Having his second starts following an encouraging debut third at Mornignton
earlier this month, the David Brideoake trained youngster shared the lead with
runner-up Yulong May, but proved much the better in the run to the line.He forged clear to win the 1000 metre maiden by two lengths.
Retained to race by his breeder, Shamino is the third winner from good Victorian metro winner Elumino, a winner of nearly $300,000 in prizemoney by El Moxie (USA).
Shamino is the fifth winner (one in the Phillippines) for Shamus Award, who stands this spring at a fee of $11,000.
