Begood Toya Mother, with Daniel Moor in the saddle, was headed by Chaillot in the shadows of the post in the listed race over 1300 metres.

Bowman said it was great to see his former star galloper, who registered his last win in the 2019 group one Rupert Clarke Stakes, was back in form.

"I thought he might have hung on but Chaillot just napped him on the line," Bowman said.

"There's no disgrace just getting beaten by her. It's good to see Begood Toya Mother is racing back into form. We've put a lot of time, effort and work into getting him right again.

"He hadn't won a race since his victory in the 2019 Clarke Stakes, but he's been unlucky in a few races since that win. Daniel gave a good report after the race.

"He said Begood Toya Mother may have got the stitch in the last 50 metres. The horse will be better with that outing under his belt. We'll push on with Begood Toya into a few nice races over the spring carnival."

Begood Toya Mother's stablemate Fortunate Kiss had no luck in the Moloney Stakes.

"Fortunate Kiss ran up a couple of bums at vital stages of the race," Bowman said.

"We've just got to forget she ran around. She's a very good filly. She should win her fair share of races in fillies and then mares class in the future."

Fortunate Kiss has won one of her four starts. She has two minor placings to her credit.

AUSTRALIAN Thoroughbred Bloodstock and Warrnambool trainer Patrick Ryan have turned into a formidable combination, but with a bit of luck results may have been even better.

Over the last 14 months, Ryan has trained seven winners and 25 placegetters for ATB with numerous placegetters beaten by small margins.

Ryan, who has five horses in work, kept up his record for the syndicators with Black Mission and Madam Mischief winning at Horsham last week.

"I've had a great run with horses from ATB," the Warrnambool Cup-winning trainer said.

"We've had the seven winners, but with an ounce of luck the number may have been about 10 or 11 winners. We've been beaten in a few photo-finishes, but that's racing. Black Mission will go around at Moonee Valley this Friday night while Madam Mischief has her next run at Murtoa on Saturday."

Meanwhile, Ryan's handy mare Wanalirri will resume within the next week or fortnight.

"Wanalirri is in good shape," he said.

"We're really happy how well she's came back into work. She's thickened right up and is a lot more mature. She should have a start within the next 10 days or so. We'll try and win a listed or black type race over the spring carnival in this campaign. A win at that level will really help her breeding credentials."

Wanalirri has won one of her nine starts - that victory was at Caulfield in December last year.

JUMPS jockey Martin Kelly has reapplied for this riders' license after serving a 20-month disqualification for betting offences.

Kelly, the 2018 Tommy Corrigan Medal winner, has resumed riding trackwork for master jumps trainer Eric Musgrove.

The Tommy Corrigan Medal is awarded to the leading jumps jockey in Victoria and South Australia, with votes nominated by the stewards.

NINE-year-old Mount Gambier-trained mare Zabextra came from well back in the field to win a qualifying race for the Jericho Cup at Naracoorte on Sunday.

Zabextra is trained by the Mount Gambier father-son training combination of Bob and Kane Post.

This year's Jericho Cup final will be run over 4600 metres at Warrnambool on November 28.

IMPORTED galloper Kings Full may be set for the $60,000 Hamilton Cup on October 9, after running second in a restricted race at Mornington on Sunday.

Kings Full, trained by Warrnambool mentor Aaron Purcell, finished second behind Rudimental in Sunday's race over 2400 metres.

Purcell said Kings Full was a tough honest performer who is ready to win again.

"It was a nice run by Kings Full," he said. "We'll look at a race like the Hamilton Cup for this next outing.

"We picked up Kings Full for $20,000 at an online sale. We thought he was well priced. It's just taken us a bit of time to work Kings Full out. He's got a funny nature.

"Let's just say he's not the easiest horse to train, but he's getting better with a bit of time."

THREE jockeys were outed following riding indiscretions at Coleraine on Sunday.

Mikaela Lawrence was suspended for not allowing Costa Maya to run out to the finishing line, while Kyle Hocking felt the wrath of the stewards for using the whip on too many occasions.

Anthony Darmanin was outed on a careless riding charge. Lawrence's suspension starts at midnight on October 1 and ends October 8.

Hocking, who was also fined $400, will be suspended from September 24 to October 1.

Darmanin copped a 10-meeting suspension which starts September 24 and ends October 3.

BLUEBERRY BOY: Looked the unlucky runner in a restricted race on Sunday. He's been lightly raced and is ready to win again after that performance.

PRIX DE TURN: Huge run at his debut at Sandown. He came from well back before finishing the 1400-metre race strongly. Prix De Turn should be hard to beat in maiden company next time.

ZOUZARELLA: Well backed before running second in the Moloney Stakes on Saturday. She lost no admirers with that effort. Look for her next time in similar company.

THOUGHT OF THAT: Strong performance to score back-to-back wins on Saturday. Top ride by talented apprentice jockey Josh Richards to lead all the way in the 1800-metre race. More wins are in store for the five-year-old.

BEN PRICE: Talented apprentice who booted home four winners on Saturday. Price is going through his grades in Adelaide, and with a bit of luck he'll be based in Victorian riding against his brother Will.
