Nourbese won his third race in a row on Saturday. The Ricky Maingard-trained horse had to work hard in the final straight this time. South African Jockey Piere Corne Orffer did well to secure a good position behind the leader Padre Pio who was the main challenger. Padre Pio showed some good composure and he gave Nourbese a hard time in the last 200m. Orffer had to use the stick to ask more from Nourbese who overtook Padre Pio in the last 100m of the race.
