Gollan, who is well on the way to winning six straight Brisbane premierships, trained in for 10 years before shifting camp to in 2010.

“Splitter has been consistent without getting the result but things worked out today.

He saddled Splitter ($8), who got up in the last stride, and The Room ($3.10) who had no luck in finishing fifth.
