>BART= ALL HEART IN ORR S. INGLIS GOLD RIBAND A top class renewal of the G1 Ladbrokes C F Orr S. at Caulfield GETS A GOLD STAR brought together nine individual Group 1 winners and it was the 6-year-old gelding Black Heart Bart (Aus) (Blackfriars {Aus}) who emerged victorious and in so doing, registered his fourth success at the highest level. Jockey Brad Rawiller kept things simple on the Darren Weir-trained winner settling mid- division out wide following a less than favourable draw. That draw ultimately proved no impediment to Black Heart Bart as he charted his course around the pack to get himself into a challenging position as the field approached the home turn. At that point Turn Me Loose (NZ) (Iffraaj {GB}), who had been at the head of affairs for most of the trip, still held sway, though stalked by Malaguerra (Aus) (Magnus {Aus}), as Rawiller began to stoke the winner up for his effort.
