The three-year-old, a $10 chance, got the nod by a head over Call Me Royal ($4.60) in Saturday's Jack Denham Handicap (1100m).

In a busy finish, ($5.50) was another neck third.

Moore went so far as to put Hostwin Supreme 2016 Group One Winterbottom Stakes winner Takedown but admitted he had been a work in progress having had more barrier trials than races.

“He is the best sprinter I have trained in my career,” Moore said.

“He is better than Takedown.

“But he has been very in the gates and it has taken a long time to work him out.

“It has taken a lot of effort from a lot of people including the barrier attendants.”

Moore said Hostwin Supreme would head to Brisbane for the Listed Stakes (1200m) on June 8.

The win was the gelding's second from seven starts and followed his midweek breakthrough at Farm earlier this month.

His Glyn Schofield agreed Hostwin Supreme could go on with things now he had mended his ways.

“It was a really good win,” Schofield said.

“He's come back a better horse and will be winning again.”
