paying for an undisciplined display which saw three players sent off in the second half.

Rosebud lost 3-1 away to Mentone while Mount Martha lost 7-0 away to Hampton Park United.

Here are this weekend’s round 5 fixtures: SATURDAY, 3pm: Langwarrin v Moreland City (Lawton Park), Bentleigh Utd Cobras v Mornington (Victory Park), Mooroolbark v Skye Utd (Esther Park), Rowville Eagles v Frankston Pines (Park Ridge Reserve), Seaford Utd v Dandenong South (North Seaford Reserve), Somerville Eagles v Dingley Stars (Tyabb Central Reserve), Keysborough v Baxter (Coomoora Reserve), Noble Park Utd v Chelsea (Parkfield Reserve), Mount Martha v Mentone (Civic Reserve), Aspendale Stingrays v White Star Dandenong (Jack Grut Reserve), Endeavour Hills v Rosebud (Power Reserve).

Kah finds the key to La Mexicana’s best HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou PREMIERSHIP leading jockey Jamie Kah continued her emphatic record with the Anthony and Sam Freedmantrained La Mexicana at Caulfield on Saturday 17 April.

Combining for the eighth time in the I Am invincible filly’s career, Kah once again managed to get the best out of La Mexicana to win the $150,000 VOBIS Gold Dash and bring up the filly’s sixth win with Kah onboard.

Returning from a seven-week letup after a failed Sydney trip for the Group One Surround Stakes (1400m), La Mexicana was right back to her best at Caulfield with the VOBIS riches up for grabs.

Jockey Jamie Kah positioned La Mexicana right behind the speed before peeling out rounding the home bend. The consistent filly was full of running in the sprint home and held a comfortable one-length margin over

her rivals on the line.

Pinecliff, Mount Eliza-based co-trainer Anthony Freedman was pleased to see the talented filly return to form.

“Sydney just didn’t work for her but she’s quite a quirky mare and the travel and the different environment just didn’t suit her so we brought her straight home and got her back into her normal routine,” Freedman said post-race. “[Jamie] has won nearly every time on her. The mare loves her and I think they get each other. We’ve just got to try and get her to stay on her now for the race in Adelaide.”

Freedman said the plan has always been to target the Group One Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m) in Adelaide with the reliable filly – a race that the Freedman’s had most recently won in 2018 with Shoals.

“She’s won over 1200m in the past.

If we were to get some wet weather

that’d help but I think the fact that she’s reliable it’ll just be a case of how she handles the trip,” Freedman said.

“Being a three-year-old fillies race, she’ll come down in weight but she’s probably going to have to lift off today because it’ll be a very good race.”

Successful combo: Jamie Kah wins her sixth race aboard the Anthony and Sam Freedman-trained La Mexicana.
