Trainer Stephen Gray returned from holidays to witness an impressive maiden victory of Strubeli in the $65,000 Initiation Stakes Div. 2 over 1200m on the Polytrack on Sunday.

The well-backed Itiswhatitis emerged the winner in the $55,000 Class 4 race over 1600m on Sunday, but the race was however marred by the fall of three jockeys midrace, but luckily none of them suffered serious injuries.

Only one person was happier than trainer Stephen Gray when Bay Of Island took out the $55,000 Class 4 Stakes over 1700m on the Polytrack on Friday night.

The feature event on an all polytrack card this evening at Kranji is a Class Three and only one competitor in the field has ever scored against this grade before.

The first association between Powerful Tree and Danny Beasley paid instant dividends when the pairing took out Friday's $95,000 Open Benchmark 97 race over 1100m on Polytrack.
