The treble came on the heels of a double on Friday night which brought him level with the early season leader Vlad Duric on 46 wins.

After a slow start to the season, the champion jockey enjoying the sort of strike rate that took him to the title last year.

Moreira had a winning start to the afternoon when he scored on WHAT NOW (State City - Classic Look by Grosvenor). He then had an armchair ride on GORDON ROBERTS (Encosta De Lago - Gordon's by Kaapstad).

Moreita brought up his treble with CAIYAYA (Colombia - Pesaro by Pevero) who has returned to form with his second consecutive win in the Class 4, Div 2 - 1100m sprint on the polytrack.
