Woman crushed to death at workplace Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A WOMAN has died after an incident at a Dingley Village workplace last week. The 34-year-old was crushed to

death inside a shipping container while unloading marble slabs, a WorkSafe statement read. The worker died on Thursday, 30 April. Director of RHF Stone in Dingley Village, Baki Bas, put out a statement on social media reading “on behalf of

RHF Stone Management team, we are extremely sorry to inform you about the loss of one of our (...) professional and loyal team members who put her work first and sadly lost her life at work due to her dedication and perseverance.” “Sadly she was a member of the

family and we are extremely devastated and heart broken by her death,” Mr Bas said. “Unfortunately this incident was unprecedented and in over 12 years of our trading we have had absolutely no workplace incidents at all. We have had all safety measures in place and

we will ensure to avoid such incidents in the future.” The statement read that RHF Stone will continue to trade “as normal”. WorkSafe is investigating the death. There have been 22 workplace fatalities in 2020.

A MOBILE coronavirus testing site has opened at Bayside Shopping Centre in Frankston. The site is one of 10 new mobile sites that opened statewide last week. Fountain Gate in Narre Warren South and Chadstone Shopping Centre are also hosting COVID-19 test sites. The testing sites are manned by doctors, nurses, and pathology collection

staff. Victoria’s Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton said “this is about taking the testing to where people are out in the community.” “The more people we test the more we’ll know about the spread of the virus, which will help guide any decisions about potentially easing restrictions,” he said. People who visit the sites will need to bring a Medicare card or at least one other form of identification. The state government hopes to test

100,000 people for COVID-19 in the next two weeks. Health minister Jenny Mikakos said “this massive testing blitz will give us the best information about how this virus is spreading in the community, and I encourage anyone with even the mildest of symptoms to help us out and go get themselves tested.” “These new mobile testing sites are located at shopping centres around Melbourne to make it as easy as possible for people to get tested, and there will be more coming online across the state.”

Teachers parade through streets

EDITHVALE Primary School students had the opportunity to thank their teachers this week for their hard work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers from the school paraded through Edithvale on 4 May as students and parents watched on and waved. Edithvale Primary School parent Michael Cummings said “it was just so cool to see the kids’ faces light up as their teachers and other school staff came past.” “The school has done an amazing job with Physiotherapist, David Ternes. Yanni just superb, but its distance learningPicture: program,

there’s no substitute for face to face contact,” he said. “It was also great for the parents to get out and see each other again. Educating our kids from home has been really rewarding in lots of ways, but it also comes with its own challenges and frustrations. “Edithvale Primary is a very special school community, and seeing all the kids and parents out there saying thanks to their teachers was just another reminder of that.”

The only government girls’ secondary school in the south-eastern suburbs

Police patrol

with Brodie Cowburn

Guard hit and employee spat on A THEFT and assault in Oakleigh South are being investigated. Just after 3pm, 29 March, two men entered a shop on Centre Road. They were approached by security guards after they were allegedly spotted putting spray paint cans inside their clothing. The two men attempted to run away but were caught outside the door by security. While attempting to get the details of the two men, one of the guards was allegedly punched in the head, while the other was chased into the store. Inside the store, the two men allegedly began throwing stock around, and spat in the eye of an employee. The two alleged offenders left the store in a vehicle. A 31-year-old St Kilda man has been arrested and charged, but a second man is yet to be arrested. Police describe the outstanding offender as “aged approximately 30-years-old, 183cm tall, slim build, shoulder length brown hair and facial stubble.” An image of a man (right) they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries has been released. Anyone with information about the incident or who may recognise the man is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au

Driver blows over

Medical centre robbed

A WOMAN has allegedly tested positive for drugs and blown over the legal blood alcohol limit while driving in Mordialloc. Police pulled the driver over at around 1.30am, 17 April. The unlicensed driver allegedly returned a breath test reading of .121, and tested positive for cannabis and MDMA. The driver and her passenger were given penalty notices for violating COVID-19 guidelines. The driver will be summonsed to court for nine offences.

POLICE are investigating a burglary from a Cheltenham medical facility in March. Moorabbin Crime investigation Unit detectives believe that a man forced entry into the facility, on Centre Dandenong Road, at around 8pm 22 March. Cash was stolen from the premises. Police have released an image (below) of a man they wish to speak to. They described him as “Caucasian in appearance, aged 25 to 35-years, and wearing a black jumper and lightcoloured tracksuit pants.” Anyone who recognises the man or with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.

