Training partners Patrick and Michelle Payne claim a winning quartet at Flemington on Saturday
Jimmy The Bear delivered a landmark Flemington four-timer for sibling co-trainers Patrick and Michelle Payne with victory in The David Bourke (1620m). The consistent gelding made amends for a last start Flemington defeat with a strong performance under rising star apprentice jockey Tom Prebble, who sealed a running treble with the win. Michelle Payne hailed the Flemington milestone as 'a huge team effort'. 'Patrick has worked so hard at home with everybody, it's a huge team effort,' Payne said. ' Jimmy is the stable favourite, so beautiful to do it with him.' Earlier on the card, Payne saddled winners Buccleuch, Stop The Rock and Bold Soul. Patrick Payne trained four provincial winners previously at Mildura in 2022. The four-timer bettered Michelle Payne's best efforts in the saddle before she turned her hand to training. 'I nearly rode the quaddie legs at Bendigo one day,' Payne laughed. 'I got pipped on the post, so three sadly.' Payne praised the 'beautiful' rides of Billy Egan (Buccleuch and Stop The Rock) and nephew Tom Prebble (Bold Soul and Jimmy The Bear) at Flemington. Prebble rated Jimmy The Bear nicely three back the rail but needed galloping room in the straight. 'Beautiful ride by Tom, he didn't panic,' Payne said. 'Obviously he had to guide him through a tight run and the horse just did the rest.' Jimmy The Bear is set to advance to the Listed Winter Championship Series Final (1600m) at Flemington on July 5. 'All going well, I can't see why not,' Payne said. 'He's training on beautifully and today was a really effortless win.' Prebble enjoyed riding another winner for the family. 'He put his best foot forward today and he was super,' Prebble said. 'He's a big horse, I knew he would be able to push his way out if I needed to, but had to wait for the race to unfold, Flemington is a beautiful track and usually every horse does gets its chance.' Casino Seventeen, the 2024 Perth Cup winner, finished off well to run second in The David Bourke at his first start in Melbourne for Cranbourne trainer Gavin Bedggood. Holymanz and Pounding rounded out the top four. Earlier, Payne enjoyed the win of progressive three-year-old Stop The Rock. 'He's a lovely horse, he's a real sleeper actually,' Payne said. 'All of his trials before he raced were pretty moderate and Patrick put the blinkers on his first start and he won at good odds at Warrnambool, he just seems to step up to the mark on race day.'

Collingwood: ‘The Lamington' pad's red hot auction result
An ultra-cool Collingwood apartment known as the Lamington has smashed expectations after selling for more than $1m on Saturday. The two-bedroom home at 3F/68 Oxford St with red tiles, metals and glass throughout was advertised with a $900,000-$950,000 asking range. Short-listed for an Australian Institute of Architects' interiors award, the warehouse conversion is located within a factory complex that formerly belonged to one of Australia's first department store chains, Foy & Gibson. The apartment's owner commissioned architectural practice Rexroth Mannasmann Collective to transform its shell into an eclectic abode with a wall of tall windows, 3.6m-high steel-trussed ceilings and polished hardwood floorboards. A horizontal red line features on many of the walls including in the open-plan living and dining area is much like a strip of jam inside a lamington – contributing to the apartment's unofficial name. There's also a central pod within the home containing a laundry and bathroom. One of the pod's walls has a flip-top desk and foldaway bed. The residence has been featured in both Vogue Living and the Architectural Review magazines. Jellis Craig inner north partner Simon Shrimpton said a $900,000 bid started the auction as three bidders competed for the 'very cool' apartment. It was placed on the market at $950,000 and ended up fetching $1.025m. 'The apartment sold a young couple from Fitzroy and the underbidders were a couple downsizing from the eastern suburbs,' Mr Shrimpton said. 'The couple who bought were very excited, they were the first to inquire and the first ones through the door at the first open for inspection,' Mr Shrimpton said. 'They were absolutely in love with the place and all the design aspects and nuances it has.' Mr Shrimpton said that for inner Melbourne apartments, well-designed homes with stylish flair tended to attract a lot of interest. 'Bespoke, architecturally-designed apartments are few and far between and when they are offered to the market, buyers will always line up to compete for them,' he added. Also on Saturday, a double-fronted, Victorian-era house at 1 Peel St, Newport, sold for $1.21m. The three-bedroom house, in need of some work including replastering, had a $1.05m reserve. The Agency property partners Leigh Melbourne and Noah Lautman-Wurt had the listing. Mr Melbourne said that a young couple from the western suburbs purchased the property, out of three bidders. 'The bidding was fast and furious,' Mr Melbourne said. He noted that homes at Peel St's bottom end, near The Strand in Williamstown, did not often come up for sale. 'In my 25 years covering the area, it's the second property I have sold down here,' he said. Mr Lautman-Wurt said the auction started with a $1m bid, with a buyer's advocate and family among the underbidders.
