Newcastle horse In Cahoots has overcome a pre-race incident in the barrier to finish third in today’s final race at Flemington.
The four year old threw jockey Damien Oliver off his back, delaying the start of the race.
Once the Group Two event got underway, the $10,000 gelding, trained by Maitland’s Phil Atkins, finished a gallant third.
“Dream Fontaine’s going to make him earn it but Deep Field… In Cahoots and Charlie Boy ran fourth.”
