On Sunday, Casino Seventeen became the 23rd stakes-winner for his sire when taking out the $125,000 Listed Premeirs Cup (2200m) at Pinjarra for Grant and Alana Williams.

The five year-old gelding was a hot favourite and won by more than five lengths taking his overall record to seven wins and 14 placings from 28 starts with prizemoney topping $380,000.
