Peter Kierath awarded OAM By EMILY MIDDLETON PETER Kierath OAM has today received an Order of Australia Medal (OAM), for his service to the community of Narromine. Part of the furniture, Mr Kierath has dedicated his time, service, and passion to the community for as long as the town can remember. Mr Kierath served as an alderman for nearly a decade for Narromine Shire Council, as a councillor for over 10 years, and is a current member of the Narromine Economic Development Committee. He was the initiator of the Narromine multi-purpose hall at the Narromine High School precinct, as well as founder of the airport users’ group. Most notably however, Mr Kierath has been a committee member for the Narromine Aviation Museum since 1998, and has watched the museum be built, evolve, change, and strengthen ever since. His hard work and dedication has aided the museum to its continued success today. “Well, I’ve got to say, it was an ambush,” Mr Kierath laughed, when asked how he felt about his OAM. “It was just something I just never ever expected. I had never thought about it, and then I got that note from the Governor-General – must have been early September I thinksaying I was on the list [to be award on Australia Day 2023]. “I couldn’t read it, I shed a few tears. It just shocked me a bit. The next day I got it out and read it again, and I was still having trouble believing it, because I thought who

I found it very humbling, and it was very emotional for me to be quite truthful.” In his role as chairman [multiple times] of the Narromine Aviation Committee, Mr Kierath has seen many big developments completed. “We’ve done a lot of work in the museum, and I think, given what it started out as, and what it is now, there’s been huge upgrades, and expan-

sions of exhibits and all sorts of things like that, which I think has made it more interesting. “We have another three to four signiﬁcant projects on the cards this year,” Mr Kierath hinted. “When you ﬁ rst start a museum, people don’t want to give you too much of the family memorabilia, because they don’t know where the museum is going, but the longer it goes on and the higher the stand-

ard you put in, the more conﬁdence it gives to people.” But as many Narromine locals know, the museum wasn’t Mr Kierath’s only remarkable project. Sitting on the Narromine hospital board for over two decades, Mr Kierath was the brains behind Timbrebongie House, Narromine’s aged care provider. “When I was on the board, I noticed that there were always three to four people in the hospital beds or rooms that were

old, but weren’t really sick. And some of them had been in there for months and months on end, maybe even years,” said Mr Kierath. “So, they were treating a few of those rooms as an aged care centre. The people weren’t high health, but they weren’t sick. Then I saw that some of them were going to Dubbo, Wellington, Tullamore, Tottenham etc, just for aged care, and I thought dear oh dear we should have one of those here.” After discussion with the committee, it was decided an aged care centre was needed, and plans were underway. Eventually leaving the hospital board, Mr Kierath became a founding chairman of the Timbrebongie House Committee, and got the ball rolling on design plans. “My younger brother put me onto a very good architect in Sydney who specialised in aged care. After approaching the government, we were unsuccessful in obtaining any grants, Narromine wasn’t their priority etc, but we ended up going down to Sydney, and we spoke to the federal health department in Sydney and we got a grant from them, maybe half a million dollars.” Through tireless efforts of fundraising, and a few other grants, Mr Kierath, the newly-employed manager, and the board were able to raise enough money to get Timbrebongie House off the ground. “I think it’s been going hell bent for leather ever since!” he said.

Peter Kierath awarded OAM From page 1 Mr Kierath is also one of the reasons Coles now trades down the main street as well – not many people may know. “After handing the reigns over as chairman for Timbrebongie House, my brother and I had a lot of work to do at the store we owned in town. We did two major extensions there, one on the railway side, and then another on the post office side.” In the late 1970s, Mr Kierath built the old building that was between the store and the post office. Initially just using it as an office, the business partners split up and Mr Kierath decided to pull the old building down and put up a shopping centre. “We owned the shopping centre in 1982, and that was very successful.

