Barnes-storming

By Len Baker

Parwan co-trainers David and Brad Barnes were successful at Tabcorp Park Melton last Saturday night, with lightly raced 4Y0 Rock N Roll Heaven-Indi Rose gelding Rocknroll Walla, in the 2240 metre Allied Express Pace.

Driven by globetrotting reinsman superstar Greg Sugars, Rocknroll Walla led out from gate two before being eased to trail Captain Maastricht (gate five). After enjoying the run of the race, Rocknroll Wall dashed away along the sprint lane to register an easy 8.3 metre margin over Captain Maastricht, with A Rocknroll Jet (three pegs) also using the sprint lane for third 1.1 metres back.

The mile rate 1-58.8.