Drugs seized FOUR people have been arrested and drugs have been seized after a series of warrants were executed in Cheltenham, Noble Park, Noble Park North, and the CBD. The warrants were executed as part of Operation Empire, a three-month long investigation into the trafficking and manufacturing of the drug methylamphetamine. In the early hours of 29 April, police executed the warrants. At a house on Kylie Street in Cheltenham, a small quantity of amphetamines were seized. Nobody was home at the time and no arrests have been made in relation to that warrant. At the other addresses a 44-year-old man, a 42-year-old man, and a 31-year-old man were arrested. Officers from the Caulfield Divisional Response Unit assisted with the arrests. Detective Senior Sergeant Dean Grande said “police have zero tolerance for drug traffickers and will continue to prevent, detect and disrupt people who bring drugs into the community.” “We want to reassure everyone that police continue to work tirelessly to disrupt organised drug syndicates and reduce the supply of drugs in Victoria.”

Kids in care need help during crisis Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au

THE old club rooms at RF Miles Reserve are being demolished to make way for new facilities. Picture: Supplied

Work begins to bring club home WORKS are underway to revamp the home of Seaford’s football, netball, and cricket clubs. The redevelopment of RF Miles Reserve, projected to cost over $9 million to taxpayers and Frankston ratepayers, kicked off 22 April. The completed project will feature a twostorey pavilion, a larger oval, a new netball court, and new cricket nets. Works on car parking and the addition of oval lighting, a scoreboard,

and a coaches box will also form part of the works. Seaford Football Netball Club president Dale O’Neil said “the club is very excited for the brand new pavilion and oval to be built. To have the availability for netball to train and play from the venue is something we couldn’t imagine happening without the assistance from the council, state, and federal governments.” Women’s team president Sheridan

Howe said “we have seen a growing number of women wanting to play at our destination club. I am looking forward to having female-friendly facilities at our home ground and can’t wait for the redevelopment to be finished.” RF Miles Reserve had been taken over by level crossing removal works, resulting in the Seaford Football Club playing home games at Belvedere Reserve.

THE state government has announced a $77.5 million package to provide support to children in foster or kinship care. Carrum Downs woman Tay, now 21-years-old, lived in kinship care. She said that children in care who turn 18 during the COVID-19 pandemic may find themselves in a difficult situation, and need the extra support. “I found it hard to get the support I needed,” she said about her own experiences of growing up in kinship care. “Mum had passed away already and Nan was doing her best to bring me up, but there was a lot of struggle. I did finish year 12 and I’m glad to have had Nan in my life, as she made a strong person and who I am today.” “At 18 most people are still at school and it would be really hard to move out, impossible [while] trying to finish school or even working and trying to support yourself,” she said. “Young people have really limited options when leaving care and it would be really hard and they are going to struggle. “It is hard enough to find a place to live, let alone during a pandemic. We are currently looking for a home and it is very hard. You have to be shortlisted and then if you get it, only then

are you allowed to go and see it.” The state government has allocated an extra $4 million in funding to their Home Stretch program, which gives kinship and foster carers the option of keeping young adults in their care up to the age of 21 years, supported by an allowance. As part of the state government support package, foster and kinship carers will also receive a one-off $600 payment for every child they care for. Child protection minister Luke Donnellan said “every day, our foster families and kinship carers provide the most amazing support to our children and young people. Now, it’s our turn to support them.” The CREATE Foundation is a body representing children and young people in out-of-home care. CEO Jacqui Reed has called for a six month extension for the transition process for children in care turning 18 during the coronavirus pandemic. “Through our independent consultations with young people we know that over 35 per cent experience homelessness within the first year of transitioning from care, and in this current climate the complexity of the situation leads to additional challenges around accessing housing and basic supports,” Ms Reed said.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Presentation of Military Stars at Frankston Compiled by Cameron McCullough ON Monday (Anzac Night) the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall held a large and enthusiastic audience. The occasion was the presentation of 1914-15 Military Stars to returned soldiers. The management of affairs was carried out by the Frankston Soldiers’ Memorial Committee, with Mr A G Wilcox: (chairman) and Mr H. Vicars (secretary). The first part of the proceedings consisted of a concert contributed solely by Melbourne artists, and the committee is to be complimented on the excellence of the entertainment provided. At the conclusion of the entertainment Brigadier General Grimwade made the presentation of Military Stars. The recipients were: A. E. Verney; 3rd A.S.C. S. J. Marsh, 6th Batt. C. Bunny, 5th Batt. E. Barrett, 14th Batt. S. A. Clarke, 14th Batt. A F. Dood, 3-6 Batt. P. W. Baker. 6th Batt. Alfd. Jolly, 1-8th Batt. Each man as he stepped forward in answer to his name, was greeted with rounds of applause. In addressing the audience General Grimwade said his duty had been a pleasurable one. He explained that many more men in this district were entitled to the 1914 Stars, but the Defence Department had not been able to furnish the Stars in time. All the men who had answered the first call, and those who followed in 1915 would receive the stars in due course.