Rain, hail, and shine – Narromine family nails third in northern wheat crop comp NARROMINE farming family, the Browning’s, recently won third-place in the prestigious Northern Region’s top wheat crop prize. The Brownings came in third behind the Bristol Farming Partnership of Croppa Creek, and Blake Phillips of Moree in the AgShows NSW competition. Winners were recently announced at the event’s State ﬁ nal in Dubbo with awards presented by local Member and Minister for Agriculture and Western NSW, Dugald Saunders. The awards were particularly noteworthy this year, due to the extreme wet weather causing late sowing, ﬂooded rivers, sodden paddocks, and a late harvest for many growers, as well as access difficulties for judging. David Smith of Croppa Creek topped the northern NSW competition with his 7.0 t/ha and score of 209, ahead of Blake Phillips from Moree in second place (6.9 t/ha 205 pts), and the Browning family of Narromine in third place (6.45 t/ha 197pts). The judging region covers Baradine, Barraba, Bellata,

season, and continued to present hurdles for sponsors Suncorp throughout the judging process. “It was incredibly challenging with the ﬂooding and wet weather and sponsors Suncorp needed to go to each farm in each region individually to inspect the wheat,” AgShows NSW president Peter Gooch said. “With so many roads cut off, sometimes a two-day judging became three days including huge detours of a couple of hundred kilometres and northern judging was pushed back a full week as Narrabri was entirely-ﬂooded,” he added. Suncorp has sponsored the annual wheat competition for more than 10 years, a tradition Ben Graystone, Suncorp district manager for northern NSW, said the company is proud to uphold. “This year, the team really pulled together to get the judges to where they needed to be and when we did get there, some fantastic crops were being judged and there’s still some great crops which is really pleasing to see,” Mr Graystone said.

Pergola to provide welcoming new face for Trangie Golf Club

New pergola to provide a sunny welcome at Trangie Golf Club; State Member for Dubbo, Dugald Saunders with members of the Club committee.

THERE’S nothing more welcoming than an outdoor pergola, with funds for a new facility at Trangie Golf Club designed to welcome new members to the Club. State Member for Dubbo, Dugald Saunders recently announced $90,280 for the Trangie Golf Club Cooperative to boost the Club as a community hub “Player numbers have dropped in recent years, but the team at the ‘golfie’ know it’s more about bringing people together, than the sport itself,” Mr Saunders said. “Whether you’re interested in playing golf or not, we want to encourage people to gather socially, and if they’re being active then that’s even better. “This funding will allow the committee to construct a covered timber deck complete with tables, chairs, fan and downlights, and it will be fully accessible to anyone with mobility issues to get involved in the social and physical benefits of the club.” Trangie Golf Club Cooperative president, Scott MacDougall said there was “a bit of disbelief” when the committee learned it had secured the funding. “We’re only a small club, and that amount of money is probably more than we make in five or 10 years – gross, not profit!” he said. “Our club is more of a social gathering place and we’re trying to utilise the facility a lot more for the community. “It’s really important and I think it will make a huge difference, not only to club members but to the whole district.”

in Narromine or Warren If you’re a good writer with a passion for our local community, please read on. You don’t necessarily need a journalism degree or media experience to join the Narromine Star/ Warren Star teams as one of our new reporters – you do need to enjoy writing, and want to tell the stories of the people and events that make our region tick. (We’ll provide the support and training to help you learn the tricks of the journalism trade.) Ideally, you love living in this region, and being part of the community. You’ll want to be a community leader (if you’re not already) who helps highlight what’s good about the Narromine and Warren shires, and advocate ways to make them even better.

Interested? Email or call Lucie Peart on gm@narrominestar.com.au or 0421 220 388. * It’s important we point out that journalism experience is not essential because we believe some potential candidates might rule themselves out for this reason alone. Rest assured, some of the best reporters we’ve worked with across our small but mighty regional group of independent newspapers have come from different backgrounds – but have been good community people, who write well, and want to play a key role in keeping the people of our region well informed. ** Yes, we’ll soon be launching the Warren Star as a new weekly newspaper.

