Trained by Danny Shum and ridden by Zac Purton, Champion Method has had a good grounding at the barrier trials and raced on the pace before kicking on to win the 1000m class four event by half a length in a blanket finish.

Champion Method was a $400,000 Inglis Easter purchase for McEvoy Mitchell Racing / Belmont Bloodstock Agency from the Glenlogan Park draft and is the second winner from stakes-winning Hussonet (USA) mare Hijack Hussy.