PAGE 6

Anzac Day, said the speaker, was a suitable day on which to make the presentation. It was a day that won a heritage for the whole of Australia. On Anzac Day thousands of Australians went forward to their death and on that day our sacrifices commenced. After that other Australians by the thousands rallied to the cause until at last 400,000 had enlisted and out of the number 60,000 made the supreme sacrifice. Anzac Day was a day to be commemorated forever and the men who received Stars would be proud to hand them down to their children a fitting emblem of a heritage gloriously won. (Loud applause.) The singing of the National Anthem terminated the proceedings. *** ON Saturday, May 8th, the Malvern Harriers are holding a Marathon race from Frankston to Melbourne, the distance being a little over 26 miles. A start will be made from the Frankston park at 1.30, and the finish is at Wesley cricket ground at St. Kilda Road. One of the entrants is T. Stinton Hewitt, a member of the team being sent by Australia to compete in the Olympic games at Stockholm, in October, and it is understood he will make an attempt to lower the record for the distance. *** ALEX.

parts of the Peninsula, and competition was most keen at prices that gave every satisfaction to the vendor. It was generally admitted to be one of the most successful sales ever held in the district. Stack of hay, about 35 tons, £250; milkers to £12 5s; springers to £17 10s; heifers to £6 10s; aged farm gelding, £21; farm mare £21 10s; 538 new chaff bags, 16s 3d doz.; ewes 20s 6d; wether lambs 17s; ewe lambs 15s 6d; .seed drill £32 4s; reaper and binder £28; D.F. disc plough, £10 15s; harrows £1; S.S. buggy, £27; jinker £17. *** THERE was a large congregation in the Methodist Church on Sunday night, at the special service to commemorate Anzac Day. Rev. C. Angwin preached from the text: “He laid down His life for us.” Reference was made to the bravest and best of Australia’s sons who responded to the call of Empire, laid down their lives for us, died that we might live, and for a world-wide liberty against tyranny: right against might. We admire their devotion and noble spirit of self-sacrifice. We honor their memory; pay them the tribute of gratitude and love. By their magnificent sacrifice, splendid courage, their gallant feat of arms in storming the heights of Gallipoli they made for themselves and Australia, a name that will live in the annals of history. We are laudably proud of the gallant lads who fought our battles and made the supreme sacrifice; also those who, with supreme unselfishness, yielded up their best beloved when their country

needed them. Our deepest sympathy goes out to all who are bearing their grief so nobly, and in so patriotic a manner. Appropriate hymns were sung. *** A MOTOR car capsized near Sorrento on Monday night, Mr Olsen, of the Peninsula Garage, Frankston, who was phoned for, rendered assistance and brought the party on to Frankston. *** THE Wattle Club will entertain soldiers from the. Military Hospitals at lunch and afternoon tea next Sunday. The Frankston brass band will be in attendance. *** A LARGE gathering assembled in the Frankston Park last Sunday to commemorate Anzac Day in the form of a united service and public worship. Rev. Geo. Cox conducted the first part of the service. Major Chaplain Backhouse, who gave an interesting address, spoke feelingly of our fallen Anzacs and praised our brave Australian soldiers. In the course of his delivery he told how our boys never feared danger, and they were always right there when the strife was thickest. The Frankston Brass Band played the hymns with great feeling and was very much appreciated. After the singing of the National Anthem the service terminated with the sounding of the “Last Post”. *** MR T. J. McMurtrie and Mr C. W. Gault, JsP., leave for a fortnight’s holiday next week. The latter will attend the Fruitgrow-