Macquarie Home Stay secures expansion funding WORRYING about accommodation while being treated for cancer, is one major problem facing country people seeking care for their condition. This issue, however, is now being addressed with recent announcement of funding for a new purpose-built oncology accommodation precinct for the region. Patients across the Central West, Orana, and Western NSW who travel to Dubbo to receive treatment, will soon be able to access affordable accommodation following announcement of the $2.5 million grant. The money will help deliver 26 new rooms by more than doubling the current capacity of Macquarie Home Stay. The oncology accommodation precinct is designed – for those facing once of life’s greatest challenges – to be a home away from home, State Member for Dubbo and Minister for Western NSW, Dugald Saunders explained. “Following the opening of the Western Cancer Centre, Dubbo has become a centre of excellence for healthcare across the entire region,” Mr Saunders said. “We know people will continue to come to Dubbo to receive health treatment, and we’re committed to removing barriers to ensure everyone can get the care they need no matter where they live,” he

added. “One of those barriers has been affordable accommodation, and that’s exactly what this funding will help address,” he said. “ Macquarie Home Stay Managing Director, Rod Crowfoot said that the demand for the affordable accommodation was clear. He pointed-out that the Western Cancer Centre now provides care to people living right across the region, including from Mudgee, Walgett, Bourke, and Cobar. “I’m proud that we’ve been able to support patients, their families and their carers across Central, Western and Far Western NSW during some of the toughest moments of their lives,” he said. “This really does become a ‘home away from home’ as people become repeat visitors during treatment, and often need to stay for extended periods of ﬁve or six weeks. This expansion is going to allow us to support so many more people that are sometimes missing out,” he added. The announcement complements the $149.5 million expansion of the Isolated Patients Travel and Accommodation Assistance Scheme (IPTAAS), announced as part of the 2022–23 NSW Government budget. “With the increased subsidies through IPTAAS and af-

into effect in August last year, more than 6,400 people have accessed the scheme across Central, Western and Far Western NSW saving them hundreds, even thousands of dollars.”

Macquarie Home Stay is a purpose-built accommodation facility for people accessing medical services in Dubbo. Macquarie Home Stay opened in January 2019 with 17 units.

Local creator Nikki’s Hand-axe, artefacts from “Artsong” exhibition Inland Rail returned to to WOW at Warren Indigenous communities NIKKI McCutcheon is one of the regional artists who will be part of the exhibition “Artsong” during March at the Window on the Wetlands Centre (WOW) at Warren. Nikki has been working as an artist for many years, but clay is the one medium that has stayed the test-of-time in her studio, with the farmer/gardener loving the idea of playing and working with the earth. “The coil technique I use is simple, but it is the process that I fi nd most enjoyable,” she explained. “Everything about it is slow. The construction cannot be sped up as the bottom layers of clay need to dry a little to become strong enough to support the top, and the whole piece, when formed, has to dry slowly,” she adds. Patience, she says, is vital to her method. “If the weather is damp it can takes weeks before the sculpture is ready for the kiln. The fi ring takes another full day, and the surface fi nish requires another few days, as coats dry and react. “Even the painterly rust fi nish ages with time. This slowness can often seep into the pieces themselves, as I lean more and more towards capturing moments of stillness and time-less-ness, rather than movement,” she says. Her current creations, she says, are based on the central impor-

LARGE numbers of Aboriginal artefacts found during construction of the Inland Rail link to Narromine, have now been returned to the local Indigenous community. More than 150 stone implements found during construction of the Parkes to Narromine section of the track – including a complete hand-axe and fragments that could be used for cutting tools – were discovered during a site survey in 2019. Upon their uncovering, and in-line with the project’s Cultural Heritage Management Plan, the Australian Rail Track Corporation Inland Rail, relevant Aboriginal parties, and their specialist technical advisers, have been working closely to develop a solution considered appropriate to the sites. The hand-over involved the Peak Hill Local Aboriginal Land Council (LALC), community members, and representatives from the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) Inland Rail, spending Monday visiting these sites across the region. Peak Hill Local Aboriginal Land Council Board Director, Judy Bell, said that the ARTC had liaised with local Indigenous groups, to protect any items found during the construction phase of the Inland Rail. “We appreciate ARTC Inland Rail’s commitment to working closely with our people and respecting our culture and heritage in a culturally-responsive way,” Ms Bell said. “We are very pleased with the process, and for us Peak Hill Traditional Custodians, returning artefacts in a culturally safe way back to country, is necessary for our local cultural history and is central for us as a people,” she added. ”Each object is unique and has a connec-

