Ballarat co-trainer Calvin McEvoy was delighted a two-year plan was able to be landed with the well-supported favourite in the BM70 handicap (2350m).
"So exciting. We've only got three runners for the week. It's a really tough place to have a winner," McEvoy said.
"Good on the ownership crew, there's a big crew of them.
"When they bought into this horse, they said we want it to run at Warrnambool. That was two-and-a-half years ago. So we got the job done.
"He's a progressive young stayer. He's still working it out. We were really keen to get up to this trip and think he'll go a bit further.
"We'll see if there's another mile and a half in town. It's exciting."