ers’ Conference at Mildura. *** MOST people are agreed that it is time a move was made in the direction of taking definite action to proceed with the building to be erected as a Soldiers’ Memorial in Frankston. The Memorial Committee is anxious to secure plans at once, and it is probable that competitive designs will be invited as soon as the question of site has been settled. The Frankston branch of the Returned Soldiers’ Association has expressed a decided preference for the land in front of the Mechanics’ as the site for the Memorial, and it is strongly supported by the Memorial Committee, which is largely composed of citizens representing vested interest. It was with the object of securing finality on the site question that the Memorial Committee met shire councillors on the ground last week and made a thorough inspection of the land referred to. The municipal representatives present were Crs. Oates, Mason, Wells, and Armstrong, Mr A. K. T. Sambell, C.E. (Shire .Engineer), and Mr John E. Jones (Shire Secretary). Mr A. G. Wilcox (President of the Frankston branch of the Returned Soldiers’ Association, and also chairman of the Memorial Committee), explained the position from the view of the Memorial Committee, and gave the impression that the site asked for and no other would give satisfaction. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 30 April 1920

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Apocalypse Diaries Part 2 – Rage Against the Lack of Rage By Stuart McCullough THERE are limits. I can take plenty of punishment but certain things are simply beyond the pale which, given my pallid Irish complexion, is really saying something. Confine me to barracks for months on end and you won’t hear a peep from me. Bulk-buy all the toilet paper known to humanity before trying to resell it on Gumtree for the kind of price that’d make a bootlegger blush and I’ll keep my unpleasant thoughts to myself. Denude the meat aisle until the only thing left is spatchcock and I’ll accept it in good grace. But woe betide the person who took it upon themselves to cancel Saturday morning Rage. That’s a step too far. Did I miss a meeting or did Satan win an election by promising to suck all the fun out of life? Surely there was, at the very least, some kind of memo before taking so drastic an action as to cancel Saturday morning Rage. Survey Monkey? Show of hands? Non-binding plebiscite? In the name of all that is sacred, they couldn’t simply call it off without some kind of procedural fairness. Times are tough enough as they are. It’s simply the wrong moment to take music videos away from a listless, housebound public. For those unfamiliar with it, Rage on ABC television is something of an institution. A low security prison, most probably. Because once you start watching it, it’s very difficult to get away, as you constantly kid yourself that the video you’re currently enduring will be replaced by something much better in a few short minutes. Rage starts and finishes at an ungodly hour on Saturday night. As a result, I

hardly ever get to see it. That’s why Saturday morning Rage is so vitally important. To this day, whether or not Rage has begun on a Saturday night tells me whether I’m up late. More than that, it shows that we’re yet to succumb to suburban malaise and have maintained our edge. If we get home from a night out (remember those?) and Rage has started, it’s definitive proof that we’re still young, wild, cool and carefree. (In your beautifully manicured face, hipsters!) That we then proceed to celebrate this with a Milo is beside the point – we made it to Rage! However, the older I get, the less frequently this occurs. It’s got to the point where Sat-

urday night Rage is almost unthinkable. Saturday morning may well be the last remnant of my youth. I won’t let it be taken away without a fight or, at the very least, a sternly worded email. Incidentally, one of the great things about Rage is that it’s often bookended by programs that are completely incongruous. They don’t ‘warm up’ to Rage – they prefer to plunge straight in, much like a skinny dipper diving into an Antarctic sea. Often, it’s preceded by a selection of Parliamentary highlights and anything else they can find to pad out the hour on ‘Order in the House’. As a result, you might go from watching a debate on economic sanctions to the latest

offering from Cannibal Corpse before realizing that one show has ended and another started. Probably. Rage is often followed by something equally jarring, like Songs of Praise, although this can sometimes seem like a natural progression. What the world needs now is music videos. Lots of them. I’m talking videos from the seventies, when they looked like dodgy home movies through to the eighties when production values were insanely high even if the song was ten types of rubbish. (Music videos in the 1980s were often indefensible. It was as if the music industry was engaged in some kind of money burning competition with the