tion to its place of origin and tells a story that plays a vital part in a shared history.” Peak Hill Local Aboriginal Land Council Chairperson, Frances Robinson, added that the hand-over is a way of protecting these items, for those to come. “It is important for our current and future generations, to see the return of their ancestorial objects and cultural material, back home to country in Peak Hill, to the place where our old people, our ancestors left their footprint on our traditional land,” she said. ARTC Inland Rail Interim Chief Executive, Rebecca Pickering, said that the organisation is treating any such ﬁ nds, with due respect and sensitivity. ‘We value our relationships with Aboriginal communities and recognise their inherent connection to their traditional lands and their continuing responsibility of stewardship and caring for country and culture. ‘We will continue to consult with Aboriginal leaders at every opportunity to ensure progress on the Inland Rail program is carried out in cooperation with those Aboriginal communities. She said that the work in building the inland rail, will no doubt uncover more artefacts from many recently-unexplored Indigenous areas. “Inland Rail offers a unique opportunity to survey and explore areas previously untouched by cultural heritage investigation,” she said. “Potential discoveries will add to the wider community’s knowledge of and respect for Aboriginal people’s use of the land and Australia’s shared cultural heritage,” she concluded.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes

Funding for three regional airports I’M thrilled that three regional airports in the Parkes electorate have received a combined $5.7 million to undertake important safety upgrades under round three of the Australian government’s Regional Airports Program. Broken Hill City Council has received $4,998,048 to upgrade aircraft pavement movement areas at the Broken Hill Airport, Dubbo Regional Council was awarded $572,500 for stage three of a general aviation drainage upgrade at the Dubbo Regional Airport, and Narrabri Shire Council will beneﬁt from $96,925 to install hinged poles and LED ﬂoodlights to the apron at Narrabri Airport. This is fantastic news for each of these three councils that are committed to improving their airports to enhance future growth opportunities for their communities. Our regional airports provide a critical link to major cities and I’m proud the former Coalition Government recognised the importance of this for tourism, health and the economic development of our regional communities. The Regional Airports Program was established by the former coalition government, which provided $100 million over four years from 2019-20 to 2022-23 to help owners of regional airports deliver upgrades to improve air services.

LAST week I welcomed funding for three community groups in the Parkes electorate under the FRRR’s Strengthening Rural Communities – Rebuilding Regional Communities (RRC) program. Warren Chamber Music Festival Incorporated has been awarded $10,000 to facilitate three concert programs as part of the 2023 Warren Chamber Music Festival. Featuring a classical ensemble along with local musicians, these concerts will help to promote community cohesion and attract tourists to enhance Warren’s recovery from COVID-19. Ozﬁsh Unlimited Limited has also received $10,000 to improve the condition of the Coolaburragundy River at Coolah. The restoration project will bring the community together for a carp muster event, tree planting and weed control activities. Moree Cultural Art Foundation Limited was the third recipient, securing an $8,900 grant for its Yarn Bombing Project which will see trees around Moree wrapped in brightly coloured crochet and knitted scarves to encourage community connection and boost tourism.

Time to reflect this Australia Day THIS Australia Day I encourage people throughout the Parkes electorate to acknowledge and celebrate the positive contributions many different people have made to our country – from the Aboriginal Australians whose families have been here for thousands of years to all the people who continue to migrate from overseas. Our history has been complex, and the birth of this nation has been a painful one for many people, which is still felt today.

In 2023 we can and should think about how we can continue to move forward both as one people and as many. We should think about our achievements, focus on our strengths, and draw upon what works to make sure every person in Australia can celebrate being part of this country, no matter their background. I wish everyone in the Parkes electorate a happy Australia Day and thank you all for your contribution to

Since the Federal Labor Government pulled funding for this vital expansion, I’ve been working with the Premier, Deputy Premier, and Minister for Regional Health Bronnie Taylor, to highlight the importance of this investment. This announcement also complements the $149.5 million expansion of the Isolated Travel and Accommodation Assistance Scheme (IPTAAS), announced as part of the 202223 NSW Government budget.

Dozens of worthy projects across the Parkes electorate have been funded under this program in recent years and I encourage all community groups to consider whether this grant opportunity may be suitable for any projects they may wish to explore. Applications close in early February. Further information is available on the Community Grants Hub or the DVA website.

