Tim Tullenew finished with the impressive figures of +four in Saturdays par event.
After a one over par score on the front nine he was +five at the drinks break.
Earlier in his second nine he reached +six then a surprise turn around he had four washouts to give the fast finishing Tim Lewis a sniff of a chance to catch him.
Tim had a +three with plenty of putts lipping out of the cup.
Next best with +two was Nate Matheson, a good effort by a good effort by Nate as he washed out on the six par threes.
His uncle Bob (Condo) was a pin winner along with Tim and second Steve Peterson.
Sunday was the first of the Summer AM point score. Ali Morriss and Mark Keigheran with 31.5 nett were the days best.
A very nervous Ali sent her tee shot backwards on the first. Impossible to do but many have done it.
Anyway she got her mandatory four drives away and won the day with a lot of help from Mark.
Runners were Neil Buggy (Maitland) and little brother David with 31.75 nett.
Once again putting decided the result. Pat won a pin and Mr Buggy won over the Cowal a 100 percent improvement over his last effort which from memory was an air-swing.
Ali had a good week, she won the Wednesday nine holes with 20 points, Mim Pateman and Jenny Holmes back a bit on 17pts and Dolly Ryan took the pin.
Winners of week two in twilight were 'Stanton Building' 49 points for them.
Stroke event for Saturday and the AM Ambrose Sunday.
Racing
To freshen up from the constant wear and tear of racetrack competition, Greg Ryan intended to miss the Dubbo meeting on Sunday however there was unfinished business on the agenda for the champion jockey. Ryan decided to accept one ride only, that being the seven year old gelding Caszar for Forbes trainer Barry Molloy in the 1400 metres Total Diesel Repairs Benchmark 66 Handicap.
As the rider of Caszar at the last two starts, Ryan had been impressed with the strong finishing runs from the back of the field when second to General Scarlet in the Dandy Cup at Narromine and then third to Smart Moove and Lulu's Destiny at Dubbo.
Allowed to settle off the pace at Dubbo on Sunday, Caszar ( $3.10 ) swept to the lead over the closing stages to win by a length and a half from Lulu's Destiny ( Clayton Gallagher, $2.90 favourite ) and Redirect ( Ken Dunbar, $7 ). Greg Ryan who has now ridden 3,900 winners has great respect for trainer Barry Molloy and this was a major reason for his decision to accept the sole ride at Dubbo.
Now the winner of four races and placed six times from 20 starts, Caszar is trained by Barry Molloy for Bernie Kearins from West Wyalong and the Estate Of John "Sam" Glasgow from Tullibigeal. Dubbo trainer Connie Greig and jockey Rasit Yetimova continued their run of success over recent months when Billy Bent Ear won the 1000 metres Chill Rite Benchmark 66 Handicap in an exciting finish.
A $12 chance, the appropriately named Billy Bent Ear ( yes he does have a bent ear ), after racing in a handy position overhauled the leader Cannizzaro ( Samantha Clenton, $11 ) to score by a half neck with Epic Decision ( Jake Pracey-Holmes, $6.50 ) a half head away third. Meanwhile at Bathurst on Saturday, Dean Mirfin further cemented his position as a leading trainer in the region when he landed a winning double with Saint Ay and Skipper Joe.
Bathurst based Mirfin has only given Saint Ay five starts and it was a good performance by the four year old gelding to outstay the opposition over 2000 metres in the Bathurst Carpet Court Class 1 and Maiden Plate. Well ridden by Jake Pracey-Holmes, Saint Ay ( $2 to 1.65 favourite )took the early lead and after being challenged at the top of the straight raced away to win by over two lengths from Club Town ( Daniel Northey, $10 ) and Mount Taishan ( Billy Cray, $5.50 ).
Skipper Joe ( Jake Pracey-Holmes,$2.60 fav.) also led throughout when winning the On-Trac-Ag Benchmark 58 Handicap ( 1200 metres ) from Gaze Beyond ( Tony Cavallo, $2.90 ) and Hokkaido ( Tiffany Jeffries, $15 ). At the third run back from a spell, the Justin.W.Stanley, Narromine trained Baker's Image regained form to win the 1100 metres Lithgow Furniture and Bedding Class 2 Handicap.
Part owned by Adam Baker and Krysty Baker formerly from Forbes, Baker's Image ( Clayton Gallagher, $13 ) came from back in the field to beat Heza Gentleman ( Quayd Krogh, $3.60 fav.) and Strictly Legit ( Chelsea Ings, $5.50 ). Racing at Orange ( TAB ) on Friday and Cowra on Saturday.
