It was third placegetter Hot Digity Boom that ensured his owners enjoyed a huge pay day too by being the first Inglis Pink Bonus-eligible runner home.
In doing so, connections won the $200,000 bonus attached to the race which, on top of their third-place prizemoney, saw them take home an incredible $290,000.
“It’s amazing, what a scheme. To come here and win $200,000 for running third, plus $90,000 for the prizemoney, it’s outstanding. It’s like winning a Group 1,’’ Hot Digity Boom’s part owner Shona Drechsler said.
“This is my biggest win ever in ownership and we didn’t even win the race! I was pretty much screaming my lungs out!’’
Hot Digity Boom was purchased at the Inglis Premier Sale from Eureka Stud for $80k.