Whether you’re interested in playing golf or not, we want to encourage people to gather socially, and if they’re being active then that’s even better.

This funding will allow the committee to construct a covered timber deck, complete with tables, chairs, fan and downlights, and it will be fully accessible to anyone with mobility issues to get involved in the social and physical beneﬁts of the club!

Plenty happening on and off the greens, in February THERE is just the one outing of social bowls to report on this week, but the “REVS” will be going up next month, with a plethora of activities on-and-off the greens happening in February. But ﬁ rst to the Thursday social bowls results, where we saw Clifton Harris, Kerry Martin, and Bill Wilkie reign supreme and collect the ﬁ rst prize pool with the runners-up spot going to Scottie Lincoln, Des Lincoln, and Steve Buttsworth – nice bit of handicapping, Mr Starter! Looking forward, the clubhouse should be rocking on Friday, February 10 from 6pm as our Annaul Presentation of

Trophies/Awards takes place. There will be a sausage sizzle of sorts for all husbands, wives, partners, children, and guests but, to help with the catering, we need to know who is turning up! To that effect, a nomination sheets (of sorts) has been placed on the Noticeboard and, it would help if you and your family are coming, to indicate sooner, rather than later. The Zone Triples and Fours in the Presidents Discipline will also be played at Narromine Bowling Club over two weekends in February with the Triples Kicking off on Saturday morning, February 4,

and continuing right throughout the weekend via knockout until we have a winner. The following weekend, it will be the turn for all those who have entered the Fours Championships, commencing on Saturday morning, February 11 with a winner to be announced before close of play on Sunday. Narromine Bowling Club also has three entries contesting the Triples on February 4, and just the one Fours squad lining-up the next weekend. The Clubs Annual Report is also now available for those members who wish to peruse the journey the club has undertaken in 2021/2022.

Also on the noticeboard, is the AGM Invitation to members which this year has been gazette for Saturday, FEBRUARY 18 from 10am in the Club House. If any member wishes to include an item for discussion to be placed on the agenda or for nominations for the Board of Directors, these are now being called for. The First of our 2023 Club Championships are set to commence on Saturday, February 18 as well with the nomination sheets for the Club Fours been posted on the old Noticeboard. With just over three weeks to get your teams together, sooner, rather than later, should be your

trip to the aforementioned Noticeboard. Along the same theme, the Nomination Sheet for the Club Triples has also been posted, so again check out the dates, get you teams in, and have a go! The Selectors (whoever they may be?) will also be picking our team for the opening round of pennants for Sunday, February 19. So, if you wish to play pennants for Narromine Bowling Club, get your name up on the Nom sheet to avoid missing the proverbial boat. Well, that’s it for me for this week, I hope to catch up with you up at the “BOWLY”!

Weekend golf interrupted; Tony Top field sees wins Saturday event Dale win stableford event LAST Saturday’s cool and pleasant weather conditions, attracted a top field of Geriatric Golfers to the course for our weekly competition. The ladies were drawn to play the back nine, with a field of seven players. The hard working Dale Harding returned an excellent score of 23 stableford points to win the event. There was a tie for second place between Anne Harmer and Maida O’Mally on 21 points with a count-back needed to decide the second placegetter with the trophy going to Maida. Well played to all the ladies with bad luck to Anne, but she could have saved her handicap! Again this week, there was no winner of the ladies’ nearest-the-pin, so the prize jackpots. The NAGA prize was, however, won by Bev Woods with 15 points. Over on the front nine, there were 17 men battling it out for the major prize. Here we had another tie between Ron Jackson and Mal McIntyre both on 28 points, excellent scores which needed a count-back to decide the winner. This eventually went to Mal; bad luck “Jacko”, but you could have saved your handicap also. Well done Mal – hope you have some winners for us next week. Once again, as with the ladies, there was no winner of the nearest-the-pin prize which now jackpots to next week. The NAGA prize for the men went to Malcolm Fraser on 12 points – Mal blamed his putter for his bad score! It was an enjoyable round of golf for all players, with the very good scores returned, not doubt helped by the dry conditions existing at the moment where there is plenty of run on the fairways. Over to the pool table, we went with only three players lining-up for the pool champion title of the week. The fi rst match saw Greg Kearines give Norm Lewis a real beating to advance to the fi nal where he met Terry Willis. Good to see “Kearo” back on deck following recent surgery. In the fi nal, Willis gave Greg a lesson by sinking the black with a long double to the corner pocket leaving Greg with four balls still on the table with Terry the Pool Champ for the week. Next Saturday, the girls will be on the front nine and the fellas on the back with the usual hit off time of 9.30am. A good week to all – see you all on the 19th!

