After a Group One win on quality colt in the , Dwayne Dunn has capped a successful Victoria Derby day with a victory on .

Dunn steered the -trained Tofane to a 1-1/4-length success in Saturday’s Group Three Furphy Sprint (1100m) for mares at Flemington, bringing up a winning double on the program for the jockey.

Dunn was one of two riders to snare winning doubles on the day with champion jockey winning the Group One Victoria Derby on and the Group Two Wakeful Stakes on .

Tofane ($6) defeated with Miss Iano another three quarters of a length away third.

Dunn’s day also included a third placing on Soul Patch in the Victoria Derby.

“It’s been an excellent day,” Dunn said.

“I thought I had some really good chances coming into today and it’s hard to get too bullish on a Group One day because big races are not easy to win.

“But I really liked Exceedance who came out on top in the Stakes and Soul Patch ran terrific in the Derby.

“I thought Tofane was a great chance in the last race and she has got the job done.”

It was a second straight Group Three win for four-year-old Tofane who took her overall record to four wins from nine starts.