prize going to whoever managed to incinerate the biggest pile of cash for no reward.) Then on to the nineties when rock stars decried corporate consumerism by dressing like tramps, while making their disgust clear in t-shirt form and through slick promotional videos that helped shift as many units as possible. I can only say that the nineties were a confusing time for everyone. And then to the present day, when the whole industry has been gutted since people have stopped buying music and videos are now shot on a iPhone. What’s not to love? Saturday morning Rage was a place I could be nostalgic as guest presenters selected videos that I, too, would have chosen if the ABC had ever deemed me worthy of sitting on their red couch. It was also a place where I could keep in touch, maintaining whatever tenuous grasp I still have on what passes for popular culture. Try as I might, it’s something I simply can’t get from Weekend Breakfast, no matter how polite the presenters. Sorry. Saturday morning Rage was one of the things that would prove, beyond doubt, that it really was Saturday. Now that it’s been replaced by a generic news show, the line between weekend and weekday has all but been obliterated. That this generic news show appears on three channels simultaneously feels…wasteful. Rock and roll ain’t noise pollution. It is a useful tool when trying to wake up at the end of a working week. Come back, Saturday morning Rage! A country in lock down needs you. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

June restart looms, Hine hurt SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie FOOTBALL Victoria hopes to get the green light to announce a resumption of training this month with the aim of starting the league season in June. In April Football Federation Australia extended the suspension of all soccer activities until 31 May but that looks likely to be lifted. Last week Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that national cabinet had endorsed the “National Principles for Resumption of Sport and Recreation Activities” developed by the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee and the “Framework for Rebooting Sport in a Covid-19 Environment” developed by the Australian Institute of Sport. The AIS document sets out a pathway for a staged return of community and professional sport. This starts with an initial phase of small group (less than 10) activities in a non-contact fashion prior to moving to a phase of large group activities eventually including full contact training and competition. However the document emphasises that all sporting organisations need to be flexible “to accommodate and respond to changes in (coronavirus) community transmission rates and the associated changes in advice from Public Health Authorities.” The document emphasised the importance of player education and agreement to the protocols to be put in place along with illness management. “Preparation for resumption includes education of the athletes and other personnel, assessment of the sport environment and agreement on training scheduling to accommodate social distancing. “The approach to training should focus on ‘get in, train, get out’, minimising unnecessary contact in change rooms, bathrooms and communal areas. “Prior to resumption, sporting organisations should have agreed protocols in place for management of illness in athletes and other personnel.” FV arranged a members’ meeting on Tuesday last week involving zone representatives and standing committee chairpersons and now awaits the outcome of a national cabinet meeting scheduled for Friday this week and an

expected announcement by state government on 11 May. There are indications that some of the current stage 3 restrictions in Victoria will be eased leading to the possibility of community sport resuming with new social distancing restrictions in place. Should that happen then FV could allow senior NPL and community clubs to start senior training on 16 or 17 May with matches commencing in a staggered fashion from 12 June to 3 July. Cup competitions could start from 6 June with Langwarrin, Mornington and Seaford United the only local clubs remaining in the FFA Cup. FV’s members meeting raised the prospect of junior training commencing between 12 and 15 May with matches starting from 6 June. Notes of the members’ meeting circulated to clubs stated that there is more certainty around junior competitions “since changerooms are rarely required” and the new restrictions could include a directive that changerooms are not to be used. The meeting also speculated about a cap on training numbers and the duration of sessions. Part of last week’s discussion centred on FV’s relationship with govern-

dor for the southern and south-east regions, linked up with Mornington, Mount Martha, Mount Eliza and Rosebud Heart last Wednesday evening for a teleconference where clubs shared their recent experiences and discussed a range of issues. Hurvitz is believed to be organising a similar hook-up involving Frankston council clubs this week. Meanwhile Mornington will be hoping for a later start to the season after star Seagulls striker Josh Hine suffered a dislocated elbow and minor fractures in a road accident early last week. Hine was cycling as part of his preseason program when struck by a car and taken by passers-by to Sandringham Hospital for treatment. “We’re waiting on specialist’s advice to find out how bad the dislocation and the fractures around it are,” Mornington head coach Adam Jamieson said. “If we start in late June he’d be touch and go but I think he’d be pretty close to being ready if we started around mid-July.” Application software has played an important part in Mornington staying connected to players and coaching staff via messaging services and social-fitness apps and Jamieson linked up with other club coaches via Zoom