THERE is not a lot to report this week, as the weekend golf was interrupted by rain. On Saturday, however, the competition escaped the weather and a ﬁeld of 12-players took part in the 18-hole Par event. Winner was that ever-consistent golfer, Tony Harding, who returned a score of Plus 3 with the runner-up Peter Hutchinson on Plus 2. Hutchinson had a ﬁeld day, also taking-out both nearest-thepin events on the ninth and 17th holes with the long drive on the fourth won by Doug Potter. The jackpot hole this week was on the third, and the winner was Shane Riddell. On Sunday, play was severely interrupted by the rain which cut-out just around hit-off time and, even though the course was damp in places, some six hardy

golfers hit-off in the Stableford event with the winner Alec Sambrook with 33 points. Daniel Coen was second only one point behind on 32, but there was no winner of the nearestthe-pin on the ninth. However, Dan Coen won the prize on the 17th. The long drive on the 15th, went to Tony Harding but the jackpot was not won. Next week, the events will be as per the Club programme – Saturday, January 28 Single Irish, and on Sunday the 29th, a two-person Ambrose. The Wednesday Business House Competition attracted a healthy ﬁeld of 66 golfers with the winning team this week, “The Gerries” with an adjusted score of 18.75. There is a real battle on top of the leader board in this competi-

tion, with four teams in contention at the moment – “The Gerries” and “Dozer Chicks” are equal leaders on 38 points with the “Deep Divots” and “Epiroc” teams only one point behind on 37 points. Last week’s individual winners were Mitchell Rixon (27); Henry Buttsworth (23); Col Shepherdson (23); John Butcher (22), and Max McPherson (22). The nearest-the-pin winners were, on the third hole, John Everett; the ninth, Ross King; the 10th, Bill Gibbs; and the 17th, Anne Harmer. The long drive on the ﬁ rst hole went to Henry Buttsworth and, on the 15th, to Des Weir. The Business House competition is once again very popular, with very good ﬁelds each week. That’s all for this week – see you at the 19th.

Next week’s edition will be published on Thursday. Deadline is 12pm Tuesday. advertising news sports school

RACING NG REPORT ORT By COLIN HODGES

New Year’s Racing Carnival - Monday, January 2 EXCELLENT crowds attended the two-day Gilgandra Jockey Club New Year’s Racing Carnival with highlights including a winning treble for popular local trainer Kieren Hazelton at the New Year’s Eve meeting, and a dashing win by Cheptegei two days later in the Gilgandra Cup. The win by Turgenev over 1200 metres was a remarkable training feat by Kieren Hazelton as the gelding at the previous start contested a 2200 metres race in November when trained in Victoria. Sydney-based jockey Andrew Banks was who visiting family at Gulargambone, took the opportunity to handle the Hazelton runners, and they were all brilliant rides by an outstanding horseman. To the cheers of a big group of local owners, Turgenev (Andrew Banks, $7.50 to $4.60) stormed home from well back to score by almost two lengths from Bijara ($5) and She’s Just A Dream ($21) in the 1200 metres Easy Welding and Maintenance Maiden Handicap. Locals were again cheering when Hazelton and Banks combined to win the next two races with Mamelon ($26) in the 1100 metres Royal Hotel Benchmark 50 Handicap and Sizzling Star ($16) in the 1280 metres Damowsandmore Benchmark 50 Handicap. Apprenticed to Bryan Dixon at Gilgandra, Zara Lewis won the 1600 metres Crampton’s Carpets Benchmark 50 Handicap on the Wayne Martyn, Coonabarabran-trained Heza Charmer ($21) which swooped on the outside to beat Zachariah ($5) and Ollivander ($4.80 favourite). Bryan Dixon Racing together with Trev Rogers Electrical sponsored the class two hand-

