Ignite The Fire and stablemate Sweet Valeria earned spots in Friday night's $175,000 decider with a win and third respectively in heats at the track.
Rickie Alchin-trained star Lux Aeterna was a class above in the final, winning by 26 metres, but Ignite The Fire was the best of the rest. Sweet Valeria was fifth.
Goadsby, who also had runners at Albion Park, Newcastle and Menangle on the weekend, was pleased with the effort of Ignite The Fire, which was 16m ahead of third. He said Ignite The Fire, Sweet Valeria and Luvareschs would stay down south for the VicBred series.
At Newcastle on Friday night, Winamotza (Steve Kilroy), Uncle Gregory (Chris Sutherland) and Redfox Raider (Tom Ison) qualified for the Hawkesbury to Hunter final with heat wins.
