Oh so close for connections of Oakfield Captain after a spirited effort in race 7 at Newcastle, arriving second under Lee Magorrian to lob a lip behind Moon Dancer for the prize.
Travelling midfield throughout Magorrian went for home, stretching the Testa Rossa Bay out through to the races conclusion to arrive second in the NHP electrical engineering class 2 on a soft 6, indicating a better barrier than 12, may have seen the result altered in favour of the Wyong prepared galloper.