2nd January 2023 - Gilgandra Jockey Club - Race 8 - Class 2 Hcp, 1200m - 1st, Sizzle Minizzle, Clayton Gallagher, Brett Robb. icap on Gilgandra Cup Day, won by the promising Sizzle Minizzle (Clayton Gallagher, $1.90 fav.) trained by Brett Robb at Dubbo. In the $45,000 Gilgandra Services Club Co-Op Gilgandra Cup, the Michael Mulholland, Dubbo-trained Cheptegei (Serg Lisnyy, $5.50) ﬁ nished best from midﬁeld to defeat Great Buy (Jake Barrett, $3.30) and the leader Vital Verse (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $7). Feature sprint, the 1100 metres Nutrien Ag Solutions/Bob Foran Memorial Town Plate saw the Melanie O’Gorman, Tamworth-trained So Country (Mikayla Weir, $2.45 fav.) come from fourth on the home turn to account for Moetta ($3.30) and Safado ($10).

Parkes Races – Saturday, January 21 LEADING jockey, Clayton Gallagher starred with four successive winners at Parkes on Saturday, including on Island Press in the feature event, the 1400-metres Parkes

Services Club Summer Cup. Given a charmed run behind the early leader, Vital Verse by Gallagher, the Dean Mirfi n, Bathurst-trained Island Press (from $3.50 to the $2.80 favourite) hit the lead in the straight and scored by a half-length from Petain (Tony Cavallo at $7) with Vital Verse(Jake Pracey-Holmes at $3) holding on for third. This completed a good week for Mirfi n who also won the Cowra Japan Cup at Orange last Sunday with Whatsin. The winning spree at Parkes for Clayton Gallagher, started with the Brett Robb, Dubbo-trained, last-start Gilgandra winner, Hardly The End in the 1000-metres Bob Skinner Painting And Decorating Benchmark 58 Handicap. In front from the outset, Hardly The End (the $2.25 favourite) shot-away in the straight for an almost five lengths win over Mighty Minnie (Will Stanley at $4) and Japingka (James Rogers at $21). From the Karen Lunn stable at Dubbo, the heavily-backed Accidental Mai Tai (from

$4.20 to the $2.90 favourite) with Gallagher aboard again, then won the 1200-metres D’Aquinos Grand Hotel Bottle Shop Maiden Handicap when coming from behind the leaders to beat Speudosa (Richard Bensley at $8.50) and Nymagee (Michael Heagney at $6.50). Bringing-up the fourth straight winner for Gallagher, the Connie Greig, Dubbo-trained Linden Tree (the $2.80 favourite) powered home from near the back of the ﬁeld to beat Noble Privilege (Serg Lisnyy at $41) and Sizzling Star (Andrew Banks at $7.50) in the 1400-metres Parkes Services Club Class 2 Handicap. Lightly-raced eight-year-old gelding, Listen To The Band, made it three wins from the last four starts for Dubbo trainer, Clint Lundholm when taking out the 1000-metres Hankook Tyres Benchmark 58 Handicap. Leading throughout, Listen To The Band (Jake Pracey-Holmes on the $1.35 favourite) was not seriously threatened when beating Keep On Going (Clayton Gallagher at $5.50) and Stone

(Hollie Hull at $20). Trained at Cowra by Kathryn Cahill for herself and her mother Margaret Cahill, Shylock, at the second run back from a spell, staged a good performance to win the 1600-metres Telescope Tyres & Batteries Country Boosted $30,000 Telescope Tyres & Batteries Benchmark 58 Handicap. A good front-running ride by Michael Heagney, saw Shylock ($20) round the home turn with a good break before going strongly to the line for a convincing win over Harley Fat Boy (Jake Pracey-Holmes at $8.50) and Cranky Creed (Ken Dunbar at $18). Will Stanley, the very promising Orange-based apprentice, again impressed when winning the 1600-metres Parkes Farm Centre Country Boosted Maiden Plate on the Luke Pepper, Scone trained, Espadrille. From midﬁeld, Espadrille (at $9) ﬁ nished best to account for Searchlight (Zara Lewis at $31) and King Qin (Serg Lisnyy at $21).