ment and its role as the sport’s main advocate. Sport and Recreation Victoria has formed a working group and FV is represented by Matthew Green its Senior Executive Manager Business Operations. FV CEO Peter Filopoulos is a member of the SRV board. Recommendations from the SRV Working Group regarding protocols for a resumption of sporting activities and possible funding initiatives for community sports will be presented to state cabinet. At last week’s FV members’ meeting the financial situation around FV fees and charges also was discussed with the issue of FV refunds given priority by the state body. A working committee has been established consisting of FV president Kimon Taliadoros, two other board members and FV senior executives to “formulate recommendations around FV refunds for the board to consider.” The meeting notes state: “They (FV) mentioned the importance of striking a balance between helping clubs and their own financial viability.” Meanwhile FV is keen to use its ambassador program to stay in touch with clubs.

last weekend. Players have been given programs to follow and their progress has been monitored so the club has the best possible chance to hit the ground running once competition resumes. Mornington like all local clubs is waiting to find out what restrictions will be put in place to allow training and playing to restart. The Seagulls are keen to know how these restrictions will be policed and what would happen if, for example, one of their players tested positive to corona virus. For example, Jamieson doubles as coach of the club’s JNPL under-13s and also attends committee meetings when requested so the knock-on effects should one of his players test positive would be far-reaching if strict quarantine rules are in place. NPL2 outfit Langwarrin has dealt with monitoring fitness levels among its senior players through a program developed by high performance manager Alistair Wallace. “I set them a program from a PDF I created with three different training sessions with different training outcomes, for example aerobic, highspeed exposure and acceleration plus change of direction,” Wallace said. Each player fills out a form after each session and the data is used to monitor their progress. “We did this for all of pre-season to track load so pretty much when we come back we know how much we can increase each player’s load without them getting injured. “Most players send me screenshots of their sessions using an app or a smart watch.” If as expected there is an abbreviated training period before matches start Wallace feels Langy is well-positioned to cope. “Looking at it they say we will have four weeks back training before we play. “We can do a lot in four weeks but we will just have to be very vigilant with some players and adjust training loads independently for each player. “It isn’t ideal but we just have to adapt and keep risk levels low for players. “Most players have been doing the training loads so we are happy with where we are right now.”

Cartwright makes winning city debut HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON-based apprentice jockey Matthew Cartwright kicked off his metropolitan debut in sensational form with a winner from his very first city ride on Wednesday 29 April. Having ridden 32 winners to date in the country, Cartwright was offered the ride aboard the John McArdle-trained Mockery at Sandown and made the most of his opportunity in town. Cartwright, who had already formed a good association with the threeyear-old filly having previously ridden her for a win and a second at her last two starts, took up the running in the 1000m sprint and never looked back. The 17-year-old apprentice ran the field along in the wet conditions before pushing clear in the final 100m to score a two-and-three-quarter length victory in the third race of the day. Cartwright said it was a surreal feeling to kick home a city winner at his first ride in town. “It was pretty special when I got off it,” Cartwright said. “Going across the line actually, you could just see my smile light up, so I was thrilled.” Cartwright had some confidence heading into the race too having jumped off his mother’s (Leonie Proctor) and grandmother’s (Lyn Tolson) horse Miss Starway who was also entered in the race. “I hadn’t ridden in town, but John offered me to ride (Mockery) if I’d like because I have a good association

with the owners. I said, ‘yes, I’ll take it’ but Mum also offered me the ride on Miss Starway a couple days earlier. I told her I’d rather take Mockery, so I ended up getting on her and the rest is history,” Cartwright said. “I knew I had a real live chance and I can’t thank John and the owners enough for giving me the opportunity. It all paid off well and the horse did what it did and won well.” Cartwright almost backed up his first winner with another one later in the day when piloting the Jerome Hunter-trained Our Gladiator in the final event on the card. Similar to his first ride, Cartwright took up the running aboard Our Gladiator in the 1000m sprint before giving a kick in the straight. He was only claimed in the final 50 metres by the race-favourite, Sagarra, and eventually finished the race in second place.
