The day featured the three cup races - the Brian Dorman Memorial, Robbie Saunders Memorial and Bernard Curtin Tribute - as well as a Maiden Plate and Maiden Handicap races.
Wangaratta trainer Andrew Dale, who is no stranger to Southern Riverina racecourses, was the most successful trainer of the day.
He scored a double, winning both the Maiden Plate and Robbie Saunders Memorial.
Dale denied victories to Berrigan trainers Paul McVicar and Shilleagh Meyervale, who also received placings on Saturday.
Last weekend’s meeting saw the sun out and a firm track for racing.
In the first race, a 1100m Maiden, the Dale trained mare Loveofmylife took the honours scoring the tightest win of the day by less then half a length to Megaflash. Flemington based trainer Saab Hasan saddled up third placed Prosperous Star.
Race two was the Brian Dorman Memorial Benchmark 1100m 50 Handicap.
Benalla trained Legendary Diva scored by a comfortable 3½ length win.
Dale’s horses, Vonk and Chairman’s Choice rounded out the placings respectively.
Race three was a 1400m Maiden, taken out by another Wangaratta galloper, Not The Chops, scoring his first win in seven starts.
The four year-old gelding, ridden by Bailey Kinninmont and trained at Wangaratta by Damian McCarthy, scored by more than five lengths from the Erin Maher trained Rub Of The Green.
Berrigan trainer Paul McVicar got a third placing with Lady Emilia.
In race four - the Robbie Saunders Memorial 1400m Benchmark 50 Handicap - nine year-old gelding Rushford got a win.
The Dale trained galloper, ridden by Kinninmont, enjoyed the firm surface and scored by two lengths to Gargantuan, with John Rattle’s Smashing Ruby close up in third place.
The final event, was the Bernard Curtin Tribute, a 1600m Benchmark 50 Handicap taken out by the Wodonga trained Grey Lad.
The Craig Widdison gelding scored by 2½ lengths over Berrigan trainer Shilleagh Meyervale’s Blazing Zone, with Tallingas Prince in third place.
